The titanium hardcore hardtail most will only dream of 

It’s thirty years since Orange BIkes was established, so to celebrate the occasion we really wanted to do something special and the T7 and T9 limited edition bikes are just that, something very special indeed.

In terms of dream hardcore hardtails, you would be hard pressed to better these frames. Exquisitely crafted from 3AL 2.5V Triple Butted Titanium tubing, if those silky looks and polished graphics on their own were not enough, we’ve designed the T7 and T9 to be perfectly balanced to their high-end component builds giving you an unsurpassed ride quality. The unparalleled strength to weight ratio means titanium provides an ultra lightweight frame and unbelievable confidence.

Roughly twice as strong as the nearest competitive material, the compliance titanium gives you makes those long hauls on rough terrain so comfortable, you’ll never want to stop.  

The details we’ve designed into the frame are spectacular too, precision CNC machined anodised aluminium bolt-on cable guides, finely worked dropouts, and of course the artistry of the polished frame graphics make these bikes stand head and shoulds above the crowd. 

In life, you get what you pay for, and these bikes are no exception. A limited run of only 15 models in each wheel size, each one bearing its own individually numbered ID plate, means you will need to move fast if you want to secure one. If you are lucky enough to end up owning one you will be a member of a very select group indeed.
