Hugs and Canti hanger rules. My kinda thread this. The Ti Orange is a mere bonus!

This must be a lovely bike to ride (and look at) ((and hug)). The steelies were great so I'd expect these to be like 3 times nicer, is that unreasonable?

Should be a winner, I like the story so far

Where did they make these, same factory as the steelies or one of the obvious Ti specialists?

this was made before my time in the trade so i honestly don't know where they were made, i have emailed a certain mr bonney at orange, he'll know for sure, but i imagine someone else on here probably knows anyway!

The forks look good on there...

Will be a fantastic machine Im sure, watching with interest, loving it so far!

i swapped the steerer as i'm using a m900 headset but yep i'm well pleased with how it's going so far

Wow!!!....
as I have said before....we didn't have "Orange" here in British Columbia Back in the Day.
Well...at least I have never seen one.
=========================

The Build so far is beautiful!!!!
I have a new found love for the Pace RC30 Forks in the last little while, and they look brilliant on this build!!!

....looking forward to seeing it finished...
.....thumbs up!!!

Kevin.

Welcome to the world of Ti ownership...it's a great material to make bikes from and that Orange is a good way to start.

Would look great with some RC35s/36s up front
