Whyte G-170 Review | 2020 WINNER Enduro Bike of The Year

Lively, fun and hellishly fast. Whyte's G-170C RS 29er is beautifully balanced and manages to offer seriously impressive value for money.

The Whyte G-170C RS 29 v2 is our Enduro Bike of the Year for 2020. When the dirt had finally settled after mile upon mile of natural trail and high-speed bike park tracks, it was the G-170C that edged it and had to take the top spot.

We were looking for a seriously capable bike that was built to hold it’s own when tackling near full-on downhill tracks, but still remained lively and fun when the going isn’t quite so steep. Even with between 150-170mm of travel, we needed it to handle the climb back up the hill without much fuss or any unnecessary effort. Yes, this is a big ask but that’s what’s expected of the best enduro bikes out there.

We back-to-back tested 10 of the most exciting enduro bikes that ranged from £3700-£4500 on a wide variety of trails, hammering them over rock and root until we had a winner. After testing had finished, it was the Whyte G-170C RS 29er v2 that consistently delivered a confident ride but always managed to keep things fun and lively.
