We now have the 2016 model of Whyte’s award winning 905 trail hardtail in stock!

DIRT Magazine described the Whyte 905 as: “The best trail hardtail bar none.” and it’s an opinion very much ehcoed throughout the mountain bike media.

Whyte had their work cut out to improve a bike that has repeatedly scored full makes in magazine tests but a few minor geometry tweaks and the addition of a dropper-post as standard compliment what was already a finely tuned package.

You get a 6061 T6 aluminium frame with RockShox Revelation RL 130mm travel forks, Shimano Deore / SLX drivetrain, RaceFace Ride cranks, KS CRUXi dropper-post (with remote lever and internal cable routing), WTB Asym i23 tubeless-ready rims and Whyte’s ‘Intergrip’ integrated seat clamp system.

If you’re feeling the need for speed and looking for a bike with race winning pedigree, at only £2399 the Orbea Oiz M50 is stunning value – phone, email or call in and see us in the shop for more information.
