Vitus ZX-1 EVO CRX eTap AXS Road Bike (Red - 2022)

The Vitus ZX-1 EVO CRX eTap AXS Road Bike (Red) is a high-tier road race bike that is engineered with an ultra-strong and lightweight carbon frameset that is equipped with a SRAM Red eTap AXS wireless electronic groupset and hydraulic disc brakes.

The ZX-1 EVO CRX eTap AXS Red is durable, lightweight and efficient. It features a top-quality carbon frame, superb components and sits at the pinnacle of competitive road racing performance. The SRAM Red drivetrain shifts gears with exceptional efficiency and crispness while its powerful hydraulic disc brakes ensure outstanding all-weather braking reliability. This ZX-1 EVO rolls upon carbon Reynolds AR58/AR62 race wheels that feature deep-section Tubeless Ready rims wrapped in Tubeless Ready Michelin Power Road TLR tyres.

Lightweight, Strong and Stiff Road Race Bike

The latest Vitus ZX-1 has been remastered, reimagined and reengineered. Enter, the EVO. Lighter, stiffer and faster. Stripped right back to the drawing board for a ground-up overhaul.

Agile, Aerodynamic and Efficient Carbon Aero Frameset

Vitus has done the testing and knows that the ZX-1 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. 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.

SRAM Red eTap AXS Wireless Electronic 12-Speed Groupset

The ZX-1 EVO doesn’t neglect everything for the sake of speed, since an uncomfortable rider cannot be fast and efficient. At least, not for long. Thanks to the one-piece carbon monocoque frame there are no points of weakness, no joints, so it is specifically engineered to be stiff where required and deliver comfort elsewhere, reducing harshness from the road for a more soothing ride feel. Reassuringly, there are no compromises on performance with the build. You’re getting top drawer wireless SRAM eTap groupset, deep-section aero Reynolds carbon wheels and fully internal cable routing so nothing is left out in the wind. The result? A bike with a stunningly clean aesthetic that carves through the air with outstanding efficiency.

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 peloton, 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.

About the Vitus brand

First emerging as a frame builder in 1970s France, Vitus Bikes played a pivotal role in pioneering the design and manufacture of lugged and bonded aluminium frames, the most iconic being the 979, groundbreaking at the time and still prized among collectors today. In 1982 we engineered and developed the 979 Carbone, one of the very first frames to take carbon fibre technology from the aerospace industry and apply it to bikes. Their tradition of innovation continued throughout subsequent decades with frames which included the 1991 ZXI monocoque carbon frame, the spirit of which lives on in their latest generation of monocoque road bikes. Without exception, each of the bikes – from their singlespeed commuter to the high-end carbon road model – won plaudits for their ride quality, build and great value. The reviews confirmed what they knew all along, and they intend to improve on these already test-winning models as Vitus push forward with the development of this great brand of bikes. “Credit has to be due to a brand that has come back from the ashes and rather than milk the prestige of the old days, has set its sights on the biggest players on the scene.” CYCLIST magazine. Vitus bikes have been tested in many of the top cycling titles and websites across all disciplines. Their bikes have won group tests across Europe and are regarded as some of the best on the market.
