Fork material

Wheels
The wheels on 529 v3 are the 29″ aluminum type. With 29″ wheels, bumps will feel lighter and you’ll gain more speed on descends, compared to smaller wheel-sized bikes. However, if you’re not a tall person, you might find it difficult to adapt to this wheel size.
Brakes
When you want to stop the bike in time, the brakes are vital. The 529 v3 has Hydraulic Disc brakes. With Hydraulic Disc brakes, you’ll be able to stop on a dime, even in wet or icy conditions. To sum up, your safety is in good hands.
Sizes
There are 4 sizes available for this model. Rider height can be anywhere between 158 cm – 199 cm (5.18 ft – 6.53 ft). In short, it won’t be difficult to find the right one for you.
Dropper post
The Whyte model is also equipped with a dropper post. If you are a technical rider, a dropper post is essential. A dropper post provides increased safety while riding. The lever system, allows you to move your saddle up and down, which is very useful on climbs and descends.
