For This Bike
Aug 2020 · Mick Kirkman
The Whyte G-170C Works 29 V2 is the latest in a line of UK-designed gravity enduro bikes that have evolved from 27.5in wheels.
Perfectly balances stability and responsiveness
Limited sizes and standover
Mar 2020 · Robin Weaver
Lively, fun and hellishly fast. The G-170C RS 29er is beautifully balanced and manages to offer seriously impressive value for money
Well balanced suspension
Super stable and confident without dulling the fun factor
Really solid, very well-considered build kit
High top tube limits standover clearance
Not the prettiest looking frame
Aug 2018 · Trev Worsey
With their new €6299 (£5250) G-170 Works 29er, Whyte have produced an outstanding bike, and at the same time fired a warning shot over the bows of the direct-sales superbrands.
