Whyte Sythe RS Mountain Bike in Chili Red

Master any terrain

There's a point on every steep, fast descent where the bike either backs you up or lets you down, going vague and nervous just as you want to commit. The Whyte Sythe RS is built to hold its nerve past yours, so you keep pushing when most bikes would have you feathering the brakes.

The Sythe RS is a hard-charging enduro bike made for riders who never hold back. Progressive, proportionally-sized geometry and premium Quad-Link 4 suspension keep it stable and controlled through rough ground, big hits and high-speed lines, then stay precise when the trail tightens.

It's efficient enough to earn every descent and tough enough for year-round abuse, so it stays composed when things get wild and quietly asks you to go harder next run.

Highlights

• 170mm front and 160mm rear of Whyte custom-tuned travel (RockShox Lyrik Ultimate RC2 29in fork plus RockShox Super Deluxe Ultimate RC2 rear shock).
• 6061 hydroformed T6 multi-butted alloy frame with geometry adjustment.
• Proportional sizing for a proper fit and uncompromised handling on every frame size.
• SRAM Eagle S-100 1x12 transmission (30T chainring, 10-52T cassette).
• TRP EVO Expert four-piston hydraulic disc brakes (203mm rotors front and rear).

Who it suits

The Whyte Sythe RS is for gravity thrill-seekers, enduro racers, bike-park regulars and big-mountain riders chasing the best descending in a long-lasting alloy package. If you mostly ride mellow trails or want the lightest bike for long pedally days, this is more bike than you need.

But if you've been looking at a Whyte Sythe for sale because your riding has outgrown your current bike, this is the one that keeps up. For UK riders who ride hard through every season, the Chili Red Whyte Sythe is built to take it and come back for more.
