oooh i like, i got one of these too, like the hope stuff you got on it, i'm hoping to put some on mine too but can't decide on colour :S i'm thinking either gunsmoke or silver but how does the red look in real life, hard to see in the photo
they look ok eventually gonna put hope brakes on wi red rotors but to be honest in hindsight i would have gone for gunsmoke ! saving for some black rock shox recons at mo
yeah decent tyres mate very grippy been running some thinner panaracer trail blaster 1.95 found them better in snow and mud we had lately but will put maxxis back on when drys out abit
Hi mate,great starter bike, thanks for the 10 on the crush,better than going to halfords,orange produce great bikes with good spec for the price and there brits,iv,e just got a 06 crush in mint condition realy hardcore,put pics on soon ,cheers
cheers for rating pal ! agree needs makin less standard debatin whether to put sum panaracer xc's on with go faster red stripe top tyres and look cool as well ! hopin to do a fork upgrade but gotta kids crimbo pressies 1st or will get shot by her indoors
Thats the beauty of buying the bottom of the range model, it has the same frame and you have more money for upgrades!
Orange is a really cool make too!
cheers for rating bike pal! couldn't decide between trek 7300 or orange g3 but orange cool brand and less chance of seein somebody on same bike made me choose orange and so not disapointed
2009 standard orange g3 i know bottom of family tree but i love it
added extras
hope skewers,seat post clamp,bar ends,headset spacers and top cap all in hope red.
'peaty' grey and red grips
crud catcher
panaracer trailblaster tyres in red
new forks coming soon watch this space
