    Vitus E-Sommet. Triple Crown Boxxer Fork?

    Has anyone fitted a Boxxer or other triple crown fork to an e-sommet? It is 30mm more travel but ive measured the axle to crown lengths and they are pretty much identical, thinner crown on the boxxer offsets the increased travel. Does anyone see any issues? Geometry and stack height will remain...

    Vitus ESommet Vrs finally here- problems

    Done a few rides now and it is brilliant, we have got a few different ebikes between us now and more of the group are looking at going ebike and all of them have said the Vitus feels the most chuckable after having a ride on each. One thing that is rubbish though is CRC at the moment, still not...

    Show us your Vitus!

    First ride out on my VRS. Felt great. Really happy with it. Just need CRC to find the keys or send replacements. One photo taken from each side of Ladybower.

    I cut some thin plastic like the stuff used for mud guards and glued on, and moto foamed underneath, i need to do the other parts still. Looks like it came on the bike.

    Vitus ESommet Vrs finally here- problems

    I can move it side to side slightly, so far its not cut out. Ive ordered a key online which hopefully works and gets here soon as CRC have not replied yet, and dont seem to be quick at anything.

    Vitus ESommet Vrs finally here- problems

    Been through all the box charger everything in there, no keys, think they must have forgot them after they wrote the code on the docs. Ill see what they say about small damage, not fussed really but if can get anything itl be a bonus. Glad you got yours, worst buying experience ever. If i...

    Vitus ESommet Vrs finally here- problems

    All built up and all seems to work fine, had a fresh Burgtec stem cap and spacers so sorted that issue. Just need the keys. It feels brilliant and looks great.

    Vitus ESommet Vrs finally here- problems

    Ive checked all over. They have wrote the key code on the docs so hopefully a replacement is easy enough, they may have just forgot to put in when packing. Least i can ride it still i suppose

    Vitus ESommet Vrs finally here- problems

    Hi All After nearly 5 weeks my bikes finally arrived, after being told yesterday it was lost. The box was battered but apart from a damaged stem cap, a mark on the stem, and few scuffs on the fork decals its not too bad, ive gone back to say ill accept if they can sort out some compensation...

    My spanking new Vitus E Sommet VRS 2020

    Ive been back and too with crc, tuffnells, and express freight. Ive had a little break through possibly. To be fair express freight are helpful, apparently thier directors gone mad at tuffnells and there may be some movement. It seems a full shipment it is one trailer at haydock and they just...

    My spanking new Vitus E Sommet VRS 2020

    Ive been back to the depot today and had a bit of a heated discussion, long story short still on a trailer after 11days and the whole place is a shit show. Ive asked crc for an update and told them this. If you ordered large they are out of stock so maybe the reason why. Its a joke. The...

    My spanking new Vitus E Sommet VRS 2020

    Thats because yours wouldnt have come via TWATnells. They are the weak link in all this.

    My spanking new Vitus E Sommet VRS 2020

    Still not here. Keep trying but nothing. Was going to go back today to the depot but had a skype work meeting. Just reading another review on them and they too have a parcel stuck at haydock, all crc stuff goes through that depot first i believe when handed over from express frieght. They are...

You cant...

    My spanking new Vitus E Sommet VRS 2020

    I used the live chat and eventually got an email back, ive since just emailed the customer service email and the girls replied. I asked for the express frieght reference number. That actually doesnt tell you much on the online tracking except in warehouse. If you ring them up with it though they...
