My website has a fair amount of information about the Vitus 979. Check it out here: www.vitus979.com
It's probably form the mid- to late-80s. What's the serial number?

Hey John , thanks for the reply , some interesting info on the website
The serial no is E090475 if that helps
On closer inspection the frame does have some minor cosmetic damage but really needs a good clean and polish. I guess it will end up in the classifieds of this website or eBay , hopefully someone out there may be looking to restore to former glories.0 -
Can you tell me what the size is? There is a number stamped on the head tube.
This has what I believe is later seat post attachment.
Anyway, an interesting find!0
