"If you are unfamiliar with the name "Atherton," it is time for you to be introduced. Siblings Gee, Rachel, and Dan have decades of racing experience between them. With that experience comes hundreds of elite-level wins, including World Cup and World Championship podiums. Those World Champion Atherton siblings drew on their decades of racing experience to found Atherton Bikes in 2019. Six years later, the brand offers seven bikes across its "A" and "S" ranges."
"First, let's distinguish between Atherton's A-Range and its S-Range. The A-Range is the brand's premium frame offering: carbon tubes bonded to titanium lugs. This range also sees a DW6 suspension platform and 22 different size options. On the other hand, Atherton's S-Range features aluminum tubes and lugs, adding some weight but saving some coin. The S-Range features slightly less tunability with the DW4 suspension platform and is only available in 12 sizes, rather than 22."
Atherton Bikes was founded in 2019 by siblings Gee, Rachel, and Dan Atherton, leveraging extensive World Cup and World Championship experience. The brand expanded from seven models across two ranges to introduce the A.150M, its first mixed-wheel offering within the premium A-Range. The A-Range uses carbon tubes bonded to titanium lugs, the DW6 suspension platform, and offers 22 sizes. The S-Range uses aluminum tubes and lugs, the DW4 platform, and offers 12 sizes at lower cost and weight trade-offs. Previously mixed-wheel options existed only in the S.150; the A.150M brings MX configuration, 6-bar dynamics, and carbon construction to the A-Range.
