Whyte Bikes – Interbike 2018
Whyte bikes exists to free ourselves from the rest of the world and leave our worries far behind. We started 19 years ago with just one bike, but that one bike was loaded with more radical innovation than the entire ranges of most manufacturers. We created a massive impact, we reset some benchmarks, we learned some lessons. The biggest one was that if you have the best bike designers working with total freedom you can create something amazing. It started a string of perfect review scores that’s stronger than ever today with our T-130RS storming to an undisputed Trail bike of the year award and the T-130C, T-129 and 900 series bikes also earning perfect scores from the MTB media.
Take a peek at the exciting 2019 Whyte Bikes including the all new T-130 S-120 and G-170. All bikes are sold exclusively online via Northern Ca. at www.whyteusa.bike

Latest generation Whyte geometry, 150mm of travel and 29er wheels make this trail bike fast and controllable in every situation. A wide main pivot with oversize hardware is a perfect way to get the power down.
2019 905 $1899.00
The 905 defines the modern Trail Hardtail. A stripped back SCR frame and new RockShox Revelation forks (with Charger damper and short 37mm offset) combine with 2.8″ tires to make this 905 the best yet. The 905 brings ideas directly from our Whyte Enduro team, from the thicker V-Grips to the use of 170mm cranks, which bring the rider 5mm closer to the ground without compromising pedal clearance.
2019 901 $1399.99
With the 901 it’s all about the geometry – it will make you feel more confident in all situations than any hardtail you’ve ever ridden. The latest 901 comes fitted with exactly the same frame as the 10/10 award winning 905 frame.

2019 405 $999.99
We’ve broken the mold with our kids’ bikes. By putting 26″ wheels on a kids MTB we’ve given a boost in performance similar to an adult switching to a 650b/27.5″ Trail Hardtail. More confidence, more control and easier riding. With SRAM NX 1 by 11 spec and a trigger shifter the 405 really is a scaled down version of our award winning 900 series bikes. We have speced a XSYNC Direct Mount chainring so multiple chainrings are available to tune this bike to the size of the rider.
