Every Atherton Bike is built with the utmost attention to detail at our small facility in Machynlleth. When we started our own company we vowed that we’d only ever make and sell bikes that we are excited to ride and it’s been an easy promise to keep. We are proud to put our name on every bike and frame that leaves the building.
After 20 years of racing on the international stage, 10 years of Red Bull Hardline and 5 years of Dyfi Bike Park we’ve formed some pretty strong opinions about what makes a great bike. We offer perfect-fit, high-quality bikes with a playful ride-feel because that’s how we like to ride. At Dyfi and Red Bull Hardline we quickly saw that bike technology just wasn’t keeping up with the demands of today’s tougher riding and so we set out to make all our bikes super-strong and durable - every Atherton comes with a lifetime guarantee.
WHICH ONE'S YOURS?
All of our bikes come with our promise of an awesome, confidence-inspiring but playful ride... and a lifetime guarantee.
A Range
If you’re looking for the pinnacle of engineering excellence, and don’t mind spending a little extra or putting in a couple more hours of maintenance so that can ride the very best, be at the absolute cutting edge of bike technology and have chance to customise your spec line by line, or your sizing to the nearest mm, then our additive manufactured carbon and titanium A Range is for you.
Material -Carbon tubes join additive-manufactured titanium lugs
Sizes - 22 sizes and a custom fit option
Builds - Suggested or line-by-line custom builds
DW6 - 6 bar linkage for an unrivalled level of adjustability
Additive Manufacture: Printed in Machynlleth on our Ren500Q machine
If you appreciate all the technology that went into that range, you want to take advantage of the learnings of the last 5 years and still have a fantastic quality, high-performing bike but you need something a little more affordable, that you can throw in the van and (dare we say it) ignore, a bike that’s still super stylish with awesome geometry and a great ride feel then our S Range is for you.
Material -Drawn aluminium tubes join CNC’ed aluminium lugs
Sizes - 12 Sizes available
Builds - 3 great value builds are available to buy through the website
DW4 - For the same great ride feel and easier maintenance
Subtractive Manufacture - Bonded and assembled in Machynlleth
This thing rips! I took a S.200 Build 3 for a month's hard riding in New Zealand, and it didn't miss a beat. The 7075 aluminium provides loads of pop when jumping and boosting lips, but then the DW4 link makes for a fast, plush ride with great small bump sensitivity. One thing I noticed was just how predictable the bike was, which made for a hugely confidence inspiring ride - really, really stoked on this one!
Horatio Foster
I will say that a person should build and ride one of these to really understand what a marvelous job you all have accomplished in the design and construction of this product. It has so greatly exceeded my expectations that superlatives escape me.
David Cook
It’s crystal clear that the Athertons have put together a unique package, with a distinct look and an equally distinct ride quality that sits head and shoulders above most generic designs. That alone should be worth the asking price.
Alan Muldoon
"It’s such incredible fun. I've owned and rented many bikes, but my Atherton Bike and the whole customer experience put everything else to shame."
Ben Stuht, S.170
I lost count of the number of times that I found myself much further ahead of my riding partners than I expected to be.
Ben Haworth
If I was spending my own money on a bike, this is the one I would choose. Despite my job, I’m more of a park rat. the S.200 excels there, but I still want to be up there and competitive when I put a number board on. The S.200 comes with so much Atherton race pedigree, and it’s a head-turner in all the best ways. I would 100% recommend.
Ben Lovell, Race Team Mechanic
One of the most fascinating bike brands is Atherton Bikes. The highly variable manufacturing process makes Atherton bikes possibly the most interesting bikes on the market.

"My Atherton Bike is as amazing as everyone says, but it still exceeded my expectations. The confidence that I feel while riding will unlock new levels in my ability"
Jenn Biestman, A.170
First impressions are very promising indeed. The Atherton S.150 retains the high tempo DNA of its more expensive counterparts, without removing any of the ability to charge hard on proper terrain.
The Atherton feels agile and playful, letting you shoot from one berm to the next at warp speed, the supportive suspension allowing you to pump the bike to go faster still.
Enduro MTB
TRAIL, ENDURO, BIKEPARK OR DH:
Trail - 130

Enduro - 150
Our 150's are inspired by Dan's experience on the Enduro circuit it’s equally at home on a big mountain mission with your mates. It tracks the ground as if it is glued to it, this progressive, supple and hard-hitting bike does it all, so you can push your limits every lap.
Big Mountain - 170
Both our 170 bikes are designed, built and tested to the extreme in the Dyfi Valley. Mullet, DW suspension platform with 170mm of rear travel and a straight-through seat tube create these awesome all-rounders - big hitters in the bike park and beasts out on the trails.

100 customers gathered at Dyfi Bike Park to ride with Dan, Gee and Rachel and Charlie Hatton. This was a massive leap from 2024’s event when 40 riders attended and it was fantastic to see the firm friendships that have formed within the group and to give a little something back for the great support that these guys bring.
