I need help please. I've purchased an old Orange Evo 02 Limited Edition frame and need to start building it. Does any have or know where I can find the original spec for it please. It's polished aluminium at present and have found someone to copy the decals and then i can get the frame re-polished. Help

From memory the Limited Edition was a 2000 model. Brochure can be found below, but it does not list the specs. Although the image may help you.

I had a 1999 Evo2 in slime green and from memory the following spec was standard. I'm guessing some of these would have carried over onto the 2000 model. It gives you a starting point anyway.

Manitou Spyder Forks
WTB rims (WTB Speed rims??? - possibly) with Ritchey Hubs
WTB Velociraptor Tyres
Ritchey Stem
Orange Supercross Bars
Orange Grips
Avid Digit brake levers and calipers (Can't remember the Digit Number)
Shimano LX shifters
Shimano XT rear mech
Shimano LX front mech
Shimano XT crank
Orange branded seat
Ritchey seatpost

My '99 model had an Orange (fluorescent snot) stem, and the rims were WTB speedmasters ( which are brilliant, it weighs the same as a 717, its wider and I'm still using one of them).
Andy at Biketreks swapped the forks and brakes on mine, for some Pace Evo IIIs and a Hope XC4. It's my wife's bike now, but its a bit of a triggers broom, as I even ended up with a new frame under warranty in about '02.
