The Whyte 629 was designed for use in on long tours in light terrain. And that's exactly where it shines. The flat 65 degree head tube angle of the Whyte gives the rider lots of confidence in challenging terrain. If you want to get ahead efficiently and quickly, you will welcome the sporty riding position. Heavy riders over 85 kilos aren´t likely to encounter too many problems with the high weight of 14,1 kg. For lighter riders, this could be a disturbance. A shout out to Whyte – we take our hats off, because a first-class price / performance ratio make the Downcountry-Bike von Whyte for on long tours in light terrain a benchmark in the price range under 2000 Euro. Check the size chart exactly before buying: the Whyte Hardtail sizing runs big.
