Orange Strange Proto Full 29er

The second Strange proto we saw was this full 29er, 165 R / 170 F bike. It is the full 29-inch version of the Switch 7, and sports the same linkage driven single-pivot suspension layout. The linkage allows Orange to provide more support and progressivity throughout the travel, which also makes it easier to run a coil shock if somebody wants to. the Orange EWS race team have raced with both air and coil, depending on the venue. This one also gets a UDH-compatible rear dropout.
