About Specialized Vita bikes
Vita is Specialized's aluminium framed, flat handlebar, speedy road commuter / fitness range. With slicker tyres the Vita range is most at home on Tarmac but will happily tackle some light off road terrain such as towpaths and smooth trails. The Vita Elite, Comp and Pro models feature 'Zertz' rubber inserts in the forks to help absorb vibrations and the Vita Pro also comes with 'Zertz' rubber inserts built into the rear of the frame for added vibration absorption. Mudguard and rear rack mounts help make the Vita range even more versatile and as well as being practical commuting bikes they would also easily cope with light touring use. In addition to the women's specific geometry the Vita range also boasts a number of women's specific components such as cranks, saddles and grips. Specialized's Sirrus collection is the men's equivalent to the Vita range. For a range of similar purpose and price bikes but with drop handlebars consider Specialized's aluminium framed Dolce collection.
Specialized says
The Vita Comp enjoys the speed of a road bike with the comfort and confidence that comes from a flat bar, for exercising, commuting, or hitting the open road. A super light E5 alloy frame and carbon fork, plus 2x10 drivetrain means smooth, fast, and efficient performance.
