Brand new although the spec is slightly changed. That’s less then the frame cost originally for a well spec’ed bike.

Flippin’ ‘eck that’s cheap.

Cor. Basically giving the frames away, that

Don’t think I’ve seen Orange discount like that before……. they must be properly shit!

😉

I’m 4 inches too long 🙁

Show off.

Wow…wish I had £1200 knocking about I’d snap one up!!

Wow. They really must be tripe!

EDIT: Seriously though, if i was after a new bike right now i would be 29er curious for the first time

There are good bikes. If that’s your size… go for it!

Not shit. At all.

Love mine and have forwarded that link to a couple of mates who have ridden and enjoyed mine. I’d be gutted at that price drop.

If I had any intention of selling mine.
And
If I hadn’t got mine for a price not too far from that 😀

Not shit, but clearly didn’t sell that well. I guess, if you want an XC 29er, you don’t naturally think of Orange. It will be interesting to see whether the Segment fares any better.

I’m rarely impressed by an offer

But that looks good

How over lapping is the Five ’14 and the Gyro? I’d quiet like a Gyro but don’t want a bike that does the same thing..

MUST…. RESIST……

I have absolutely no need for one, but even I just stared at the page for 10 mins considering it.

Thank goodness it’s too small

Not sell well? – they’ve got 2 left! And as much as i hate oranges that is a bargain

Dear God, I’ve just bought one and i didnt even know i wanted or needed one….i dont even hav anywhere to put it!

They’re not that similar according to those who have ridden both (Not me btw). The Gyro’s more XC I believe.

I think the Gyro suffered badly from the trend towards long and low everything, hence the Segment. Probably came along a year or two too late although it must have shifted a few as it was on sale for 3 years and spawned the Alpine 5 and Segment.

Christmas bonus, where are you?? They usually tell us before the December payment!
Jeez, new shower? new car? New Orange 29er..? Heeeeellllllppppp

If your current shower is rubbish, that’s what I’d do tbh 🙂

How much too small would one of these be at 5’11/6ft?

My current shower doesn’t exist!
Got a bath though, but not a Orange Gyro. 😀

Christmas bonus

A Christmas bonus? Is that when you have Christmas off?

All gone!

Thank goodness it’s too small

This.

All gone!

Phew!

A Christmas bonus? Is that when you have Christmas off?

Nope, it’s when the bigwigs give emselves an extra million for their year’s hard work and we get a few tins of baked beans and a Twix.

Amazing deal. I bought a Gyro frame only about six months ago. For £750, I thought that was a bargain! Brilliant bike. I’ve built it up more XC (Apart from the dropper :))and it’s a hoot. I ride mainly in the Lake District. I enjoy the ups more than most people, it always surprises me how well it climbs. I also find it really good in the air. And I’m rubbish at jumping, I wasn’t expecting that. I’m a single pivot convert.

Not sell well? – they’ve got 2 left!

And all they had to do was reduce the price by £1,700 – weird eh?

I don’t suppose they sold all of them at 1700 off did they.

Received mine today in Neon Green i gotta admit it is stunning 🙂
as soon as i saw the offer i couldn’t resist it BARGAIN 😆

When did you order mate?

Mine arrives tomorrow..! absolute bargain.. Hope it rides well!!

How much does the medium weigh?

I ordered mine on Sunday,it arrived on Wednesday 🙂

Just got mine looks great, feels like it will be fast too.. Not sure about the bars but everything else looks fine.. Don’t think you could buy a better bike for £1200… See how my strava times fair up… Nice one orange!!

FWIW, I found a dropper post really made a big difference to how much you could push the bike. Probably more than any other bike I’ve ridden.

My email says it was dispatched on thurs the 11th. Im now hoping that it will turn up when my gf is at work…..

So, anyone weighed these yet, ballpark figure?
