Tom Wilson parts ways with Orange Bikes after 7 years

After an amazing 7 years of riding for Orange Bikes I have decided to part ways with Orange Bikes, It has been an amazing ride, with every race since 2017 being done on an Orange. This worked out as 97 races, 40 world level. Over the years I completed 1 Downhill World Cup, 3 E-EWS races and 36 EWS/EDR races.


I would also love to say how amazing it has been to be involved within the brand over the years and how welcome everyone made me at the factory.

I have put together this video from my 7 years to show my appreciation to Orange and highlight all my memories from the great time that I had.



I want to say a huge thank you to everyone at the factory in Halifax and everyone else involved in the Orange Factory Racing team, I had the best time on all of the trips we went on.

I also want to say a huge thank you to all of my individual and the team sponsors from over the past 7 years I wouldn't have been able to do it without you along the way.

A special thank you goes out to:

Kelvin Lawton - Team Manager
Alex Desmond (Dez) - Bike Designer/ Legend
Dan Greenwood - Team Mechanic
Nick Mock - Head Chef
Kike Abelleira - Photographer

and also to all the riders on the team from 2021 - 2023 for making riding and practising the races more than just a day on the bike and into a quality and fun day of riding.

I have some really exciting plans for 2024 and I'm really looking forward to being able to share them soon.
