Eurobike 2015
We've seen the prototypes being raced all season long by the Dirt Orange World Team boys, and now it's here: the production version of the new Orange 324.
As with all Orange full suspension bikes, the 324 is a single pivot design that drives the shock directly off the swingarm. It puts out 190-mm of travel in the rear, and is of course designed around 27.5" wheels. It uses a "classic" 83-mm BB shell and the old 150-mm rear axle standard.
In terms of geometry and sizing, the 324 is only made in M, L, and XL sizes. It features a 63-degree head angle and 445-mm chainstays, which puts it on par with most modern race bikes out there. The XL will give you 454-mm of reach and a 1269-mm wheelbase should you wish to play the "long bike short stem" game.
Build kits are available from GBP 4200.
