I'm after a new bike and have seen the 2015 orange crush am in my lbs for £1300, reviews seem good but does anyone own one? Are they good?
I ride trail centres and north York moors mainly. Would the crush be fine with this type of riding?
Are they any good up hill?
Basically I'm after a do it all hardtail that can go up aswell as down and handle the more tech sections on the trails to.
Would I be better with a 29er ht?? Or is 650b the dogs??
Anyone seen any deals on this bike be it 204 or 15?
Thanks in advance
Orange hardtails definately buck the trend of short chainstays.

Nnnnnnoooooooooooo!
They're mega !,I've had one just over a year ,& the type of riding you ride make it ideal.
I however Have converted mine to
1x10 clutch mech,hope tech 3's ,wide bars short stem,flows etc etc ,Orange now do an up specced Crush .
Forget what the Halifax haters say,ride one & make up ure own mind !.youre over 18 !. They are a great bike .
I'd also consider a second hand one ,there's a few on eBay ,also like you said ,check out Clockwork a 29'r they're for nowt !.
Also consider a Zero, better spec than the Cruch http://www.birdmtb.com/
