2018 Whyte 901 has had a few upgrades. Both front and rear hubs are now sealed bearing. The bike now comes with the Rocjshox recon RL gold fork and the tyres have been beefed up to 2.6" for that extra bit of grip and comfort.

Pre-Order

With Pre-Order, you can purchase the latest items added to our store in advance of them arriving with us.

Your Pre-Order is prioritised (at no additional charge); meaning that as soon as the product arrives with us, we can wrap it straight back up; ready for collection via Click & Collect or despatch to you — it often never even hits the stock room shelves!

Pre-Launch

With Pre-Launch, the date when we expect to receive the product ourselves is still a little too hazy to be confident in accepting Pre-Orders.

So, instead, you can submit your email address against the item you are interested in and we will email you as soon as stock arrives on the system.

Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates are given on Pre-Order and Pre-Launch products. They are for indication purposes only and can change at any time without notice.

The dates we provide are based on indications given by our suppliers. Whenever we get updated information from our suppliers we will endeavour to update the Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates provided on product pages.

Cancelled / Refunded Orders Prior to Despatch

Occassionally our site will state that a particular item is in stock & avaible for despatch, when in fact it isnt.

2018 Whyte 901 Trail Hardtail Mountain Bike

Season:2018

Brand:Whyte

Code:w90118

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. With it's BBX frame there is the easy option to upgrade to a Whyte Drop.it seat post.

 

The award winning 901 features the "Get A Grip" seat post clamp system. This allows quick adjustment, fantastic weather proofing and a nice ergonomic lever which is easy to operate however cold your hands might be.

 

For 2018 the 901 rides on high air volume 2.6" Maxxis Forekaster tyres which combine with the WTB STP i29 rims to create more comfort, more control and more fun!

 

Lightweight and stiff 6061 aluminium frame / RockShox Recon Gold RL fork / Whyte custom 760mm bar and size specific stem / WTB TCS rims and 2.6" Maxxis Forekaster tyres

When choosing a hardtail mountian bike you first need to consider a few things. Firstly what is your budget and secondly what kind of terrain you want to ride on. 

Budget: We offer mountain bikes from £400 upwards. Yes you can buy Mountains Bikes for less but in most cases we don't believe they are fit for purpose especially for areas such as Cannock Chase. We would always recommend that at least you choose a bike with hydraulic brakes and a reasonable 100mm suspension fork. Below this price point we find most bikes have insufficient quality brakes and poor quality forks that wear very quickly developing play in the bushes on the fork within no time. 

Trail: In general there are 3 different frame designs that manufactures use. These are leisure / trail and XC. The frames differ in  design to suit these areas of the sport. Such as a leisure frame will offer a more upright position against an XC design which will be lower at the front end and offer a more aggressive ride.
