Whyte T-160 RS Review
Ludwig Döhl
Aabove all, the Whyte T-160 RS just feels great. The flat 64,1 degree head tube angle of the Whyte T-160 RS oozes self-assurance, especially in challenging terrain. The seating position of the on extremely technical trails moves in a moderate range between sporty and comfortable. For friends of sending it on rowdy trails: the last argument is still the strongest, because the harmonious geometry and the grippy tires cause you to smile from top to bottom in the descent.

Geometry

Je steiler der Winkel des Sitzrohrs ist, desto effizienter können Sie in die Pedale treten.
