I just got the frameset in. I bought the same bars. I'm going to experiment with a 1x setup on it. I love it on my gravel bike which I occasionally ride on the road. So, I guess I'll see how I like it on a road bike.
Funny you should say that! I actually forgot that part didn’t I. I haven’t done it yet but I have UFO drip to go on this 👌🏼 I have it on my colnago and I just haven’t remembered to do it on this one yet
@LukeMichaelJames Tuned in after watching you with 2 amigos in Durham way. Loved the video and the bike. I ride extra small frames too being 5ft 7", just wondering what height you are and what saddle height you run there as you said the bike fit stated 160mm cranks! (im currently 700mm).
Glad to have you here Neil! I’m 167cm so just under 5ft 6. Running 160mm cranks has me set at 680mm approximately. That’s actually on my new bike though which has a longer top tube
Seriously considering pulling the trigger on this bike but I wondered should I go for the ZX1 with Force or Vitesse with Red Axs as they have no zx1 with red in stock and what is your thoughts as the standard zx1 is 8.4kg and I consider that heavy?
I have a Force tier ZX on the way. I’m incredibly excited!
My friend just got that version too! It’s so nice. The colour is stunning on it too!
beautiful bike !

3.27 showing the wheels your tube looks like it’s hanging out😮
Oh yeah 😂 hard though as it’s set up tubeless
Great video mate! The only thing i would do to improve the bike would be waxing the chain, for the rest... Beautiful machine!🔥

@@LukeMichaelJames ah okay, very good stuff that ufo drip!
I remember my vitus in the 80s. That bike was so awesome. Best aluminum bike ever. Except for my kline mtb. That bike was awesome too.
Vitus are awesome aren’t they! The value you get is insane. Bikes you remember all your life

Hi, I'm looking at this bike but confused with sizing, I'm 174cm with 80cm inseam, would you recommend small or medium?
Honestly I’m no expert on it but like I mentioned in the video, it’s much easier to make a smaller bike bigger than a bigger bike smaller
Do Vitus sell their bike direct or use bike shops?
Who knows at the moment with the current situation with wiggle. But they were sold through wiggle and chin reaction exclusively
What’s your height, since you went with an XS?
I’m 167cm tall with a 74cm inseam
I'm 170cm tall with 76 inseam, the vitus calculator suggest M for me lol. This bike has super high standover but short stack@@LukeMichaelJames
