Ride Fast. Spend Smart.
The T-160 S uses the exact same proven chassis as our top-tier RS model — meaning you get the same low-slung, long-reach, aggressively confident ride feel that’s earned industry awards and trail kudos alike. With 160mm front and 150mm rear travel, this bike is ready for bike park hits, natural tech, big mountain adventures, and everything in between.
What makes the S stand out? Value. You get high-quality, carefully selected components that punch above their price point — all without cutting corners on performance or reliability.
Built Tough. Ready to Rip.
The SCR alloy frame is lightweight yet bombproof, designed to handle repeated punishment with weather-sealed cable ports, internal routing, and a lifetime warranty on both frame and bearings. Want a more aggressive setup? The Shape.It Link lets you lower the BB and slacken the head angle by 0.7° for a more gravity-tuned stance.
And with the ability to switch to a mixed-wheel setup (29” front, 27.5” rear), you’ve got tuning options that let you grow your riding without changing bikes.
Confident Control. All Conditions.
The RockShox Lyrik and Deluxe Select+ suspension combo offers plush control with enough adjustability to dial in your ride. Shimano’s Deore 12-speed shifting keeps things simple and reliable, while TRP’s powerful Trail Evo 4-piston brakes with oversized 203mm rotors give you unbeatable stopping power on steep descents and loose surfaces.
Grippy Maxxis tyres, wide 30mm rims, a 170mm dropper post, and Whyte’s dialled cockpit mean this bike is trail-ready right out of the box. Just add trails.
