Pinkbike article this morning stating that Pole has filed for bankruptcy??

Just seen details of the launch of a consultation by DfT concerning the current regulations that govern our bikes in the UK. Check out the website for more details and also the opportunity to respond. For whatever reason it seems focused on increasing permissible motor power to 500w and the use...

I note that the Specialized Mastermind can connect to AXS and as a result show on the display what gear is selected. I wonder whether that would be a welcome feature for the Bosch Smart System to have for others. I would certainly find it useful!!

I have a 2020 Whyte E180 RS with the gen2 Bosch CX Performance motor .......ie Purion controller. I also have a Whyte E160 RSX which is the same motor but with the Bosch Smart System. I love both bikes! The E180 is especially capable when the ride involves steep descents and/or really rough...

Maybe I am slow on the uptake and some of you already use braces but for me they are a revelation! I wear compression shorts plus Leatt armoured shorts....then trail pants or shorts...so a lot of waistbands in the same place!! My waist is perhaps not as well defined as it was and my armoured...

Some time ago I ran over some sticks hidden in long grass and one caught in the speed sensor cable and pulled the sensor from its holder. My bike is the Whyte E160 RSX. The orange light told me I had a problem and the Kiox told me it was a Speed Sensor fault. Sure enough I found the speed sensor...

Like a fool I spent time trawling though supposed Black Friday sales.............I should have known having worked in retail many years ago, that sales mostly consist of stock nobody wanted! Well there are a few clothing bargains......especially if you are very big or very small but browsing...

I use an enduro front mudguard on my e160RSX but decided to go for a bit more protection for the wetter months. I chose the RRP Proguard Max. Firstly I was impressed with quality finish/appearance and having fitted it, how it looks on the bike. It is also a very secure fit with very good fork...

I have lost a bolt that fixes the calliper post mount to seat stay on my Whyte E160RSX. I assume bolt diameter and thread for post mounts are the same regardless of the post mount.......only the length may be different? So can anyone tell me what size to get and suggest a source please. ( the...

Fantastic enduro bike. 3 years old.....1000 miles Mods: Hope 155mm cranks, Deity 50mm riser bars, Ergon saddle Faults/issues: none Maintenance costs: 1 tyre, 2 sets of pads, shock and fork service, 1 chain.

As per title...announced yesterday....should raise the profile of Whyte a little.

On my last ride on my Whyte E160RSX I suddenly lost motor assist, the Led Remote light turned orange and Kiox 300 said "speed sensor fault". I stopped to check the sensor and magnet. The sensor was just dangling from the chainstay. I had just turned off a single track into a field and think I...

Not so nimble in the tight and twisty stuff as my E160RSX but that just makes it a bit more of a challenge. ......absolute bliss on the rough and rooty bits though

As standard the PRS22.2 platform bike stand has a fork/thru axle mount on the front end and a spiked fitment at the back end that fits either side of an anlague bike bottom bracket. The latter is obviously no good for an EMTB so I replaced with a homemade "cradle" that the motor sits on. I made...

I have the same DTSwiss 350 Hybrid system on both my E180 and E160 RSX . Always impressed how clean it stays and easy it is to service. ......quicker than cleaning and lubeing a chain! First service on the RSX freehub after 500 plus miles over the last 10 months with the giveaway that freewheel...

Hi, I am thinking a bout paying the Forest of Dean a visit. Probably just a day visit to kick off but based on what I find I may go back and camp for a few days. I have checked out some information online and it looks like a ood plan for the day trip would be to head for PEDALABIKEAWAY and park...

I have the Fox 38 Factory on my E180 RS and Fox 38 Performance Elite on my E160RSX. The Factory fork is the EBike tuned version, the Performance Elite is the standard tune. OK the Factory fork is 180mm travel whilst the Performance Elite 160mm but my settings are very different on each so I...

The standard bikestand needs some modification unless you are happy clamping to the dropper. I have seen a few mods using drop handlebars but they are usually narrow ones for kids bikes and I have never seen any for sale. In any case on both my E180RS and E160RSX the shock gets in the way. So I...

I noticed some free play when lifting the back end of my E160 RSX and on closer inspection found that to be due the bolt that secures the back of the shock to the shape it yolk being very loose. It is probably possible to tighten it in situ but not enough room to use a torque wrench. I decided...
