BLACKLABEL Goes with Every Medal: Hattie’s Bronze at World Champs
Aug 31, 2026
Change language
Gold. Silver. Bronze. Hattie Harnden Completes an Extraordinary Season on Reynolds BLACKLABEL 309 DH
Gold. Silver. Bronze.
Different colors. Different races. Different conditions.
One constant underneath them all: REYNOLDS BLACKLABEL.
Just one week after taking her first Elite Downhill World Cup victory in Les Gets, AON Racing’s Hattie Harnden arrived at the UCI Mountain Bike World Championships in Val di Sole and added World Championship bronze to an already extraordinary season.
On one of downhill’s most unforgiving stages, Hattie once again proved that she belongs among the very best in the world.
And once again, Reynolds BLACKLABEL 309 DH wheels were underneath her all the way to the finish.
Then I would rename the medal section:
BLACKLABEL Looks Good with Gold, Silver and Bronze
There is something particularly fitting about Hattie’s season from a Reynolds perspective.
Her BLACKLABEL 309 DH wheels have now accompanied her to every color represented on the podium.
Gold. Silver. Bronze.
Different courses. Different conditions. Different steps of the podium. Yet the same performance underneath her.
Across an extraordinary season, Hattie has demonstrated that BLACKLABEL is about much more than a name. It represents the combination of speed, control, durability and repeatable performance required to compete at the very highest level.
The medal color changes.
BLACKLABEL performance does not.
Success, however you color it, comes atop Reynolds.
And the closing becomes stronger this way too:
Whatever the Medal, BLACKLABEL
Gold at Les Gets.
Silver during an extraordinary season.
Bronze at the World Championships.
BLACKLABEL underneath them all.
For Reynolds, Hattie’s season represents exactly what BLACKLABEL is supposed to mean: uncompromising performance combined with extraordinary integrity, delivered every time the start gate drops.
There are champions.
And there are wheels champions can rely upon to finish securely, finish surely and finish fast. Every time.
Unbeatable skill. Unbreakable rims. Unparalleled palmarès.
Hattie Harnden. AON Racing. Reynolds BLACKLABEL 309 DH.
Ride Better. Ride Reynolds.
