Good Evening

I have just purchased an Orange four frame and according to Orange optimum travel is 130mm has anyone tried a 140mm fork on an Orange Four and if so what did it ride like ?

Many thanks for any input/advice ?

Thanks

Not a direct answer, but I went 10mm above recommended travel on a stage 4 and it was awesome.

Really recommend a -2deg headset at the same time 👍

I ran my 120mm Orange Segment at 140 and 150mm without any problem so you'll be fine.

I have an Orangr Gyro....its what morphed into the Segment. I put a -2 headset in it and run it with 140mm Pikes. Its brilliant!
