BIG-WHEELED WHYTE

-

In true British fashion, Whyte’s new carbon S-150 29er is built for muddy abuse, with oversize pivot hardware, a threaded bottom bracket and rubber seals at all possible water entry points on the frame. It’s got 150mm of travel at both ends (up front, this comes courtesy of a RockShox Pike fork with custom offset and travel) and geometry that’s on point for some hardcore trail riding action. This includes a slack 65.5-degree head angle and a long reach and wheelbase (459mm and 1,212mm, respective­ly, on the medium size). Final specs and pricing are due in July.
