Orange Alpine 6 RS 27.5" Mountain Bike 2020 - Enduro Full Suspension MTB
The Orange Alpine 6 uses 170mm travel upfront and with the introduction of the 230mm metric shock, we have revised the suspension layout to increase the rear travel to 165mm. Orange have also tuned the frame to be more progressive to retain a bottomless feel and improve small bump smoothness, treading that fine line that keeps wallow at bay and gives the Alpine 6 all the control it needs.
Key Features:
- Designed and built in Britain
- RockShox Lyrik RC2 170mm fork
- SRAM 1x12 X01/GX1 Eagle drivetrain gives hill taming ratios
- 27.5-inch wheels, 165mm rear travel, 170mm front
- Sizes: S, M, L, XL, XXL
- Colours: Jet Black (See Orange MTB Guide tab for more)
- The Orange Alpine 6 RS is available with 0% APR finance
The geometry has also been under the microscope and refined to match the new suspension performance, resulting in more agility, stability and confidence at speed. Their ethos is evolution not revolution, but the sum of all the changes offers huge gains in performance. The head angle is now half a degree slacker than its predecessor, the BB is 5mm lower and they’ve added 6mm to the reach (Size L). In addition, an extra 11mm has been added to the chainstay, which has helped centralise a rider’s weight on the bike during both descending and climbing, offering a more balanced feel.
The sizing has been reviewed dropping the XS but making the S we already had smaller covering both sizes. Orange also added in a XXL size and reduced the XL seat tube length to a 19 inch.
Orange worked on the smaller details as well, cable routing has seen an overhaul to be easier on the eye and keep those big loops to a minimum, we’ve also used frame grommets which mean whether you run your brakes “British” or “American/Euro” you can now do so without compromising your routing. All the CNC parts on the frame, upper and lower shock mounts, dropouts and bearing housings have all seen revisions.
So when you come upon one of those unholy beasts of a trail, this is the bike to take it on at full-gas and tame it.
