Does anyone have the bearing / headset sizes for the e-sommet 2021?
I saw this headset on CRC, but the fork is tapered 1.8"?

But the headset information seems to suggest its 1.5".

Thanks, I figured it out. The lower shock mounting hardware and bushing are 8x30 for the Vitus Esommet 2021.

I also have a vitus e-sommet. Higher speced VRS. I'd agree with the thoughts it hates flatter trails. It just doesn't work on them it needs steeper stuff.
It can somewhat struggle on tighter turns, particularly steep switchbacks. But when it comes to charging through straight techy stuff it just...

I am 5'9, I have a 2021 Vitus Esommet (M) and my friend has the 2019 Esommet (M). The size of the 2019 model makes it feel like a kids bike. I'm not sure what the numbers are but it feels so much smaller. That said I have ridden his a few times since I've had mine (maybe 3-4?).
My thoughts:
