If you think hardtails are old skool you should check out the Whyte 19 range. These bikes are sweet-riding UK hardtails with a 21st century twist.

Hardtails never died, which is why 50% of our Whyte range is still made up of bikes with rigid rears. Dare we even suggest that more riders are turning back to hardtails to rediscover their local trails and reignite the buzz they used to get from riding?

The Whyte 19 is available in two flavours, race and trail. Our 19 Team and 19 Race both feature carbon seatstays for increased comfort and are designed around a 100mm travel fork. The all-aluminium 19 Trail is designed to handle a 130mm travel fork up front for some aggressive hardtail action.

Every Whyte 19 has adjustable geometry thanks to our bolt on dropouts and there is even the option of converting to a singlespeed should the mood take you.
