Put simply, a rider's bike!
The Alpine 6 is the stand-out big hitter in our Alpine bike line-up. It's legendary big travel all-mountain performance and Enduro race success speaks for it self. With its 27.5 inch wheels, it is sharp handling, fast turning and and utterly reliable in all conditions, this is the go to bike for the tough-guys and gals.
The Alpine 6 went through one of the most intensive prototyping programs we've ever done for performance and reliabilty and the result is spectacular.
With its 230mm metric shock, we revised the suspension layout to increase the rear travel and 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 in extreme terrain.
The geometry has also been under the microscope and refined to match the new suspension performance, resulting in more agility, stability and confident speed.
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.

The 2020 Orange Alpine 6 is brilliantly fun to ride and genuinely very rewarding. It’s far more capable in rough, technical terrain than the keyboard warriors might have you believe.
WideopenmagA good long travel enduro bike has to feel stable and confident from the get-go, and the Orange Alpine 6 does just that.
Enduro MTBThe Alpine 6 is another evolutionary step in the right direction for Orange. The bike retains the fantastically fun ride qualities we expect from Halifax’s finest and gets some new tricks to boot.
Bike RadarLesser bikes can wash out easily, but the Alpine holds its line admirably.
What Mountain BikeFast, balanced and above all else, stable on or over whatever I pointed it at, it felt like a steam roller.
