    Anyone know much about this frame?

    How many were made etc. And any chance of more being made?

    If anyone has one they are willing to part with i would be happy to take it off your hands. Would probably be the perfect size for me considering my short legs.

    It’s the proto for the current 5. Just get one of them.

    The sizing is different on the strange, its the length of an 18″ with a 16″ seat tube

    I have one . I was told that there was only 15 made and only 5 of them went on sale. I had to pay way over the odds for mine from biketreks ambleside . I had always been an orange fan and I also have fairly short legs so just had to have it .I’m affraid I will never sell it and I would be very surprised if you did find one available.I’m not sure why orange did not produce this size frame in 2011 – it may be because it rides very much like the alpine . If orange stick with the single pivot and swingarm design then maybe a 2012 frame may appear . It bridges the gap well between the 16 and 18 ”

    Don’t have one, but have ridden one. Very, very impressed!

    As mentioned above it was ” the length of an 18″ with a 16″ seat tube” and was amazingly well balanced. Really low centre of gravity and massively flickable. At best with an uppy-downy post (Is there a proper term for them yet?)

    What you want is a ti-hardtail. Possibly go rigid and singlespeed too.

    It’ll make you for more wicked awesome than one of those Stranges!

    If there is only 15 made i should probably give up hope any hope of getting one. Are there any frames out there with similar sizing?
