Hi all, still not purchased an EBike but the offer at Chain Reactions on the Vitus E Sommet Vrs at £3750 is making me want to right now. How good is this bike?
I was going to purchase one as they appeared to be the best you can get new for that price range, I couldn’t find better. The VRX would be better (bit more pricey but worth it) but the VRS still looks pretty good. Only reason I didn’t buy was I was slightly put off by reports of Shimano motor rattle and I got a really good deal on a different used bike. Still plenty of riders on that shimano motor having a great time so can’t be all that bad.
I've got 2 e sommets 2018 and 2021 and they're both great bikes
Ep8 motor rattle isn't a problem as there's always something you're gonna hear on your bike if you're going for it.
Just watch any mtb vids on YouTube
Get the 630w battery and zeb forks, e8000 or ep8 motor
