Uncompromised Whyte OTO geometry combined with an ultra-low centre of gravity means outstanding handling, balance and control. A complete eSystem from Bosch means reliability and unbeatable backup. Our "slide in" battery fitment means maximum structural integrity for minimum weight and torsional rigidity.The high-torque 85Nm Bosch Performance Line CX motor is super-compact with exceptionally smooth power delivery which simulates normal pedalling, and range anxiety shouldnt be an issue as we fit a powerful 625Wh battery as standard.Each one of our eMTBs delivers more fun in your ride than any other bike we have ever made.

All bikes go through a Pre-Delivery Inspection to ensure that they are ready to ride, and all road bikes include a bike fitting to ensure that your new bike is set up perfectly for you. Please see the bike fitting page for further information.

If we do not have an item you have ordered in stock then we will contact you straight away to let you know. Most items can be restocked within a week, however if this is not possible we will let you know.

We are sure you will be delighted with your purchase, but if you are not, we accept returns and we will refund the price of the product providing it is returned in perfect resale condition within 14 days. If you would prefer an exchange for a different item (size, colour, etc) and we have the item in stock, we can arrange this once the original item is returned.

If upon inspection we agree it's a warranty issue we will repair or replace the item at our discretion and return it to you carriage free. If a warranty claim has not been cleared with us and you wish to have the item returned to you, there will be a postage charge for this. If you are returning an item to us, we cannot be responsible for the return postage. It is important to include a copy of the original proof of purchase, contact details and a description of the problem.
