    Whyte T130 RS 650b Mountain Bike 2017 Granite/Lime/Magenta review by Professional review from Enduro-MTB, on 21/03/2017

    If it were said that the industry is producing some hot bikes right now, then UK cycle company Whyte is positively scorching. Their latest range of trail and enduro bikes are scooping up international awards hand over fist. the T-130 C will be lots of things to lots of people. For an intermediate rider, the long and highly capable geometry will inspire confidence on steep terrain, and the easy to exploit playfulness will see previously nervous riders taking to the air at every opportunity. Those who have been dragging round a longer travel beast will love the spirited climbing and will find themselves first to the top of the hill, before slaying the downs. More advanced riders will find the excellent shock tune and geometry make the T-130 C a furiously fast, agile and potent trail weapon, easy to exploit and able to stay with much longer travel bikes when the going gets rough. When it comes to finding fault with the T-130 C there is very little to complain about, the ride, performance and specification is all outstanding. For the testing, we switched out the rear tyre to a Maxxis Highroller II (over the fast rolling Maxxis Ardent) which instantly opened up the bikes potential in the winter grime. We did also notice that we were starting to see heel rubbing on the wide boost dropouts damaging the paint, unfortunately, this a problem that plagues a lot of Boost 148 mm bikes, and we would certainly recommend applying some frame protection here. But that’s it, a very short list after a month of riding!The Whyte T-130 C takes everything that makes the aluminum T-130 great but packages it in a lighter and more aggressive form. Out of the box, it’s a blisteringly fast trail bike with exceptional handling and poise, performing exceptionally well on terrain where a 130 mm travel bike should struggle. Is the T-130 C a brilliant trail bike? Yes, it is, and one that is so capable that it made us question why we would ever need more travel?

    Whyte T130 RS 650b Mountain Bike 2017 Granite/Lime/Magenta review by Professional Review From Bikeradar, on 16/12/2016

    Whyte introduced its T-130 range in 2014 but, weirdly, while it had radically stretched the slack geometry in its G-150 gravity bikes and 900 series trail hardtails, the 130s were shorter and steeper.

    Compared with other brands, they were still pretty rad for 130mm bikes, but they weren’t as progressive as their Whyte stablemates and we thought it had missed a trick. That meant we were delighted to see Whyte’s freakishly long and slack front end geometry nosing the SRAM front wheel out of Whyte’s van long before the rest of the T-130 when we hooked up with the British company on Yorkshires Ilkley Moor for an exclusive preview of its 2016 range.

    After wowing testers when our sister title Mountain Biking UK put it to the test, our other stablemate What Mountain Bike has now awarded the T-130 its Trail Bike of the Year for 2016.
