Cold Start. Aston Martin on two wheels with exclusive AMB 001

Anonim

Exclusive, to say the least. THE AMB 001 will only be produced in 100 units with a unit cost of 108 thousand euros (no taxes) — you read well… Furthermore, it is not possible to walk with her on the road, only in a circuit.

Will it be made of gold to be so expensive? No, but carbon fiber is abundant, as in the elements that make up the fairing and the deposit. It is this material that allows for the well-defined “fin” at the top of the tank, which extends towards the saddle and culminates in the taillight.

Titanium and aluminum are other ingredients used and the exhaust is made from Inconel, a super alloy with exceptional thermal and mechanical properties. Production methods also help justify the price, with many components “sculpted” from solid aluminum blocks.

Colors are typical of Aston Martin, Stirling Green and Lime Essence, with other elements in matte black (wheels, forks, brakes).
