17 trail bike highlights from EUROBIKE 2016


Orange Strange 135

Although only a prototype, the Orange Strange 135 mm 29er makes a lot of sense in the Orange line up.

Everyone loves the 110 mm travel Orange Segment 29er, it’s a feral animal of a bike, with an aggressive and lively character that pushes you to go faster and harder over the trail. However, pretty soon the short travel runs out of muscle and you have to reign in the fun. Orange Bikes were displaying a new prototype 29″ bike, named the Orange Strange 135 that pumps the travel up to 135 mm with a 66.5-degree head angle, 74-degree seat angle and 1,199 mm wheelbase (size Large). The angles are not set in stone and Orange are still listening to feedback, but we are pretty certain we will see this bike in production soon. | orangebikes.co.uk
