Thought I'd share some pics of my recently acquired Orange Prestige. It's a 21 inch so hoping it fits me better than the 19 inch ones I've had in the past. My back still wishes the head tube was longer.

It's a work in progress. The Nitto bars are an experiment and I'm not sure I like the look.

Since I took ownership it's been stripped to bare frame and built back up. It's had new decals and I've replaced the bottom bracket, stem, bars, tyres, seatpost and saddle. I've also swapped the shifters from Deore DX to Suntour XC Pro as I prefer them.

The Maxxis Tyres may have been a mistake but there's not much choice in 26 tan wall these days...

I had a satin black Orange Prestige with Ritchey tubing as a teenager so this one is nostalgic for me.
