    I've got the vitus blitz 1 which is the same bike from 2012 (they changed the name from blitz to gravir and tweaked the spec a bit for 2013).

    It's a great short travel full suss with an excellent spec for the price, particularly with the Reba fork. It's pretty light so it climbs well, and the geometry is quite slack with a 68.5 head angle so it also descends very well. It feels like it has more travel than it does really. I've been delighted with it. Only issue I've had is the matte finish on the blitz hasn't been that hard wearing but it's not a big issue. The finish on the gravir may be different anyway and if not heli tape it.

    There's a good review here of the blitz 1 where it gets a 4.5/5 rating
