10 Limited Edition World Championship Bikes
September 6th, 2023
Atherton Bikes have unveiled an AM.200 DH bike in a limited edition of just 10 units to mark Charlie Hatton’s 2023 World Championship victory at Fort William.
The AM.200 Gold is hand-crafted in Machynlleth and is a full-team replica of the bike that bore Charlie to victory with team-mate Andreas Kolb just 0.5 seconds behind him in second.
The World Champs spec AM.200 represents the gold standard in ride quality and handling with Charlie saying that he rode the horrendous conditions on the day “as if it were dry”.
The availability of 12 standard sizes ensures that every rider can experience this level of confidence for themselves.
Atherton Bikes CEO Dan Brown said “To be the first British bike brand to take that Elite World Champs win, and to achieve that win on a production bike so soon in our company’s history is the absolute dream. We wanted to take a moment to celebrate all the hard work that has gone into this moment – from riders, engineers, team partners and our tight knit team of employees here in Machynlleth.
The bike is available now and is strictly limited to 10 units. Price: £9,650/€9425/$10,200 prices exclude shipping, dollar and euro prices exclude tax.
