Vitus Substance SRS-1 Adventure Steel Gravel Bike 2020

2020 Vitus Substance SRS-1 Adventure Bike

This road bike is specifically designed for gravel riding as it offers smooth and reliable performance across mixed terrain conditions.

It features a rock-solid CrMo frame construction which makes it more than capable of handling all the abuse from long distance journeys with unpredictable surface conditions. Vitus has also gone the extra mile by putting this sleek road bike through a heat-treatment process, which allows for another layer of durability on your travels. SRAM Apex Drivetrain with UD Carbon Forks Whether you're commuting to work or planning a bike-packing weekend away, this gravel bike is engineered for top-performance.

Propelling you up to speed in seconds, its SRAM Apex crankset allows for quick and easy acceleration while its hydraulic disc brakes keeps your ride under control. Ready for any riding situation, this durable adventure bike is also equipped with UD carbon forks which provide incredible stiffness without any excess weight. WTB SpeedTerra Wheelset with WTB Venture Tyres Rolling on a set of reliable WTB SpeedTerra wheels, this versatile road bike is perfectly set-up for gravel riding.

Using its WTB Venture tyre's larger outer diameter, this model delivers exceptional grip and smoothness when riding across uneven gravel surfaces. One final highlight is the Vitus Substance SRS-1 Adventure Road Bike's wheels and tyres are tubeless ready. This means you can simply install the supplied valves and add sealant if you want to run tubeless.
