First Ride: The Priority Vanth
We tested the Priority Vanth at Whistler bike park to see how it handles rough terrain.
Riding a prototype bike with a unique suspension linkage, gearbox, and Gates belt drive was a fascinating experience.
In September, I rode a prototype Priority Vanth and was impressed by its stability and ability to handle rough terrain.
- 165mm travel bike handled rough runs with ease
- Felt well-balanced front-to-back
- No issues with the belt drive system
The bike’s ability to handle rough terrain and its stability in the corners was impressive.
Note that the prototype tested was not built with production component spec.
