Just checked out the website and it's definitely got drool factor. The reviews weren't too bad either Couldn't find a bad one

nice! :shock: googled it and i prefer the colour scheme your getting

Yeah it's a great looker, so understated nothing really jumps out.
Kinda like a race car in full livery.



Can't wait for the ride review.

Decided to go for the Sid Blue as I'm usually quite subtle with my bikes...

Scott Peak, blue

Orange Gringo, Black metallic (with Gold Hope bling)

Orange 5, Chrome Grey (with Blue Hope bling)

Orange 5, silver (no Hope bling, unless you count red ano reservoir caps on the brakes!)

Haro F24, Grey primer colour

Falcon road bike, Beige (no Hope bling!)

Orange Clockwork, green with silver bling by, yup, Hope, also X-lite, Thomson...

....

Don't suppose you'd like to part with one of your Orange 5 frames would you?????
