- 146 X
Typical Usage: Trail Riding
1 by 10 is the new trail bench mark. Featuring an 11-36 10-speed rear cassette and a single chain ring with a light weight chain device, this full suspension bike has all the trail taming attributes needed to slay a local DH trail or the steepest of trail centre runs - then pop up the block and spin you back up to the top. Whyte has worked with Fox to give the 146 X a fantastic Kashima coated rear RP23 rear shock which exploits the all-new XV2 sleeve to give this bike a "bottomless" feel.

- 146 Works
Typical Usage: Trail Riding
We use monocoque technology as it allows us to integrate key parts of the frame in one structure, rather than building separate parts and joining them together later. This has real performance benefits. It's the lightest way to produce this full suspension frame that is both stiff and strong. A full carbon tapered headtube gives us fantastic stiffness which delivers very accurate tracking and steering performance in both low and high speed use. 146mm of rear suspension travel. Complete bike weighs only 25.5lbs (medium size) without pedals.
