This is why I love Orange so much! You spent time developing the 225 prototype, decided that it wasn't achieving what you wanted, so went back to the drawing board. How many other bike companies would do that?

Seriously love the ride man! Orange all the way! Totally bomb proof! Sorry i'm only giving it a 9 but the chrome look-a-like raw finnish just doesn't do it for me! Need to give it some colour! Sorry man!
Rate mine please!

that's very very nice, although the head angle looks a bit steep? is that a large?

Orange225 replied... on 4 February 2011

Rides brill. Very different to a 224 though

t27eng replied... on 4 February 2011

yeah that's what i thought, orange's never have steep angles. how does it ride? i've never ridden a single pivot but i've always heard good things

Orange225 replied... on 4 February 2011

cheers. must be the angle of the picture. the frames a medium. ben cathro has the large frame
