RRP: £749.99
Description
Winner of MBR’s “Hardtail of the Year 2014” the Vitus Sentier returns for 2015. From backwoods singletrack to trail centre assaults, the Sentier range of aggressive trail hardtails have been designed with fast paced, action packed epics in mind!
With a super-light triple-butted 6061-T6 aluminium frame combined with a high performance components package the Sentier will deliver on all fronts!
The Sentier features a Suntour Raidon XC fork; Shimano Deore/FSA groupset with WTB/Formula wheelset and Vitus finishing kit to complete the package.
Super-Light Mechanical Formed Triple-Butted 6061-T6 Aluminium Frame
Our super-light 6061-T6 aluminium frame has been triple-butted to reduce weight and tune the tubeset for improved handling and all round performance.
Our aggressive trail geometry has been designed around 27.5” (650b) wheels; a short headtube and low bottom bracket keep the centre of gravity low to provide improved handling whilst the larger wheel size will roll over roots and rocks with ease.
