    Put the filing cabinet pictures away… It’s not an Orange 5.
    We’re talking about a Rock Rider 5.0

    It’s all steel, possibly pig iron with 21 speeds of Shimano’s worst and some seriously lame ancillaries.
    I did consider the next model up, the 5.1, which has an aluminium frame and front suspension but it weighed even more and the fork was more like a pogo stick than suspension.
    So what lead me to this piece of 2 wheeled awesomeness?
    Simple, it was cheaper to buy than a weeks hire of a Dutch bike (complete with basket).
    So what’s the STW massive’s verdict on this POS?

    No garden? Clearly hiding an awful lawn.

    Disappointed it doesn’t have one of those huuuuge cassettes on!
