[Closed] Orange five XL too small for tall blokes?

Orang-Hutan · 2009-12-10T21:28:32Z

Yes, I am height obsessed, I admit it. I have a demo ride lined up on an Orange Five XL in a couple of days so I guess I will find out for myself but having spoken to a guy at Orange today who said there are plans for a XXL Orange Five in about 2011 it got me thinking that there must be a market for a bigger five or Orange wouldn't be putting the money into develpment. So, the question is, do 6'5"+ Orange Five owners really wish their pride and joy was just that bit bigger?

I'm 6ft 6 and am riding a XL 29er Salsa Mamasita with rigid front forks. It's a fantastic bike and I feel that i've finally found a bike that truly fits.

Great shout by Mr Tall for testing bikes before you buy. I'm based on the South Coast between Bournemouth and Southampton. If you wanna try a Mamasita let me know.

Anyone looking for a Turner 5 Spot XXL its on the classifieds. Brand new frame. 2008 in Raw.

Cheers
