[Closed] Show me your orange fives

What kind of spec are you going to be running?

Swapping everything over from my blue pig, slx groupset, rs sektor forks and superstar switch wheels. Functional 😀

Here's a shot of my road bike leaning against my five:

Like the raw finish Munrobiker
Some more from last years Alps trip with that dreadful comfy saddle 🙂

Agree that Fives can look quite good with the right build - needs to be 16,17 or 18 inch and have a single chainring to look good.

The green chain device is black these days...

A few pics of mine ....

Here is mine. It's now got a dropper post and offset bushes! Absolutely love it, rekindled my love for all thins 2 wheeled!

There's some handsome bikes on here, I'm feeling the urge...

A mountain bike should be a reliable, solid friend that's built to last and just works with minimal maintanence. No fancy gimmicks to justify the marketing bulls+#. That's why I love orange bikes.

Who cares what a bike looks like or if it's got the latest fad technology. They're for RIDING, not poncing around trail centres.

Here's mine today.. Sunny but still cold out 😀

The ones with a straight top tube are the nicest.

Hi,
New to mountain bikes and to the forum.
I am just entering into the creaky knees phase of my life and decided to get a bike again my last being a bmx in the 80s, Here's mine,
[img] [/img]
I have wheels, tyres, tubes, fork, stem, bars and new headset already.
I hope to get a complete slx groupset and a seat post in the next few weeks before I start to build it.
Was going to send it off to orange for a refinish but I know if I did I would be too worried about scratching it to ride it as it should be.
