Description

This 29 VRS model rolls from trail to trail aboard 29" wheels and features a Shimano Deore 1x10-Speed groupset with an 11-46T wide-range cassette and hydraulic disc brakes. Ideal for XC riding and trail center all-day epics, this hardtail provides a versatile and dependable performance anywhere.

Modern Geometry and a 1x10-Speed Groupset

Don’t be fooled by the price point, the Nucleus isn’t your run of the mill entry-level mountain bike. It’s the foundation of the Vitus mountain bike range, with aggressive geometry designed to get you hooked. Don’t say we didn’t warn you. For 2021 all models now come with 1x groupsets.

SR Suntour Suspension and a Shimano Deore 1-10 Drivetrain

The low, long, and slack geometry is coupled to 120mm of Suntour Air suspension taking care of any rough terrain you'll encounter on the trails while the disc brakes will give you ample stopping power. For 2021 the Nucleus has received a threaded bottom bracket for increased durability and a wide range groupset thanks to the Shimano 1x10 M5100 Deore groupset. A clutch activated rear mech, and a narrow-wide 1x chainring upfront will keep you on the trails all day.

Vitus and Nukeproof Finishing Kit Components

Vitus' tried and tested combination of WTB tires and rims offers superior performance and grip. Finished off with a combination of Vitus and Nukeproof components the Nucleus 29 VRS has stepped up to take your riding to the next level.

Please Note: Due to volatility in the bicycle supply chain we may slightly alter the specification of the component parts supplied with this bicycle.
