I actually still like how the original Orange 222 looked with it's low slung top tube, clean lines and slack (for the time) H/A and low BB. But y'know what? There's not a single Orange FS bike in their 30yr+ history I've genuinely liked the ride of. Geometry has been good on a few over the years but that single pivot and leverage curve are just always a bit shit to ride.I have one of those bikes that some think is pig ugly (Shimano BT-E8020 contained - Orange Surge). I bloody love how it looks and, more importantly for me, how it rides. There’s no mistaking it’s an eMTB!
Disclaimer: I haven't ridden a Surge (but can it really ride any better than the 20 other model Orange FS bikes I have ridden?)
