HI, could you please have a look on this Orange. I am uncertain which modell it could be due to the details, like the small Wishbone and the fendermounts on the dropouts. Frame weight is around 1.7kg... I have no more pictures but the frame was offered to me and I would really like to know more before buying it :)

Thanks a lot!

 
Re:

Don't think that's an E4. They were Easton Elite and I doubt very much any of them had braise ons for racks as they were Orange's top of the range XC race frame.

I know the earlier E4 frames had round section chain stays, but later ones had very deep flattened chain stays. Another giveaway on E4 frames is the curved, snake- stay, seat stays.

I'd guess that its more likely an Evo frame.

This would be my guess too. Something 1998ish...
Thanks!
 
Re:

Its an O2! :D Check the drop outs, gusset and hole in the seat tube above bottom bracket shell. Only available for 1998 and replaced in 99 with the Evo 2.

Thanks for your help guys. I won't take the frame but if someone is interested please PM me for further details. Cheers
 
Re:

O2 could be right – you can just about see the decals under the yellow paint or where they once were applied. Hopefully it's not a Gringo.
