With Pre-Order, you can purchase the latest items added to our store in advance of them arriving with us.
Your Pre-Order is prioritised (at no additional charge); meaning that as soon as the product arrives with us, we can wrap it straight back up; ready for collection via Click & Collect or despatch to you — it often never even hits the stock room shelves!
With Pre-Launch, the date when we expect to receive the product ourselves is still a little too hazy to be confident in accepting Pre-Orders.
So, instead, you can submit your email address against the item you are interested in and we will email you as soon as stock arrives on the system.
Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates are given on Pre-Order and Pre-Launch products. They are for indication purposes only and can change at any time without notice.
The dates we provide are based on indications given by our suppliers. Whenever we get updated information from our suppliers we will endeavour to update the Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates provided on product pages.

Season:2021
Brand:Whyte Bikes
Code:W529V3
The Whyte 529 V3 is a great entry-level hardtail that delivers exceptional quality for a price that won’t break the bank. The 529 is fitted with a RockShox Recon B Spec fork which gives more mud clearance and allows up to a 2.8" tyre to be fitted, so you can push harder however damp the terrain and keep resistance from mud to a minimum. When mud collects around your suspension fork the seals come under a lot of additional pressure, so this feature also reduces wear when riding in UK conditions. The 529 is complete with a Trans-X Dropper post for easy saddle height changes through tricky technical sections and descents.Thanks to Whyte’s careful design, the 529 remain agile and lightweight even over the rough stuff. Plus, it features Whyte's proprietary OTO & SCR technology throughout the frame materials and design to bring increased balance and control, ideal when riding single-track.Plus, Whyte is a south-coast based UK bike brand, so has features specifically built for UK riding conditions, such as the "Get A Grip" seat post clamp system. This allows quick adjustment, fantastic weather proofing and a perfectly shaped ergonomic lever which is easy to operate however wet and cold your hands might be. With carefully chosen, branded parts and a high quality, latest generation frame the 529 has all the hallmarks of Whyte's award-winning DNA.
Rockshox Recon Silver SL Air Fork: Air spring for smooth buttery suspension & easy to adjust to suit the rider's needs11 Shimano Deore Gears: to tackle all terrains whilst reducing wear and mis-shiftsHydraulic Disc Brakes: Consistent braking performance, with 4 pots for far more power and modulation.
Mountain Bikes tend to use the T-Shirt sizing of S, M, L etc. or will have the seat tube measurement in INCHES. Why mountain bikes are inches and road bikes are CM who knows, but the part of the frame being measured is the same.
As a rule of thumb if you can identify your size as Medium on one brand, you should use that as a starting point on another brand too.
If you already own a medium mountain bike for example and are comfortable with the sizing, start there.
If you need any more advice on bike sizing for mountain bikes please contact us and we can help you make the right choice.
