Cant add one yet...Could anyone help me out with this query?

Next build is likely to be a clockwork. Would probably be a re release version. I have seen the 1999 with original orange forks... did they ever sell the 2007 with matching rigid forks?

The E3 should be built be the end of the month so going to start to twitch again.

1999's defo could be bought with rigid forks. The 2007 re-release didn't as stock but you could buy forks from Orange (F8's?) at the time so if you got some of them and sent 'em to Bob Jackson's in Leeds you could get 'em colour matched as they painted all the 2007's.

Hello.

Long time no post!

Just came on to look for a picture of an all-orange Orange Clockwork like the one I had back-in-the-day.

Looks like this is the only one on here?
Image

So many happy memories on my one!

My current Clockwork looks a bit like this but now has Pace RC35s on it and a few other changes..

Image

I lent it to my bro-in-law so i'll have to do a full resto on it when/if I ever get it back!

Gotta love a good Clockwork. :D
