The Details
As trails progress so do the demands on the suspension. A RockShox ZE fork and RockShox Deluxe Select R rear shock get you through the rough stuff and SRAM Guide RE brakes give you maximum stopping power.
Whyte's OTO geometry was designed for maximum steering control, offering some of the best handling in the eBike world. The 29in (27.5in sizes XS & S) wheels provide a fun and lively trail feel bringing an agile ride character ebike. The low-slung position of the battery offers a confidence-inspiring ride like no other. There is “slide in” battery fitment to give maximum structural integrity with minimum weight and torsional rigidity.
Incorporating the latest eBike technology, the Bosch CX Smart System, the Bosch Performance Line CX motor packs 250W of power and 85Nm of high-torque, and is perfect for higher pedalling frequencies. With customisable Power settings controlled from the bar-mounted Bosche LED Remote display, you've got the means to go anywhere.

How do I measure my height?
With your shoes off, stand upright against a wall, with your shoulders back and legs together. Use a pencil to make a small mark on the wall above your head – make sure you hold the pencil parallel to the floor. Then measure from the floor to your mark, in centimetres or feet and inches.
How do I measure my inside leg length?
With your shoes off, stand upright with your back against a wall. Place a book/ruler between your legs, level with your crotch. Then measure from the floor to the top of the book/ruler, in centimetres or feet and inches (it’s easier if a friend helps).
