Vitus Sommet 29 CRX Mountain Bike (2022)
The big-hitting Vitus Sommet CRX 29 Mountain Bike is all about the rush. The rush of air, the rush of trees passing you in a blur, the rush of tyres through dirt, the rush of light, the rush of sounds - the brief snapshots that flood your senses and place you deep in the zone.
And then there’s the rush that boils up inside you and the feeling of total control as you float from takeoff to landing and rip down descents, from bike park to big mountain. The rush as you roll out at the bottom of the trail and chase one last uplift. The rush that pushes you to explore your limits without overstepping the mark. This is for the full-face thrillseekers and the diehards. This is why you do it.
The Sommet is a bike that you sit within, not perch on top. It’s a powerful rider position and together you are a team. Eagerly shred the refined berms and manicured obstacles of a trail centre, but take a step into the wild and that’s where this bike really comes alive, revelling in the unpredictability of natural features and steep, technical ground. With volume added to the carbon front triangle, stability is rock solid without compromising agility. It’s not a bike for taking just any line, it’s a bike for taking the best line. A bike that tracks so accurately it rewards you with time. Time to line up the next obstacle and pick your route as the trail unfolds in front of you.
Whether threading the needle through Enduro tape or dropping into your favourite descent, speed comes easily to the Sommet. It thrives in the chaos of steep and turbulent trails. Bringing calm where all around there is frenzy.
