hey, im selling an orange 222 frame.

i bought it a couple of months ago and after a few weeks of riding i discovered two tiny cracks about 6 mm long by the pivot pinch bolts, this was because of over tightening. As soon as i discovered them i had a very good welder completely remake the area around the pivot which cost a fortune, it looks really good and he done a great job of it, and above all it is alot stronger than when i bought it. It just looks asthough i took the paint of it where it had been welded so i could easily have sprayed it and not told anyone and you wouldnt have known any different but i new that i should be honest.

i have been riding it for a good two months now and its held up great.

before the weld it had play in the back end and now its solid.

it has had new bearings in the frame about two weeks ago.

the shock (Fox rc) has just been tuned and is super sensitive and nice with a 450 pound spring.

the sale includes headset (FSA pig), Seat post (truvativ), seat clamp(hope) and obviously frame and shock and rear axle.

its a size small and has the usuall cable rub and scratches from riding.

i love this frame (its looks and how it rides) so much that i am seriously considering a Orange 224 as it has impressed me so much and i am only selling it as i have just got an apprentiship so i will have nothing to spend my wages on except a new frame (as im pretty sad)

i am looking for around £240 ono for the frame and will prefer pick up but will nigotiate a meeting place to hand it over, or post if needs be (but dont really want to).

here are some pics of the frame and of it built up.
