Thinking of a more discrete colour than my current bikes, in case the odd bit of cheeky riding is required 😉
I think the standard frame only option is 'chrome grey'(?) - From Orange's website it looks like a metallic mid-grey. I wondered what the frame looks like in a darker grey or black metallic - any 5 owners fancy showing me theirs? (ahem)
Fools Gold, ignore what it looks like on the website....

Forks were newly fitted and don't have a hacksaw - it was sorted the following day 😉
Strewth Richyb, nearly fell off me pirch! 8)
Thanks for the info & link to frame colour thread - what a range of colours! I'm liking some of the bright colours, but also really like the more 'neutral' metallics, like 'fools gold'. (GaryLake, Ta for posting the pic, the colour does look better than the Oranges's website).
No worries, here's one where there's less direct light on it

...original orange I think they called it....
Hopefully - battered my sternum on a lump of gritstone the previous weekend. It feels like it's getting better but will try a test run this coming weekend to see how it holds up, and then just avoid crashing for a while. Which is easier said than done...
Ok mate, let us know next week. Helvellyn on the friday so you'll need to be able to carry it!
