Pre-Order

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

Whyte E-160 RS Mountain E.Bike - Silver with Matt Black

Season:2024

Brand:Whyte Bikes

Code:E160RSGLSSILWhitehBLK

Mid-range high performance

Wherever you ride – trail, e-enduro, or adventure – the E-160 RS has the capability to help you conquer everything. With its award-winning and confidence-inspiring Total Geometry handling, trail-proven parts, large 750Wh battery and high performance Bosch Performance Line CX 85Nm motor, on the E-160 RS you will truly be able to turn up the fun on every trail.

Confidence by design
This bike is designed with our holistic Whyte Total Geometry approach to deliver you the most extraordinary confidence-inspiring ride, every ride.
Tuned to perform
Mid-range doesn't mean mid-pack when it comes to the E-160 RS. It's dressed in a curated parts list that maximises the performance bang for your buck where it really counts: SRAM GX T-Type AXS 1x12 wireless electronic gearing, Maxxis tyres, feedback-rich SRAM Code R four-piston brakes, and more. Our own custom-tuned suspension from Fox has also been meticulously tuned and tested to deliver you outstanding, ground-hugging grip with the support you need to right out of the box.
Confidence on any terrain
Our Total Geometry approach gives the E-160 RS a generous reach, reassuring head angle and short offset fork, making it the most confidence-inspiring, nimble e-bike we’ve ever made. We’ve also given the E-160 S a rock-bottom centre of gravity by optimising the distribution of the battery and motor mass within the chassis. So you can expect exceptional cornering agility and a planted feel on even the choppiest terrain. You can also adjust the bike's geometry using its Shape.It Link ‘flip-chip’ geometry adjust (switchable from the stock 'High' setting to 'Low' to slacken the bike out by 0.6 degrees and lower the bottom bracket by 8mm) for even more gravity-focused handling.
Engineered for life
We’ve engineered the E-160 RS not just to perform today but for every day you want to ride it – for years to come. Everything from making the day-to-day tasks simple and easy – like hassle-free battery installation/removal, keeping room for a water bottle in the main frame, and in-the-bike-charging – to standing behind you for the long haul with the best rider support out there, four-year extended frame warranty and our lifetime warranty on bearings for total peace of mind. Because when a bike is this good you’ll want to ride it as much as possible.
Smartly connected
With the Bosch Smart System – which links up the E-160 RS’s bar-mounted LED Remote, battery and motor via the companion 'eBike Flow' app – you can have even more information at your fingertips to manage, tailor and personalise your bike just how you want: tune the motor support levels; keep track of your bike’s performance and battery consumption; plan and navigate routes; keep your software up to date. And much, much more.
