Vitus Escarpe 27 Cr Mountain Bike 2021

The All New Escarpe – We’ve taken everything we loved about our Escarpe platform and made it better. Quick up the hills and even quicker going back down. A true confidence inspiring all mountain trail bike.

Our all new Escarpe features a redesigned carbon front triangle paired with an aluminium rear end. With revamped geometry and improved suspension kinematics to ensure the Escarpe climbs efficiently on the way up and descends with playful confidence on the way back down, our all new Escarpe will take your riding to the next level. We straightened the leverage curve and increased the progressivity to improve the small bump sensitivity, mid stroke support to keep you in control when the trails get rough. Along with improved geometry the new Escarpe also has improved seat post insertion which allows for a longer dropper post to be fitted as standard ensuring you get the most comfortable riding position on the way up and back down. Basically our all new Escarpe is better in every way. If you want a confidence inspiring all mountain bike that can climb as well as a trail bike and descend like an enduro bike, then our Escarpe is for you.

Out of the box the Escarpe 27 CR is ready to hit your trail of choice. The 27 CR comes with 140mm of frame travel, matched with buttery smooth 150mm Marzocchi Bomber Z2 forks and a Rockshox Delux Select R rear shock to keep you planted when the trails get rough. Shimano’s 1×12 wide range Deore drivetrain provides reliable shifting for all day epics while the Shimano MT420/410 brakes provide ample stopping power.

Rolling on WTB ST wheels and a Maxxis Assegai / Dissector tubeless ready tyre combo to provide the right balance of grip and speed, finished with Nukeproof components and a Brand-X Ascend dropper post you’ll have the confidence take your trail riding to the next level with our Escarpe 27 CR.
