This bike is built in our workshop before dispatch, and we often have a queue. The current lead time can be seen by adding this bike to your basket. Some basic assembly is required on arrival, we are happy to help if you need.
- Upgraded, 'Race' version of Jitsie's Varial 1085 Bikes!
- Suggested rider height: 5ft 3in / 1.60m and up.
- New integrated rear through axle & snail cam tensioner system!
- New solid head tube removes need for gussets and increases frame strength!
- The new Varial Race 1085 from Jitsie features some major design improvments over previous versions to compete at the highest level in the World Cups and World Championships!
- Developed with their entire team of riders to ensure they perform at the highest level, having already been ridden to victory at competitions around the world.
- A new integrated through axle & snail cam system for securing the rear wheel and tensioning the chain comes straight from Jitsie's expertise in motorbike trials. A proven system that increases stiffness and allows the use of a 12mm through axle without the need for a fragile and weighty roller tensioner.
- Listening to feedback from their team riders and customers, the seat post hole is gone! A smooth top tube creates cleaner lines and a larger weld contact area at the seat say junction.
- A new solid tapered (1 1/8" to 1 1/4") steerer tube/head tube, for increased strength in this area removing the need for gussets as found on the older bikes for a cleaner look.
- New Forged ISIS Jistie cranks have a wider profile for increased stiffness.
- Stylish anodised silver frame looks fantastic with the new 'Ravetron' graphics, making the new Varial Race the best looking one yet!
- Upgraded parts kit compared to the standard Varial bikes raises the performance level of the bike.
- Please note: The spec is completely fixed at this price.

This bike is supplied with a 6 month warranty covering manufacturing and materials defects. The warranty does not cover mistreatment or poor maintenance. Please ensure all the details on the warranty sheet supplied with the bike are adhered to. Certain circumstances (such as stripped threads or rounded crank arm tapers) only occur due to a lack of correct maintenance and all manufacturers are aware of these situations, so any claims due to incorrect maintenance procedures are much less likely to be successful.
We build this bike to a 100% complete state in our workshop before dispatch to ensure all items are manufactured correctly and nothing is missing, but we do have to remove some parts to ensure there is no damage during transit. You will need some basic tools (usually 4mm, 5mm, 6mm and 8mm allen keys and a 15mm spanner) for final assembly upon arrival. We have a video guide here to help, but please don't hesitate to contact us if you require any further assistance.
