Vitus E-Mythique LT 297 VRX Mountain Bike

Vitus E-Mythique LT 297 VRX Mountain Bike - £4,399.99

The newest member of our award-winning eMTB range, the Vitus E-Mythique LT is a riot on the descent and a magic carpet on the climb.

Powered by our own custom tuned Bafang M510 motor system developed in partnership with Bafang, it blends the ethos of our award-winning Mythique trail bike with the downhill performance of the E-Sommet . The result is an eMTB that inspires confidence in big terrain, both up and down the mountain.

Packing 170mm of travel in the front and 160mm in the rear, it’s a long travel variation of the Mythique that incorporates learnings from our current E-Sommet range into an eMTB that is ready to ride anything. Whether it’s a steep and technical climb or after-work laps on the downhill track, the E-Mythique LT has been tested and developed to deliver.

The VRX version of the E-Mythique is built around a 170mm RockShox Yari RC fork and Super Deluxe Select R rear shock with 160mm of travel. The drivetrain is a mixed SRAM GX/NX Eagle 12-speed setup and braking is handled by the SRAM DB8 4-piston hydraulic disk brakes. Rounding out the build are tubeless WTB rims and a Nukeproof Neutron cockpit.

The new Bafang M510 motor system

To build an eMTB that performs exceptionally well, we partnered with a new drive unit manufacturer for Vitus, choosing Bafang and their M510 drive unit.

With a maximum torque of 95Nm and competitive system weight, the M510 is the perfect drive unit to power the E-Mythique LT. We developed a close partnership with Bafang and tuned the system to perform exactly to our needs, effectively cherry-picking the best features and incorporating them into our drive unit.

The M510 system is powered by an integrated 630Wh battery and a display with five custom power modes — Eco, Eco-plus, Trail, Boost, and Race — giving the rider maximum options for adjusting range and on-trail performance.

Combining this drive unit with our experience in suspension and geometry design, we have created an eMTB to be proud of. It's made to be ridden everywhere; from steep, rough trails to big days with big climbs .

The E-Mythique LT is designed to get the most out of eMTB’ing, whatever you might want that to be.

  • New Bafang M510 Motor

    Bafang’s M510 motor is impressively powerful with a maximum torque of 95Nm powered by a 630Wh integrated battery to give plenty of range. We developed a close partnership with Bafang and tuned the system to perform exactly to our needs. With five custom tuned power modes for adjusting range and on-trail performance and a competitive system weight the M510 is the perfect drive unit to power the E-Mythique LT.

  • Five Custom Tuned Power Modes

    Eco: Lowest level of assistance, great for preserving range on gradual climbs and riding with friends who aren’t on e-bikes.
    Eco+: Moderate assistance with low battery consumption, great on basic trails and fire roads.
    Trail: A versatile mode that’ll cover all your needs for most scenarios. A progressive power curve means assistance increases as you increase your effort.
    Boost: Maximum assistance with full power and torque for effective control on steep and technical climbs.
    Race: Maximum assistance with quicker application of power and torque at lower pedalling force, great for steep technical climbs with lots of obstacles.

  • Suspension Kinematics

    The E-Mythique features a progressive leverage ratio that results in a supportive ride feel in mid to deep travel events and means that the E-Mythique LT also works well with coil shocks. Balancing the anti-squat and anti-rise characteristics allows the bike to pedal well in climbing gears while keeping an active feel, helping to keep grip high in descending gears.
