This is Orange’s brand new model and it follows the classic Orange Bikes philosophy of being simply built for reliable performance. And yet, thy claim everything has changed. On their path to the Orange Four, they say that every frame element has been optimised and refined to the point that the Four is the lightweight heart of a fast, responsive, short-travel trail bike that people have been clamouring for. Find out more in the official PR.

“We’ve performed more machining processes to shed weight from the CNCed parts, we’ve used lighter 1.4mm aluminium sheet in our fabricated frame tubes and ensured that the frame is diligently built so that our signature robust reliability remains intact.
We love this bike and we think you going to love it too. It fills the gap in our range behind the iconic and extremely capable Five, bringing a light, fast and agile trail bike that some say has been missing from our range.”
