I have for sale my Orange Five which is late 2015 or possibly early 2016 model. It's a high spec model and comes with: Fox 34 Factory with kashima coating; Fox float rear shock with kashima coatig; 2021 SRAM guide R brakes with 160mm rotors (I have larger rotors which I'll include in sale); Hope bottom bracket; Hope Pro2 hubs with Easton Arc 27" rims and maxxis wtres; Rockshox reverb dropper post; Sram GX 11speed rear mech; Race face crank with MRP chain device; Renthal fat bars and renthal stem. All in it weighs around 29lbs which isn't bad for an allmountain bike. Reason for selling is pure lack of use owing to buying a new bike. Based around Southampton but travel up to Berkshire daily and also Weymouth. Postage is possible. Any questions or for a viewing please feel free to contact me. Thanks for looking

I have for sale a true one off. This is the prototype Orange Blood that was ridden by Rowen Sorrell during the testing phase. I purchased this directly from the Orange factory. This differs from the production Orange in a number of ways, there's additional bracing between the top and down tubes, there are adjustable pivot mounts to change the geometry. The shock length is a little longer than the one that made it into production and the pivot arm is shorter and beefier than production. There's also the orange logo stamped into the top tube and Strange stickers highlighting it as a prototype. The bike comes with Fox 36's, hope DH4's and SLX/XT running gear and I've also upgraded the rear shock from the original coil to a fox RP23 (I'll include original shock in sale). It's a very jumpy bike and the geometry is very slack which make it way ahead of its day (which is probably why it wasn't a huge sales success!) The reason for selling is I've got three bikes (all Orange) and the Blood just doesn't get used anymore and I feel it's too good a bike to break and stick on a wall! This would make a cracking addition to any Orange fans collection. Photo of bike in garage is from August 2019, as is the photo of the orange symbol stamped into the top tube. The other pics are all as it was in 2010 when I bought it.
