As a lot of members are also keen Mountain Bikers, I thought I'd share my ad. If the Mods feel that it's not appropriate, then please feel free to delete.
The only original parts remaining from Orange on this bike are the Brakes (although the calipers where upgraded with Red piston caps when I last stripped them in 2013), Shock and Fork Body (since upgraded with an RLC FIT damper, was originally the Float R suppplied by Orange). The year shown after each component is the year these where bought (new) and fitted. Frame: 2010 18" Orange 5 Forks: Fox Float RLC FIT 15QR 140mm - 2010, originally Float R as supplied by Orange, but upgraded with a RLC FIT damper Shock: Fox RP23 140mm (plus a spare RP23 that I have that I'll throw in) - 2010 (spare is 2008 probably could do with a Nitro recharge service) Crank: Shimano XT Triple (Double plus Bashring) - 2010, chainrings replaced in 2012. Will also include the original large chainring Bashring: Raceface Lightweight - 2010 Chain Guide: Blackspire Stinger - 2011, also includes a 2010 black one with some spare rollers. Bottom Bracket: Hope Ceramic - 2011 Front Mech: Shimano XT - 2013 Rear Mech: Shimano XT Shadow (Medium Cage) - 2011 Shifters: Shimano XT - Front shifter is brand new and unused, rear shifter is 2010 Shifter Cables: Jagwire Braided - 2013, front inner is brand new XT Cassette: SRAM PG990 - 2013 Chain: SRAM PC991 - 2013 Rims: Mavic XM719 - 2011 Hubs: Hope ProII EVO - 2011 Brakes: Hope Tech X2 - 2010 (Calipers fully rebuilt in 2013 and customised with red piston caps) Brake Discs: Hope Floating Saw (Front 183mm/Rear 160mm) - 2010 Brake Lines: Braided - 2010 Tyres: Schwalbe Nobby Nic 2.4 EVO Snakeskin (Summer Tyres) AND Bontrager Mud-X 2.0 (Winter Tyres) - Nobby Nics are 2012 and Mud-X are 2011 Bars: Easton Haven Carbon (711mm) - 2011 Grips: Raceface Strafe Lock-on - 2010 Stem: Raceface Turbine 60mm - 2011 Headset: Hope - 2011 Seat Post: Gravity Dropper Descender Multidrop - 2010 Seat Post Clamp: Hope Bolt - 2010 Seat: SDG Bel Air RL Ti-rails - 2012 Pedals: Shimano M647 DX SPD - 2012 I'll also include my winter Bontrager Mud-X 2.0 tyres and as mentioned above will also include a spare Fox RP23 Shock which is in working order, but needs a full service with Nitrogen recharge. Plus some other spares including part-worn brake pads, shock mounts (including a bearing), spare Stinger Chainguide. All of my bikes are meticulously maintained as you can see from the photos. Almost every ride, the bike is stripped and cleaned. I have a strict maintenance schedule with my bikes to ensure they are always showroom condition. The photos show my GPS clamp on the bars, this is not included. The paintwork is in great shape with a few cable rubs in the usual places and some tiny scratches on the carbon bars where the GPS and Go-Pro have been mounted. For the eagle-eyed out there, you may notice that the decal set is newer than the 2010 model. It was treated last year to a new decal set. The Forks and Shocks were recently serviced (by myself) and I've just given it a service with extra bits shown below; Rear Hub: Stripped, cleaned, regreased Rear Hub, bearings not required, but stripped down freehub and cleaned Front Hub: Replaced both bearings with new ones, they were ok, but one had started to get a bit "gritty" Gravity Dropper Seat Post: Stripped, cleaned, regreased Brakes: Both front and rear bled, nice and firm levers Front Shifter: The one on there was a bit tight, so replaced with a brand new XT with new inner cable. I'm looking for £1,300, bike is located near Uttoxeter in Staffordshire. Any viewing welcomed and for the serious, a test ride is available. I feel that this is a give-away price, therefore I can't accept any offers and it's pickup only from my home address, although I will travel a short distance to help with any distance buyers. This bike will now not be ridden until someone buys it. When picked up, I'll also set the suspension up for the new owner!

 It's on Pikebike and eBay and a load of other biking places.
Laughing at the hundreds of offers from people who are just wasting their time. GumTree, didn't think of that one! Craig Rogers

6'2 would be getting close to being over for the 18" as already mentioned.
However, saying that I'm around 5"9 and it wouldn't take too much to be too big for me. A friend of mine has a 20" Five and he's 6"2 and he says that it's possibly too big for him. So who knows? I run the seat post at almost it's minimum setting so has a lot of scope to be higher but it depends on the reach in the cockpit which might be too cramped. I guess the only way to know is to sit on one. You're local so happy for you to try it if it helps Craig Rogers 2007 Puma 110 XS 2011 Evoque Coupe Dynamic Lux www.craigrogers.photography |

Hey Craig - I'm in Trentham, Stoke, so just down the road.
Might pop over for a gander next week? I'm just trying to set my hard tail up. Got a new XT groupset for it which is now installed but its all over the place. Maybe its just a new 10 speed chain but there seems to be a lot of grinding going on - and not in a good way! |

Bike now sold, unfortunately not to Jim, but as expected after giving it to a 6'1 mate to sit on, I think it was going to be too small. Craig Rogers
