2018 Vitus Rapide CR GX Eagle 29er HT MTB
The Rapide CR Carbon HT Bike is a dedicated and thoroughbred race-proven platform aimed at those seeking a high-level performance bike for cross-country and marathon racing.
Stiff and Light Carbon Frame Built around a stiff and ultra-light T700 HM-UD carbon frame and featuring a trail-refined geometry, the Rapide CR Carbon HT Bike delivers impeccable handling characteristics and has been optimised for 29" wheels.
Complete with SRAM's race-ready GX Eagle drivetrain, SRAM Level T hydraulic disc brakes, and a WTB wheelset, this lightweight carbon MTB is ready for take-off. Trail Stability The Rapide CR Carbon HT Bike frame features sculpted tubing for increased stand over height; a short headtube and chainstays combined with a low bottom bracket create a low centre of gravity for improved handling and stability on fast sections of trail. Oversized bottom bracket area increases lateral stiffness for better acceleration by transmitting every ounce of pedalling energy through the drivetrain to the rear wheel.
29er Wheelset The 29er wheel size rolls over obstacles and rocks with greater efficiency allowing you to carry more speed for less effort helping to reduce rider fatigue and improve performance.
