Vitus Rapide FS CRX Mountain Bike 2021

Vitus Rapide FS CRX Mountain Bike

The ideal short travel full-suspension bike for cross-country racing, trail riding adventures and rapid fitness cycling anywhere, the Rapide FS CRX is engineered to ride fast and agile. This full suspension bike features a full-carbon frame that's equipped with RockShox SID suspension front and rear, a Shimano XT 12-Speed drivetrain with a wide ranging 10-51T cassette and hydraulic disc brakes. Also, this bike rolls upon DT Swiss X1700 Spline wheels wrapped in Maxxis Rekon Race EXO Tubeless Ready tyres.

Short Travel Full Suspension Bike

The Vitus Rapide FS is a bike built with speed and performance in mind. This short travel 100mm ripper makes short work of climbing to the top of the mountain, snaps around the singletrack, and dances down the trail. This bike combines speed and fun and proves that bigger travel does not always mean better days out.

Ideal for Cross Country and Trail Centre Riding

This has become a staff favourite for anything between the flowy trail centres and natural features, making you challenge yourself and demand more. Climbing hills starts to become as enjoyable as the reward at the top with heaps of self-satisfaction.

Shimano XT 12-Speed Groupset with Hydraulic Disc Brakes

This model means business with its fiery racing red colour matching the performance on offer from Rockshox SID SL Ultimate forks and SIDLuxe rear shock. Shimano 1x12 speed XT drivetrain is crisp and reliable ensuring you get the shift you need, with the powerful Shimano M8100 XT brakes. Acceleration and control are offered by DT Swiss X1700 wheels and Maxxis Rekon Race tyres. Finishing this setup off is the Ritchey WCS components.

Easy Assembly

When you order a bike, one of our trained mechanics will carefully prepare and pack your bike for shipping. Upon delivery, the assembly is simple and all necessary tools and plastic pedals are conveniently included in the box.

Depending on the delivery service and destination, bikes will either be delivered in a large or a small box. Below is a guide as to how your bike will arrive:

• All bikes for delivery within the UK and Republic of Ireland will be delivered in a large box, except for balance bikes and BMX bikes, which are always delivered in manufacturer’s boxes.
• All bikes for delivery within the EU on a standard service will be delivered in a large box. If an express delivery option is chosen, your bike will be packed into a small box. Again, the exception is balance bikes and BMX bikes, which are always delivered in manufacturer’s boxes.
• All bikes for worldwide delivery outside the EU will be delivered in small boxes.
