We are proud to say that we have been working with the team at Atherton Bikes since 2019, helping to develop their painting process to deliver a high quality mountain bike to a global market.

Atherton Bikes use 3D printed titanium lugs and carbon tubes to create custom built high end mountain bikes. Take a look at their website for detailed build information.
Below is Gee Milner's Dream Build YouTube video showing the whole manufacturing and build process. We make our appearance at around 19 minutes 37 seconds!
The process sounds deceptively simple, however this is cutting edge technology that is both better for the planet in the long term, and enables people to ride to a new level on a bike that is created to their exact specifications.

So where does Lee Morgan Artworx come into this process?
Each Atherton Bike frame that comes to us at Lee Morgan Artworx is hand prepared and hand painted to a high standard, providing the carbon tubes with a protective layer that still shows off the raw look of the carbon whilst protecting it from long term UV damage.
The titanium lugs are painted in a complimentary matte black finish, and there are no stickers used on these frames. The Atherton logo is painted directly onto the carbon tubes to give a stand out, high end finish to these special bikes.
