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.

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 G-170C Works Gravity Enduro Suspension Mountain Bike

Season:2018

Brand:Whyte

Code:wg170cworks

This bike will not only be raced by our Gravity Enduro team - it was actually designed in conjunction with them. Their input to the geometry, combined with the new carbon front triangle and oversize hardware, adds up to a very stiff and capable chassis.

 

This bike is ready for anything you want to throw at it, from hard-core trail riding to EWS Enduro racing.  With its clever open front triangle design it is possible to fit various option of rear shock including coil shocks but still carry a full size water bottle.

 

The G-170 has extra width built into the rear chainstays to allow the rider to fully exploit the future developments in wide high volume tyres but maintain mud clearance.

 

Whyte Carbon 30mm Hookless, Tubeless Rims with Hope Pro 4 Boost hubs/ RockShox Lyrik RCT3 fork, Super Deluxe air shock / SRAM XO1 Eagle 12 speed drivetrain with SRAM Guide RSC brakes / Oversized RaceFace 35mm X 820mm carbon bars and RaceFace Turbine alloy 40mm long stem

Full Suspension bikes have changed so much over the last few years. Travel has got biger / longer. Lockouts are available on most bikes and even some bikes have on board computers controlling what the suspension does.

So what do you go for? Well If you believe the press then you need at least 150mm travel if you do anymore than drop off a curb. In reality that's complete rubbish. So here's our attempt to help make things a little clearer for you

XC Bike - Normaly 100 / 120mm travel bike will be sufficient for a XC bike. You will want to consider what lockout the front and rear shock has fitted so you can lock the suspension to improve climbing speed

Trail Bike - 130mm to 150mm travel bike suitable for most trail centers around the UK including Cannock Chase. Consider that all trail centers contain a reasonable amount of climbing so again you may want to consider the lockout system so you can get up the climbs without bobing around too much whilst you get full use of the travel when you come down the other-side.

Enduro Bike - 150mm to 170mm travel bike. If you like taking air where possible, hitting rock gardens flat out and take in the odd downhill track then these bike would be best for you. Make sure you consider that most of the bikes in this category are predominately design to go down so weight will increase as will the bikes ride quality on anything flat and up hill
