Fantastic! And no wait either! Enjoy

I’ve just switched to A052s and they’re a revelation. I understand why everyone has been banging on about them. I’ve not noticed a particular problem with pick up so far but I guess like any sticky tyre, when they get really hot they’ll pick up anything. Totally worth it though!

Stunning, on both counts! Good luck with the sale

I got nervous about mine and started looking into what the options to repair or refurbish them is.. got through to the people who now own SPA and they basically said 'no chance'. They offered to look in their old boxes of demo units to see if there was a spare anywhere but no joy. I think really the...

If it's an Atom 3/3.5, you've probably done this but it's worth checking if you're out of steering alignment that you've not bent the bit of the upright that attaches to the steering arm. I had a small 'off' in a gravel trap and it bent that bit of the upright, giving me wonk steering. New upright o...

Excellent choices - don't think you'll go far wrong with those. As Luckky above says though.. a tinted visor is highly recommended - They help concentration, are priceless in the summer (especially low sun mornings and evenings) and look absolutely badass, let's be honest. My personal preference is ...

Well, it all depends on what you think the function of a helmet is? If it's to keep your head warm, quiet and dry while keeping the wind and bugs off your face, then a cheap helmet will do the job every time. Even the cheap ones have to meet the main safety standards. For an Atom, it's definately ar...

Echo most of the above - helmets are very personal, due to fit and cost. Personally I’ve always fit Arai so I tend to just buy the best one I can afford. Worth noting that Bike Helmets tend to be a bit warmer, a bit quieter, bit more adjustable cooling and bit better in the pissing rain. But.. I’ve ...

I may be wrong but this has been for sale for a long time, maybe even a year. Also, for such low mileage it seems quite worn? The exhaust, the seat, the steering wheel look to have had a lot of use. Combine that with all the tape on the chassis, no lights and the absolute basic spec makes me think t...

Hey, sorry! I have emailed but no answer yet?

Add me to the list please!

Congrats! Welcome to the forum

Just my 2p but I think there's a big difference between the Atom being designed to get wet, versus being designed to thrive in a damp or endlessly-outdoor environment. The car is great in a shower, even a torrential one - all the water runs out of all the holes and all the things that need to stay d...

Hi! Is there? Do you have a link?

I have a bunch of saved searches on eBay but nothing showing up at the moment. A couple of buckled Dymags is all I can find.

If you have a link, I’d really appreciate it!

Just to add my 2p... my 'all weather' Atom tyres (including sub-freezing celsius) cold and torrential rain (including 1" standing water on track) are Yokohama AD08RS. I've seen people rubbishing them as summer tyres and particularly as track tyres and I'll agree that they don't offer anywhere n...
