SENTIER 29 VR – BUILT FOR PLAY

 

Vitus’ test winning Sentier is bigger and better than before. A playful, nimble, and aggressive aluminium MTB, the Sentier is a bike you can hammer on, whatever your skill level.

 

Updated Alloy Frame

 

Building on the Sentier’s “MBR Trail Bike of the Year” and various other test victories, we have given it a full design overhaul for 2018. We started with updated geometry, which is longer, lower and slacker than ever before. We then topped this with Boost hubs and tyre clearance for up to 2.5”. This all translates to more speed, more control and more fun out on the trails.

 

It is not just the frame that makes it special, every component has been carefully considered and selected to piece together a ride that begs the Sentier to be ridden harder and faster than ever before.
