 This bike really a-peels to me, I think I could smash plenty of segments on it. Unlike some, I don't think they are taking the pith with their pricing, after all Oranges don't grow on trees. Oh, wait....

 I really love Joe's (& Crew) videos ... they get my psyched to ride every time. Even if it's sloppy out there, one dose of "8 wild terns" does the trick.

 I totally agree. The fun-having in these videos are unmatched. The hazard crew gets it.

 If Orange would have a water bottle mount inside the front triangle, I seriously consider one. I've liked single-pivot bikes for years and Orange has taken the design to apex.
