Vitus Titanium prototype/pre-production

mojo ti · Mar 5, 2016

Hi friends,

Just for your eyes, my very rare Vitus titanium.
I do a lot of research on it, impossible to find informations.
I met a person of reserch and development , who told me he was never marketed .
They remained in the prototype / pre-production.

Just an article on VTT Magazine :

First mount, search matching parts :

And link to informations research about Vitus titanium :

Very nice. Jan Janssen sold Vitus frames under the Jan Janssen name in the Netherlands. On one expo, around 1994, they showed a Jan Janssen Titanium. Perhaps it is the same frame.

Love this. I have a Vitus catalogue, 1997 I think, that lists titanium mtb's

I've checked and it is listed as a frame only, (no fork), in the 97 catalogue. PM me your e mail if you would like a pdf copy
