Whyte recently revealed its lightweight E-Lyte e-MTB range, which also seen the axe fall on most of its conventional bikes as the brand looks to take a more e-bike focus for 2024.
One of the new range is the Whyte E-Lyte 140 Works, and the renowned British brand has deliberately made its lightest, shortest travel e–MTB very different to most light and mid weight options. That means most trail/enduro riders might be better served with Whyte’s E–Lyte 150 semi-skimmed or E–160 full-fat bikes. However, if you’re into stand up sprinting on climbs, hunting hard on singletrack and making 100 km+ epic XC rides easier with some electric help, then this bike is brilliant. So how have Whyte made that happen and what do you need to watch out for when things get wild?
