Show us your Whyte bits

[Mikehorti]

I love the Uber pads. Contrary to Jamze’s experience, I’ve found them to have great bite and be long lasting. They had some noise for the first ride but once properly bedded in, no issues at all

Long time since someone posted on this section so a little bump. Come on show us your Whyte bits.

Zeb Ultimate forks on the trusty E-160S. Truly outstanding kit.

 

[Jamze]

My trusty v1 e160 is still running well too.

Zeb Ultimate forks...

Big upgrade over the ones it comes with, then?

The compression adjustment alone is a significant upgrade and the cost to change wasn’t that high after I moved on the OEM. They are just (as you’d expect) higher quality.

 

[Jamze]

Especially with a few places selling them half price at the mo. Tempted.

The look of a Whyte boy very happy with his decision

On my way out on a test run after a few upgrades - Hope wheels, Hope Tech 4 V4 brakes, SRAM GX AXS, 36T Chainring and chain and Continental Krptotal tyres!

Nice. I’ve got some similar drivetrain upgrades going on my bike this week. I did add the matching orange Hope jockey wheels for my GX AXS.

If you are adding AXS, have you bought the upgrade switch, it does make a difference? I had the Uberbike orange ones on my standard GX but thought I'd wait until these wore out!

couple of pics of 'Mr President' on days 1 and 3 of the South Downs Way completed yesterday.
I've been his loyal subject for 6000kms, 2 and half years and 3 motors now.

Bike is new to me, not having had a a whyte before… loving it!!

 

[Stoffel]

Trying the suspension upgrades today on the E160s at Cwncarn forest, new Rockshox ultimate shock and Zeb 2.1 damper upgrade. Great day for it, it's the first time this year that the bike doesn't need to be washed!

Llandegla this morning.

Not sad at all, I’d love to be able to do that, up to now I’m hopping off road speed bumps

Just got this on Saturday. Had an amazing ride on Sunday. E160s, with TRP DH-R Evo, Bomber Coil and Charger 3 damper.

 

[militantmandy]

Done about 150km on this so far. All around Golfie/Innerleithen/Glentress. What a bike! Absolutely loving it, especially now I've got fork feeling much nicer.

I think I have my new e160S set up the way I want, so here are my 'bits' pics.

Since the purpose of this tread is to show the bits, I have listed them all below - I encourage others to do the same so we can identify them.

2023 e160S MX (mullet) in Medium

Oxford bike stand
Muhugger Bolt-on Evo long front mudguard (with Zeb adapter)
Ergotec 70mm rise bars with 12 deg backsweep. These only come in 31.8mm so I got shims to fit the original 35mm Whyte stem.
Ergon GA3 grips in Large
Muc Off stealth bar-end puncture kit with blue metal caps.
Bosch display mount kit to hold:
Bosch SmartphoneGrip wireless phone charger and holder for my IPhone. Note this also has a charging port so could charge your Gopro, bike lights etc too
Fidlock 450 water bottle system
Alston pedals
Moon rear light
SKS Mudrocker rear mudguard using quick release straps
BikeRegister stealth kit (with the microdots)
Apple airtag with speaker disabled
Invisiframe custom kit
I switched to immersion wax for the chain - so far so good.

I still might add a saddle wedge and/or a handlebar bag since I dislike wearing backpack.

Note the pics are after about 400 miles of riding & washing off lots of mud and sheep shit so the Invisiframe does seem to be helping.

I got a rockbros bag for the toptube
only £17
doesn't fit much more than an innertube, tyre levers etc but I guies a saddle bag wouldn't either unless your talking silly big ones
arg this forum doesn't seem to let amazon links work properly or my browsers addblock interferes with it

It fits. It doesn't clash with the charger (I hadn't even thought of this) and it only cost 55euro and 19 effing days of waiting

 

[fishcake]

Absolutely love this bike.
