Description
Introducing the award-winning Vitus Zenium carbon bike – ready to tackle anything you throw at it. Local criteriums, speedy sportives, weekend club runs or your go-to winter training bike, the Zenium has you covered. Redeveloped to be a carbon frameset in 2019, we’ve now expanded the Zenium range for 2020.
The Zenium is designed to offer the perfect blend of comfort and performance for a great all-round riding experience. The compact geometry and slender dropped seat stays increase vertical compliance for a comfortable, balanced ride. The T700 HM-UD, disc brake specific, full carbon fork features a tapered carbon steerer for steering precision and inspiring handling, balancing confidence and control. We’ve also allowed for more tyre clearance, ensuring you can fit up to 32mm tyres to tailor your ride. The frame is a fine balance of classic tube shapes and modern features, put together in a package that keeps weight to a minimum.
Make no mistake, the Zenium wants to go fast! However, the subtle nods to all-day comfort ensure that if you are looking for a carbon road all-rounder, then the Zenium is for you.
The Zenium CRW Disc bike is a focused on meeting the needs of female cyclists. The finishing kit is female-specific, offering narrower handlebars, a shorter stem, shorter cranks, a women’s saddle, and Shimano’s new 105 ‘short-reach’ levers.
This model features the redesigned 2019 Shimano 105 R7000 11 speed groupset. The new development of 105 from Shimano adds some superb ‘trickle-down’ technology from the Dura Ace and Ultegra groupsets. One of the highlights is the new, smaller shape shifters, powering the 105 R7020 hydraulic flat mount disc brakes. Coming in a gloss black finish, this new 105 groupset looks fantastic on this bike.
Wheels are Vitus clinchers, featuring 21mm internal rim widths, and a new, lighter set of hubs for 2020. They are paired with the super cool Vee Road Runner tan sidewall 28mm tyres. The new Vitus Switch axles give you the option to leave the lever handle firmly secured in either wheel or remove it for extra weight saving and aero gains.
The cockpit is built with Vitus’ own 6061 Aluminium aero bar and stem, combined with a Vitus 27.2mm aluminium layback seatpost with a female-specific, tried and tested Vitus road saddle.
