The Moulton AM, short for Alex Moulton, was the space-frame bicycle with which Alex Moulton revived his design after buying back the rights from Raleigh in the early 1980s. It was launched in 1983 after the original Bradford-on-Avon bicycle factory was re-equipped and the design had been through exhaustive testing. The space frame gave high rigidity and low weight compared with traditional steel frames, and the AM7 won respect from touring cyclists. The AM line later grew with the Jubilee model of 1987, the off-road AM-ATB and the racing AM-SPEED, and it was the base for the faired bicycle that set a world speed record in 1986.
