Description
From taking their first laps round the trail or shredding in the bike park, Whyte's Sythe 27 Youth Mountain Bike has been designed for teens aged 14 and up. Built with an enduro geometry tailored to a younger rider's size in the cockpit, cranks and reach, the Sythe 27 is engineered with a lightweight 6061 alloy frame with weather-sealed cable ports, hose routing and seat clamp to keep out the rain, dirt and mud, so your young shredder can keep sending it time and time again.
Geared up with a RockShox Pyslo Gold suspension fork with 150mm travel and RockShox Deluxe Select RT 135mm rear suspension travel, the Sythe 27 is kitted out to soak up mistakes, shocks and technical terrain, whilst the 27.5-inch wheels and Schwalbe Albert Trail Radial tyres offer grippy confidence balanced with a nimble agility. Plus, if they'd feel more comfortable with the mullet set-up, the rear wheel is optimised to accept 26-inch, too. The Shimano CUES 1x10 mechanical transmission paired with Tektro 4-piston hydraulic disc brakes ensure an all-round smooth and reliable experience from shifting to braking no matter the conditions.
Helping riders improve and learn at their own pace, this tough, capable and lightweight full suspension bike has been built to conquer trails, inspiring young riders to become unstoppable.
Features:
- Built to help younger riders improve at their own pace from nervy first laps to bike park sessions or lessons
- Tough enough to take the mistakes in its stride

- Tektro 4-piston hydraulic brakes (180mm rotors both front and rear)
- Weather-sealed cable ports, hose routing and seat clamp keep the worst of the water and grit out
