Photographs inside the factory at ORANGE

Here's (quite) a few photographs from a set I made for an American magazine at Orange Mountain Bikes back nearly a decade ago I think.

I tried to include as much of the retro stuff there as possible for us here, but it is one of the last made in the UK builders so I thought It'd be of interest to see behind the scenes of the old school metalworks factory in Halifax that I visited in 2011 or so.

Anyway, thanks for looking. Sorry they're not in particular order. And sorry there are so many! I got it down to 40!

I hate to deflect away from RB, but when you're done for this session on this site, if you fancy a read of the original feature...there's a link here:

Lovely part of the world to ride. I live in the pre pyrenees, but am in hospital on the spanish border (hence all the old factory visits re-appearing rather than new ones!)
