The Whyte Karve RS is a full suspension electric mountain bike for trail and enduro riding. It uses proportional geometry with size-specific tuning for balanced handling across frame sizes. It is designed, developed and proven in the UK for year-round riding.
The front frame is uni-directional carbon fibre and the rear is alloy, with geometry adjustment. Suspension is Quad-Link 4 with 160mm of travel at the front and 160mm at the rear, with custom-tuned rear shocks.
An Avinox M2S motor provides up to 150Nm of torque and 1300W peak power, with five assistance modes: auto, eco, trail, turbo and boost. An 800Wh internal battery powers the bike. The Avinox DP100 OLED touchscreen on the top tube shows customizable ride information.
