The Vitus Vitesse EVO CRX eTap AXS: An all-round racer
Sharp on climbs and agile on descents, the Vitus Vitesse EVO CRX is a lightweight road bike designed to perform uphill, downhill and everywhere in between.
The all-rounder in the Vitus Performance Road lineup, the Vitesse has been on a bit of an evolutionary journey of late. The new EVO iteration features our monocoque (one piece) unidirectional carbon fiber frame that not only looks clean (and fast), but also has no joints requiring extra reinforcing material to hold the frame together — reducing weight and helping make the bike more compliant. We’ve also aerodynamically optimized the tubing so that it’s not quite as slippery as our ZX-1 EVO, but still is plenty efficient at the front of a paceline.
The geometry is balanced yet performance-oriented, giving you control through turns while also being responsive to bursts of acceleration or steeper ramps. Stiffness is engineered into the frame where you need it most, ensuring precious energy won’t be wasted — something we all need on those long, hilly days. The modern frame clearance also enables space for up to a 30mm tire, giving you options when the road surface becomes less than ideal.
Light enough to dance up climbs but with the versatility of an all-rounder, the Vitesse EVO will have you floating up legendary climbs and scorching personal bests — an uncompromising road bike that’ll meet you at your best.
