While some components underperform – the X-Fusion fork and Shimano brakes most notably – they're okay for the price. I'm poised to order a Vitus Mythique VR 29er. Buy your Vitus Mythique 29 VRX Bike (SX Eagle 1x12 - 2020) - Full Suspension Mountain Bikes from Wiggle Cycle To Work.
The first bike in our Field Trip value bike review series is the Vitus Mythique 29 VRX, a 140mm-travel 29er that'll cost you $2,000 USD to get your hands on. The brand new Vitus Mythique ticks a lot of boxes and seeing as good value trail bikes are right up our street at off-road.cc we got the 29 VRS version in for review. Free worldwide delivery available. Plenty of suspensions, tick.
Our price . Plus I'll use it for a few café-stop XC rides with mates, probably one a month, up to about 50 miles.
12 speed drivetrain, tick.
PRESS RELEASE: Vitus The Mythique was developed around a proven Horst-link 4-bar suspension design, allowing us to develop an accessible, capable and performance-driven trail bike. I plan to use the bike for trail riding, small local trails once or twice a week, then once a month to either Swinley or something similar. Vitus has released the new Vitus Mythique trail platform in both 27.5in and 29in today, with full bike pricing from just £1249.99. The Vitus Mythique is pitched as a first full suspension mountain bike for someone who wants to try a bit of everything. Sorted geometry, tick. Withing budget, tick. Here's a first look ahead of our test time.
A dropper post, tick. 29er wheels, tick. The 1x12 drivetrain is a real advantage and the geometry suits whatever kind of riding you fancy, while the tyres are a great spec for UK use. The Vitus Mythique 29 VRS is a solid performer at the budget end of the scale. Has anyone bought a 2020 Vitus Mythique yet?
