Was getting close to pushing the button on a bird tr but this popped up on the radar 🙄

http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/vitus-bikes-sentier-vrx-hardtail-bike-xt-1x11-2017/rp-prod146562

To get a similarly specked bird it's £1840 is the bird worth the extra ?

Both frames look the same/geometry is close on both

I picked up a vitus zenium sl road frame while back in sales and it's beatifully finished so I've no issues with frame quality ..

What would you do ? Oh and please throw in other bikes to confuse me further 😆

Bird, if only for the impeccable service you'll get.

I so nearly bought a Vitus escarpe as I loved it when I demo'd it. I would go sentier and pocket the savings (join British Cycling and save another 10%)...but bird get a great name as well. Don't think you would be unhappy with either.
