Vitus Sommet 27 CRS Mountain Bike 2021

Vitus Sommet 27 CRS Mountain Bike

The Vitus Sommet 27 CRS is equipped with RockShox suspension and a Shimano SLX 12-Speed wide-ranging drivetrain. It also has a carbon/alloy frame with modern enduro-optimised geometry and suspension performance that's ideal for all-mountain riding, enduro descents, steep climbs and all-day epics. Plus, it rolls upon DT Swiss E1900 wheels wrapped in Maxxis MaxxGrip/MaxxTerra tyres for a superb balance of fast rolling and high-traction while also being tubeless ready.

Enduro Optimised Geometry and Suspension

The all new Vitus Sommet is a 170mm big hitting enduro bike that features a redesigned carbon front triangle paired with an aluminium rear end. With revamped geometry and improved suspension kinematics, the Sommet is ready to tackle the roughest trails there are, from big mountain alpine descents to steep technical enduro trails.

Improved Suspension Leverage Curve and Sensitivity

Vitus has straightened this bike's leverage curve and increased the progressivity to improve the small bump sensitivity and mid stroke support to keep you in control when the trails get rough. Along with improved geometry the new Sommet also has more seat post insertion which allows for a longer dropper post to be fitted. Basically, the Sommet is better in every way. If you want a confidence inspiring Enduro bike that will help guide you down the roughest trails then the Sommet is for you.

RockShox Suspension and Shimano SLX 12-Speed Drivetrain

The Sommet 27 CRS is ready for you to hit your trail of choice. The 27 CRS comes with 170mm of frame travel, matched with buttery smooth 170mm Rockshox Lyric Select RC forks paired with a Rockshox Super Delux+ RT rear shock to keep you planted when the trails get rough. Shimano's high performance 1x12 wide range SLX drivetrain provides reliable shifting for race day while the Shimano SLX brakes provide ample stopping power on those long, steep descents.

DT Swiss E1900 Wheels and Maxxis Tubeless Ready Tyres

Rolling on the high performance DT Swiss E1900 wheels and a Maxxis Assegai / Minion DHR II tubeless ready tyre combo to provide confidence inspiring grip. Finished with Nukeproof components and a Brand-X Ascend dropper post you’ll have the confidence take your enduro riding to the next level with the Vitus Sommet 27 CRS Mountain Bike.

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.
