Hello. Has anyone bought one of these or can I have peoples thoughts? It seems like a great deal at £375 but I can find any reviews on the bike anywhere. What do you reckon?

    I'd say it looks quite good for the money. I'd have no problem riding that, but I'd but looking at upgrading wheels and tyres for something a bit more responsive when I had a bit more cash available.

    Looks fine for the cash. Vitus bikes look good value to me. Also look at Merlin Cycles own brand of bikes at that price point. Or of course Mekk if you can pay a little more.

    Thanks for the advice. I've also come across the B'Twin Triban 500SE for the same price

    Is there much in it between the Vitus and the B'Twin?

    What about the chainsets? Claris vs Sora

    Thanks but it's only available in 56cm. I'm size 54cm apparently.
