Vitus 992 Frames

[man630]

Anyone have any advice or experience with the Vitus 992 frames. I've seen a few bikes for sale (used) and I'm considering buying one. I've heard that they are a little weak or soft? Any info appreciated.

Thanks
Randy

I have been riding a Vitus 979 frame since
purchase in 1987. The frame is alittle "whippy"
if you push it. But over all, it is a great riding
frame. I have between 7,000 to 10,000 miles
on this frame. It is still fine, one of the best
riding frames I have ever been on. I own a
Litespeed, but still love to ride my "Old" Vitus.
