Vote Now! Most Desirable Mountain Bike – Singletrack World Awards 2024

by 7

Which bike do you most lust after? Which is the coolest mountain bike machine released in the past year? Simple, huh? Oh, if only it were…

These aren’t the bikes that you dreamt of when you were a teenager, these are the bikes you can go out and buy, now. There’s still plenty of innovative technology in all of these bikes, showing it’s more than just a pretty paint job that floats your boats. Although nice paint is always nice.

We’ve got three finalists for you in this category.

Atherton S.170

Yep, them again! Atherton Bikes had last year’s winning bike (essentially the carbon version of this metal machine). The S.170 may not be its latest offering (that’s the new Atherton S.150) but it’s still the model that most folk lust after. Read our Atherton S.170 first ride review.

Amflow PL Carbon

By far the most industry-disrupting release of 2024. The totally new everything-everywhere-all-at-once Amflow PL Carbon is the first e-bike to host the monstrously powerful DJI Avinox motor. In many ways it is really the motor that people are desiring but you can’t have a motor without a bike attached! Read our Amflow PL Carbon Pro first ride review.

Yeti ASR

Yeti’s lightest ever full suspension bike. Oof. The latest Yeti ASR is a modern cross-country race bike with 115mm of flexstay delivered at the rear and a 120mm fork up front. As ever from Yeti, it is not exactly a budget-minded choice. But that doesn’t matter here. This award is about heart, not head. Read more about the Yeti ASR.

Voting closes midnight on 16th December

Singletrack Weekly Word

Sports Newsletter of the Year finalist at the Publisher Newsletter Awards 2024. Find out why our newsletter is different and give it a go.

Orange Switch 6er. Stif Squatcher. Schwalbe Magic Mary Purple Addix front. Maxxis DHR II 3C MaxxTerra rear. Coil fan. Ebikes are not evil. I have been a writer for nigh on 20 years, a photographer for 25 years and a mountain biker for 30 years. I have written countless magazine and website features and route guides for the UK mountain bike press, most notably for the esteemed and highly regarded Singletrackworld. Although I am a Lancastrian, I freely admit that West Yorkshire is my favourite place to ride. Rarely a week goes by without me riding and exploring the South Pennines.

    Well, the first two are ugly or cheating, so the Yeti wins surely?

    Of those three. The Atherton bikes IRL are really amazing to look at, would definitely like to have a go on one, the AM flow thing looks super interesting as well, so yes, that as well, and who doesn’t love a lightweight Yeti?

    So, that’s narrowed it down a bit…

    If anyone has one of those metal Athertons, in my size (whatever that is… so much choice) and consider it too ugly for them to ride in public… please send my way… in the flesh they look NASA level smart to me… would love to try one.

    Where’s the Bossnut? It’s desirable to me whereas those three don’t tickle my fancy at all!
