Vitus ZX-1 EVO RED ETap Road Bike

Vitus ZX-1 EVO RED eTap Road Bike

Equipped with SRAM’s top of the range Red Etap 2×12 speed wireless groupset and built around a redesigned full carbon fibre frameset, this pro-level version of the Vitus ZX-1 road bike will fire you to the top step of the podium. It’s UCI approved and to enhance it further, it comes with an aerodynamic Reynolds AR58/62 DB Carbon wheelset.

Advanced Aero Road Bike Frame

Vitus has done the testing and know that the EVO exhibits up to 45% less drag than the previous model. But that means nothing until you unleash it outside and feel it for yourself. In the world of aero bikes, amongst all the jargon and data, it’s easy to lose sight of what really matters. That to feel fast is to be fast, and you can’t feel fast in a wind tunnel.

Fast Accelerating Carbon Fibre Frameset

The pleasure of speed only exists in the real world. Out there on the road. The sensation of putting power through your pedals and feeling the bike surge underneath you. And the faster you go, the easier it becomes. That’s where the ZX-1 EVO excels. That’s the bike working with you as the road snakes and the wind changes. That’s aero.

Aero Riding Position

The performance geometry slots the rider into a naturally aerodynamic position, so whether racing flat-out, sprinting for road signs or charging on the front of the chaingang, the EVO gathers momentum quickly and holds speed with ease. Vitus has made this bike fast. They know it rides fast. The rest is up to you.

Technologies:

• Full Monocoque Frame: The ZX-1 EVO features a true monocoque frame, manufactured as a single piece. Comfort and performance go hand-in-hand, while eliminating any joins creates greater strength and results in a light weight, eye catching frame. Less aerodynamic drag, for ultimate speed when out on the open road
• Race-Fit Geometry: Race-Fit geometry is reserved for Vitus’ performance led race bikes. The aim is to put the rider in the most advantageous position possible, maximising power output and aerodynamic positioning, whilst maintaining comfort
• Dual Fork Design: Vitus has introduced frame size specific fork geometry maintaining fit and handling characteristics across the full size curve. By adjusting the rake on the smaller sizes this ensures handling isn’t compromised, whilst at the same time giving riders the same toe overlap versus the bigger frame sizes
• Tyre Clearance: Performance shouldn’t come about at the expense of practicality, that’s why the ZX-1 EVO brings 700c x 30 tyre clearance across all sizes. For added comfort and control, without compromising on speed

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.

Please note that due to ongoing issues in the global bike supply chain, manufacturers may substitute certain component items due to availability. In this situation, they will be replaced with the same quality or better performing parts.
