Vitus Substance VRS-1 Adventure Road BikeA genuine “go anywhere” adventure bike, the Substance VRS-1 brings you the familiarity of a drop-bar road bike, but with the capabilities of an off-road bike. With an aluminium frame and carbon forks at its heart, this multi-terrain ride will keep you in control on technical trails and over the roughest ground. This is thanks to the tough and responsive frameset, which is backed up by wide 650b (27.5”) WTB wheels and tyres and a SRAM Apex groupset.Adventure Bike with a Lightweight and Tough Aluminium FrameFeaturing a T6-6061 double-butted aluminium frame and carbon fork designed to take both 700c and 650b wheels & tyres, the possibilities are endless.

With the addition of mounts for mudguards, luggage and multiple bottles, it’s also capable of going anywhere for any amount of time. The Substance VRS-1 is fitted with SRAM’s Apex 1 hydraulic groupset, giving you a gear range that can cope with any terrain. X-Sync technology from the chainset and a Roller Bearing Clutch on the rear mech means your chain will always stay firmly planted, whatever the adventure.Wide, High-Grip WTB Gravel TyresThe Substance VRS-1 is fitted with WTB ST Light i23 TCS rims, laced to Alex Bear Pawl hubs and fitted with big volume WTB Venture TCS 47mm tyres. 650b is perfect for adventure cycling with the large outer diameter keeping your wheels rolling over bumps, whilst the added tyre volume allows you to adjust pressures depending on the terrain for grip, comfort and luggage weight.
