Hi, I have. 2017 901 and I'm not the first owner but the bike is 6 months old. I have the purchase receipt
The rear hub bearings disintegrated and damaged the freehub, hollow axle tube and lock rings and though I tried all the approved suppliers (5 emails to Whyte via their web site all without a response) no one can offer the parts to repair this
So I have a 6 month old £1200 bike hanging in the garage
If anyone had any good advice on how to fix this I would certainly appreciate it, Cheers Tony

I had the same thing happen to my 2016 901. I just bit the bullet and bought a new rear wheel. I had good response from Whyte with other problems however, even replaced my frame in the first year of ownership.

Hi guys, I have the same issue. 2016 901 owned from new and the real wheel now has a slight clunky side-to-side wobble indicating that the hub bearings are on their way out. Already been looking for the parts for a while now with no luck. Starting to consider a new wheel as you did but haven't even found a suitable wheel for sale.
