Whyte Sythe 27
Cuts a clean line. Forgives a messy one.
"We built the Sythe 27 to shrug off the sort of trails that make grown adults reconsider their life choices halfway down. Sythe 27 takes all that same know-how as our adult Sythe bikes – the progressive British design, the weather-sealing that copes admirably with our weather, and handling that inspires more confidence than we personally have most mornings — and tailors it for younger, developing riders (14 years+)."
From nervy first laps to slightly-less-nervy bike park sessions, Sythe 27 is built to help riders improve at their own pace, without the bike ever being the excuse. It's tough enough to take the inevitable mistakes in its stride, and capable enough to reward the good days too.
