Legendary enduro bikes: Atherton AM.170 and Devinci Chainsaw

Stuff picks

The new Atherton AM.170 and the Devini Chainsaw have similar requirement profiles: The bikes function as enduro bikes, but can also poach in the downhill circus with a double crown fork at the latest. And if you want to help such bikes function even better, you should take a look at the new crank spider from Ochain.

Chainsaw naturally stands for Stevie Smith, whose death in a motorcycle accident in 2016 shook the scene. With the new Chainsaw bike, Canadian manufacturer Devinci pays homage to the legacy of the legendary downhiller and presents a very versatile bike.

Suspension guru Dave Weagle is responsible for the rear triangle, the carbon tubes are combined in sleeves, the bike can be set up as an enduro or downhill bike: with the AM.170, Atherton presents what is probably its most versatile bike to date. Anyone who likes tough enduro trails, jump lines in the park or downhill trails should take a closer look here.

Ochain follows up: No more chain kickback?

Ochain R

The suspension on the rear triangle and the chain drive can get in each other's way on a mountain bike. The Spider from Ochain can alleviate this problem, as the chainring can move in relation to the crank. With the new R version, there are additional adjustment options and therefore the potential to adapt to different terrain.
