Pre-Order

With Pre-Order, you can purchase the latest items added to our store in advance of them arriving with us.

Your Pre-Order is prioritised (at no additional charge); meaning that as soon as the product arrives with us, we can wrap it straight back up; ready for collection via Click & Collect or despatch to you — it often never even hits the stock room shelves!

Pre-Launch

With Pre-Launch, the date when we expect to receive the product ourselves is still a little too hazy to be confident in accepting Pre-Orders.

So, instead, you can submit your email address against the item you are interested in and we will email you as soon as stock arrives on the system.

Whyte T129 RS 29er Mountain Bike 2017 Zinc/Grey/Orange

Season:2017

Brand:Whyte

Code:W17T129RS2M-WHYTE17

The Whyte T-129 RS 29er Mountain Bike 2017 returns with an improved spec to create the ultimate trail bike ride, delivering the ultimate speed and flow to tackle tricky singletrack. Short chainstays give the Whyte T-129 the agility of a 27.5" bike, but with the inertia and terrain flattening advantages of a larger 29er wheel. The SCR frame design comes with a new rear chainstay, providing enough mud clearance for 2.35" tyres.

Shimano's all new XT M8000 cassette with its 11-46t range, this increase makes for a progressive 1x11 solution with the reliability Shimano products guarantee. RaceFace Turbine Clinch chainset comes complete with a narrow/wide 30t chainring. Fox's brand new Float 34 Performance fork uses the Grip damper from the highly credited 36 platforms and the rear suspension is controlled by Fox's brand new dual chamber Float DPS rear shock. RaceFace ARC-27 welded UST rims are laced to a Whyte front hub and a Hope Pro 4 rear hub, both with Boost sizing.

Whyte T-129 RS 2017 Features

  • Increased chainstay clearance for up to a 2.35" tyre

    Whyte T129 RS 29er Mountain Bike 2017 Zinc/Grey/Orange review by Professional Review From Bikeradar, on 16/12/2016

    5
    Whyte’s designers admit their inventory would be simpler without a 29er in the line-up, but they reckon the T-129 is the best bike they’ve built. We’d actually go further and say the new RS is one of the best bikes anyone has ever built, in price for performance terms.

    Frame and equipment: subtle tweaks and high-value kit list

    While it looks much the same as last years model, the new frame has a one-degree slacker head angle, 25mm longer top tube, 35mm longer front centre and is 8mm closer to the ground. All the T-129 bikes now get the much stiffer, single-ring specific main pivot and chainstay design of last year’s Works bike but in the latest extra-wide Boost 148 format.

    The internally clamped seat tube gets a neat rubber collar and the bearings are lifetime warrantied. Rear space is still limited though, with 2.2in rubber the muddy maximum.

    That means Whyte has sensibly specced a 2in WTB tread at the rear, relying on easy tubeless capability to add impact survivability. Hope provides the bombproof Boost 148 compatible rear hub, which carries the wide-range 11-speed cassette for Shimano’s brilliant new XT gearing.

    Brakes are also XT, while Race Face supplies the single-ring Turbine cranks and the well-shaped cockpit is Whyte’s own. A wipe-clean Whyte saddle tops the RockShox Reverb Stealth seatpost to complete an excellent value and usefully light complete bike package.
