just found this lurking in the ex-demo section of the Orange bikes website...

[img] [/img]

it says its a size 16 2007 Prototype frame with sliding dropouts. Can't help noticing the head tube weld, looks like ether the 224 or the Blood...

...do I need another Subzero? really? maybe an Alfine/rohloff? dare I say it, singlespeed?!?

/dashes off to check the balance of his ISA! 😆

and? what was it like? like a Subzero with a rohloff?

Interesting factoid: The Rohloff hub was invented by Skat Artist Rolf Harris and East German Liberator David Hasselhoff,

not a lot a people know that.

looks fun, rohloff would make a very good winterbike 🙂

looks a little less agricultural than the first generation frames
