Notes; The Vitus Sentier VRX 2019 was absolutely one of the most talked-about hardtails of 2019… but calling it “Hardtail of the Year” depends on who you’re listening to. Here’s what actually happened: 🏆 Awards & Hype (2019) • It won Hardtail of the Year from MBR (Mountain Bike Rider) in 2019. • It got extremely high praise from BikeRadar. • It was repeatedly labeled “best value hardcore hardtail.” • It dominated forums for price-to-spec discussions. Why it got so much love: • Reynolds 6061 aluminum frame (well-designed geometry, modern but not extreme) • 140mm fork (usually a RockShox Revelation or similar at the time) • 1x11 drivetrain • Dropper post included (big deal at that price point in 2019) • Slack-ish head angle for the era (~66°) • Sold direct via Chain Reaction Cycles, which crushed the price-to-spec competition Basically: It rode like a bike that should’ve cost $2,000+, but sold for way less. That’s why people lost their minds over it. Was it the hardtail of the year? • In UK press circles? Yes, especially via MBR. • Globally? It was definitely in the top tier conversation with bikes like: • Nukeproof Scout • Whyte 905 • Specialized Fuse But the Sentier VRX arguably won the value war outright in 2019.
