Vitus Nucleus 27 VRS Bike (Deore 1×10) 2020

The Nucleus VRS is a step above its sibling the Nucleus VR and features a 1×10-Speed drivetrain that’s complete with a 11-46T wide range cassette to get you up the steepest hills effortlessly. It features a quality construction, solid spec list and an increased stand over height with aggressive geometry for immense control on the fastest descents while ensuring you easily get back to the top for another run back down. Vitus’ number one, best-selling hardtail, the Nucleus has won MBR’s under £500 hardtail of the year for the last four years running and it’s easy to see why.

SR Suntour Suspension and Shimano 1×10 Drivetrain with 11-46T Cassette

With its low, long and slack geometry, the new Nucleus 27 VR’s ride versatility is increased via 120mm of Suntour fork travel, Tektro hydraulic disc brakes and large volume WTB tyres on wide rims for outstanding rolling performance and grip. Plus, it’s equipped with a reliable and precise shifting 10-speed drivetrain from Shimano, a Vitus finishing kit and dropper post routing for easy installation of a dropper post upgrade in the future. This is a hardtail that’s built to take your riding to the next level and does so without breaking the bank.
