Probably the most popular request to date is from customers who want to run Ohlins suspension. So we’re offering the A.170.2 with a choice of Ohlins TTX22.M2 Coil or Air and Ohlins RXF38 with either 170mm or 180mm up front.
Watching riders struggle with equipment failures at Dyfi Bike Park, at the races or out in the backcountry constantly reminds us that rugged and reliable components are key so every part on this enduro bike has been chosen with that in mind. This build won’t let you down!
Our mullet A.170 is designed to excel on steep terrain and is super-nimble, super-fun going downhill, and pedals back up almost as well as our Enduro A.150 bike! … You can boost jumps, and really push it hard in the park but when you’re up for an adventure the new geometry and the DW6 platform work together to make those big mountain-style missions altogether more rewarding.

"Whether you’re a beginner or seasoned trail veteran, the Atherton is a tremendous riding companion in all sorts of situations, from flowing trails to tough enduro stages and even gnarly downhill tracks. "
Mike Hunger, Enduro MTB
We offer 12 sizes for a perfect physical fit and two standard builds. Each Build 1 component was chosen because we believe that it blows everything else out of the water whilst Build 2 is based on parts chosen for their rugged reliability. But there’s no pressure to settle for our favourites, use our standard builds as a great springboard for your own custom enduro mountain bike.

We believe that our fit calculator will guide you to your perfect Atherton Bike. If you want more information, a full geometry chart can be found in our Tech Sheets.

The A170 is mixed/mullet wheels only. We believe that this bike performs best as a mullet so that’s what we offer. There is no provision for a 29 rear wheel. Have a look at the A150 if that’s your thing!
Sure you can! There may be some changes to standard geometry caused by the longer fork, drop us a line on sales@athertonbikes.com to discuss.
With its steep seat angle and a supportive DW6 platform for wildly efficient pedaling the A170 climbs far better than you might expect! Perfectly ready for big days in the mountains.
For most A170 riders we recommend a coil shock for the best performance, but air shocks work really well too, as with all of our A series builds we respect that you’ll have your own styles and preferences and will do all we can to advise according to your typical terrain and riding style.
With its straight seat tube it’s possible to run very long dropper posts on the A170. Even on the smallest frames long posts can be inserted fully.Of course the most suitable size for you might be smaller or larger depending on your measurements. We can spec anything from 125 to 240mm!
Again it’s down to your personal preferences, where you usually ride and the part of your ride that you prioritise. The differences are quite small – a 170mm fork gives a slightly better position for climbing, 180mm gives the best possible performance for the way back down! A 180 fork will also slightly reduce bike’s reach (around 5mm).
A.170M Build 1 features the very best components on the market.
