NEW FROM WHYTE | E-180 RSX

Brand new from Whyte

in stock at WHEELBASE!

The Whyte E-180 RSX is the chaos-crushing, downhill-dominating, climb-shrinking super electric mountain bike (e-MTB) for self-shuttled gravity riding, bike park play, and big mountain terrain. Engineered with an innovative low centre of gravity (CoG) design, it ‘plays and slays’ on the tightest, steepest tracks but still has your back when you’re flat out through boulder fields with handling that’s agile and alive for maximum fun, hour after hour, and run after run.

If having the best time dropping in on the biggest terrain is why you ride, the E-180 RSX is ready.

The Highlights

Optimised low centre of gravity gives you untouchable gravity handling.

180mm front + 170mm rear of trail-dominating suspension travel.

Multi-butted 6061 T-6 aluminium hydroformed frame is built to last.

Bosch Performance CX Gen 4 85Nm motor (600W peak power) for class-leading performance and reliability.

750Wh battery gives you the range to get more runs in between charges.

MX wheels (29er front, 27.5in rear) so you can tackle everything full-gas – no matter how rowdy or steep.

 

Dressed To Perform, Zero Compromises

To give you the best performance possible for when you’re pushing hard on the biggest terrain, the E-180 RSX is equipped with ‘sorted right from the box’ parts selection headlined by Fox’s impeccable Factory series suspension units front and rear; wireless electronic shifting across the 1×12 transmission from SRAM’s X01 Eagle AXS; reliable and controllable braking power on even the longest, roughest descents with SRAM Code RSC four-piston hydraulic disc brakes (220mm front rotor; 200mm rear); eBike-tough DT Swiss wheels; and top-drawer Maxxis’ dual-compound Assegai WT TR EXO+ tyres with Double Down Casing in the rear to shrug off the hardest knocks.

This bike is intended for all-mountain and enduro use over rough terrain, where loss of contact between the wheels and surface is common.

Engineered So You Can Commit

The E-180 RSX’s frameset maximises the advantage of Whytes unique tilted motor and super low-slung battery arrangement, which brings the bike’s centre of gravity as low as possible, to deliver you ultra-stable, dynamically centred and confident handling at any speed and on any terrain while short 155mm cranks deliver maximum pedal control and ground clearance.

 

Range & Reassurance – Get More From Every Ride

The extra-large 750Wh battery gives hour after hour, run after run on the biggest tracks and bike park lines, with a unique slide-out system for fast home charging removal and smaller battery options. Whyte’s innovative in-tube design is also far stronger and stiffer than open tube frames, surviving almost metric ton slam loads in testing so you can feel totally safe full-sending on the hill. Lifetime warranty bearings and full weather sealing back up Whyte’s and Bosch’s legendarily bombproof reliability. Because when a bike rides this great, downtime is a disaster.

Bosch Performance Line CX Gen 4 (Smart System) drive unit with 85Nm maximum torque, 250W nominal power. Features four power settings including Tour+, that allows riders to focus on riding whilst being economical on power usage, and eMTB mode which automatically adjusts the motor’s level of support to the terrain as you ride.

Smartly Connected

With the Bosch Smart System – which links up the E-180 RSX’s bar-mounted LED Remote, battery and motor via the companion ‘eBike Flow’ app – you can have even more information at your fingertips to manage, tailor and personalise your bike just how you want: tune the motor support levels; keep track of your bike’s performance and battery consumption; keep your software up to date. And much, much more.

 

 

Switchable Geometry

Whyte’s confidence-inspiring Total Geometry system coupled with the MX wheel set-up ensures the E-180 S ‘plays and slays’ on the tightest, steepest tracks but still has your back when you’re flat out through boulder fields with handling that’s agile and alive for maximum fun.

Whyte’s ‘flip-chip’ also allows you to change the geometry of the bike: switch it from the stock high to the low position to slacken the bike out by 0.6 degrees and lower the bottom bracket (BB) by 8mm for the most gravity-focused handling, or keep it in the high position for better all-mountain pedalling and handling. All without affecting the suspension kinematics.
