Avinox M2 – Power to Explore Further
Powering the Whyte Secta-E is the Avinox M2 electric drive system, providing smooth and natural-feeling assistance designed to make hills easier and longer rides more achievable.
The drive unit produces 250W nominal power, with up to 1000W of peak power and 120Nm of maximum torquewhen required.
There are five power mode settings available, including Auto and Boost, allowing the assistance to adapt to different riding situations.
Whether you're climbing towards the next trail, covering longer distances or simply looking to make everyday rides easier, the Avinox M2 gives the Secta-E the power to keep the adventure moving.
Up to 800Wh Integrated Battery
A high-capacity Avinox 800Wh battery provides the energy needed for bigger days and longer adventures.
Sizes Small through Extra Large feature the 800Wh battery, while the Extra Small model uses a 600Wh battery.
The battery is integrated within the aluminium frame for a clean appearance and is securely mounted using two bolts. It can also be removed for maintenance by removing the motor.
Combined with the efficiency and power of the Avinox M2 drive system, the large battery capacity means you can spend less time thinking about battery range and more time enjoying the ride.
Avinox Smart Technology
The Secta-E isn't just powerful – it's connected.
An Avinox DPC100 OLED display is neatly integrated into the top tube, providing useful information without cluttering the cockpit. It's paired with a discreet wireless handlebar controller, keeping important functions within easy reach while you're riding.
The system also connects to the Avinox Ride smartphone app, opening up additional information and functionality.
Through the app you can check battery and range information, plan and navigate routes, personalise your ride and access smart security features.
The result is a connected electric bike that gives you greater insight and control while encouraging you to explore further.
Confidence-Inspiring Aluminium Frame
The Secta-E uses a 6061-T6 aluminium frame constructed from multi-shaped tubing.
Its Single Chain Ring 1x-specific design is combined with a tapered Zero-Stack headtube, SRAM UDH specification derailleur hanger and modern 12x148mm Boost rear spacing.
Whyte has designed the Secta-E around confidence-inspiring handling, helping create a stable and controlled ride whether you're travelling along everyday roads or venturing onto rougher woodland trails.
The frame also features a fully reamed 30.9mm seat tube with 300mm depth, allowing the bike to accommodate its practical dropper seatpost.
130mm Suntour Suspension Fork
At the front, the Secta-E uses a Suntour XCR36X suspension fork with 130mm of travel.
The fork features:
- 130mm suspension travel
- 44mm offset
- Black coating
- Adjustable compression
- Adjustable rebound
- Tapered steerer
- 15x110mm Boost axle
The additional suspension helps smooth out rough ground and provides greater comfort and control when your ride leaves the road behind.
Combined with the bike's high-volume tyres and Whyte's handling characteristics, the 130mm fork helps make unfamiliar and uneven terrain feel more approachable.
Shimano CUES 10-Speed Drivetrain
The Whyte Secta-E uses a dependable Shimano CUES U6000 10-speed drivetrain.
A Shimano CUES U6000 rear derailleur and matching shifter are paired with a Shimano LG400 11-48T cassette, providing a broad gearing range for varied terrain.
The drivetrain specification includes:
- Shimano CUES U6000 10-speed rear derailleur
- Shimano CUES U6000 10-speed shifter
- Shimano LG400 11-48T cassette
- KMC eGlide 10-speed chain
- Whyte 155mm ISIS crank arms
- Direct-mount 36T narrow-wide chainring
The combination provides practical and dependable gearing for everything from steeper trails to relaxed everyday rides.
Powerful Four-Piston Hydraulic Brakes
Reliable stopping performance is provided by Tektro M5141 four-piston hydraulic disc brakes.
The front brake uses a large 203mm rotor, while the rear is paired with a 180mm rotor incorporating the Avinox tone wheel.
The four-piston brake design provides the stopping power needed to keep the Secta-E under control across varying terrain, adding confidence when descending or when conditions become more challenging.
Large Wheels and High-Volume Maxxis Tyres
Wheel sizing is tailored according to frame size.
The Secta-E uses 29-inch wheels on sizes Small through Extra Large, while the Extra Small model uses 27.5-inch wheels.
The wheels are paired with wide Maxxis Rekon 2.6-inch tyres, giving the bike a large contact patch and helping smooth out rough surfaces.
The wheelset features Whyte eMTB rims with a 30mm internal width, sleeved construction and tubeless-ready compatibility.
Hub specification includes a 15x110mm Boost front hub and an e-bike-specific 12x148mm Boost rear hub with double-sealed cartridge bearings.
Together, the large-volume tyres, wide rims and modern Boost spacing create a wheel package designed for stability and confidence across varied terrain.
Dropper Seatpost for Greater Control
A TranzX dropper seatpost comes fitted as standard, allowing riders to change saddle height at the touch of a control while riding.
Lowering the saddle gives you more freedom to move around the bike when descending or tackling more technical sections, while raising it again creates an efficient pedalling position.
Dropper travel is frame-size specific, with 150mm travel on size Small and 170mm on sizes Medium through Extra Large.
Whyte Trail Cockpit
The cockpit uses Whyte's own trail-focused components.
A 760mm-wide Whyte 6061 aluminium handlebar features 30mm rise and is paired with a short 40mm Whyte alloy stem.
Whyte Trail lock-on grips complete the setup, creating a straightforward cockpit designed to provide confident control.
Built for Everyday Rides and Weekend Adventures
The Secta-E isn't designed solely for dedicated mountain bike trails.
Whyte describes it as equally at home across everyday roads, quiet country lanes and forest trails, making it an extremely versatile electric bike.
Its combination of electric assistance, suspension, large tyres, dropper post and capable handling means you don't have to decide exactly where you're riding before leaving home.
It's designed for exploring, weekend adventures, everyday rides and taking the interesting way home.
