Vitus E-Escarpe VRX: The right bike for any job

The E-Escarpe is an all-mountain eMTB designed for singletrack, after work laps, and for those looking for a pedal-assist alternative to a standard trail bike. Its balanced geometry is a blast uphill and down, and its Shimano EP801 drive system is intuitive and can be tuned to suit the way you ride.

It?s an eMTB for the rider who wants a nimble and responsive e-bike; a bike that?s a little less of an e-enduro brawler and instead a little more versatile and responsive.

Closely based on our award-winning Escarpe trail bike, the E-Escarpe is powered by the grunty and Shimano STEPS EP801 drive unit and a 630Wh battery. This motor system makes 85Nm of climb-eating torque and peaks at 600w of power ? a capable tool in an all-mountain setting.

Our goal was to make an eMTB that handled exactly like the rock-solid Escarpe trail bike, which is exactly where our designers landed. We began development on the E-Escarpe by starting with the original Escarpe frame and making small tweaks to make room for the EP801 drive system and adjusted the geometry for eMTB use. The result is an e-bike chassis that?s efficient on climbs and an absolute blast on descents; flickable enough to rail switchbacks and blitz rock gardens while still placing emphasis on uphill efficiency. It?s what we at Vitus envision as the ideal all-day, do-anything, ride-anywhere eMTB.

The E-Escarpe VRX is built around SRAM?s brand-new GX Eagle AXS T-Type 12-speed electronic drivetrain and a set of Hayes Dominion A4 4-piston hydraulic brakes. The suspension is a 150mm RockShox Ultimate fork paired with a RockShox Super Deluxe Ultimate shock with 140mm of travel in the rear. The rest of the kit is finished with Nukeproof components, with their bomber Horizon V2 wheels and a Horizon cockpit.

Built for variable terrain, after-work power laps, and undulating days in the saddle, the E-Escarpe is the perfect tool for any job.
