Designing Whyte's first lightweight eMTB

Elyte was a 12-month project to develop Whyte's first lightweight eMTB, timed to coincide with the launch of Bosch's new SX drive system in 2023. As Whyte's first step into the lightweight eMTB category and their first carbon fibre eBike, the project would set a design precedent for the platforms that followed. It was also my first project as an industrial designer at Whyte, having joined the company in early 2022.
