I would be surprised if your frame isn't ISCG-05

A quick google confirms that your frame is ISCG-05.

are you fitting a chain guide?

ETA. it looks like that chainset is 2x10, however from the article linked above: "Whyte has also committed the new T-130 to 1×11 drivetrains only, employing its SCR (Single Chain Ring) design. There is zero provision for a front derailleur on this frame".

Am I right in assuming you intend to convert it to a 2 x 10 drivetrain? If so you will probably struggle due to the above.

Ah, thanks guys. This sort of stuff is a minefield when you aren't 100% certain.

So many slight variations.

No, I've got 1-11 I think but looking to replace the whole drivetrain as I've worn it into the ground

Not looking to add anything as I like them clean and simple.

tell me about it! even when I worked as a bicycle mechanic and it was my job to know these things, it was a constant struggle to keep up.

I didn't look in detail at the crankset you are interested in, but from my skim read it looks like it's 2 x 10 setup which your frame is not designed for. You could fit a replacement 1 x 10 system if you are keen to save money, fit a 1 x 11 to replace like for like, or upgrade to a 1 x 12

is your current drive train shimano or SRAM 1 x 11?
