SPEEDWORK
THE PERFECT ALL ROUNDER
A brand new frame for this year sees updated geometry, internal cable routing and some neat extra features for rack and mudguard users. We've also added an extra set of bottle bosses under the downtube if frame bags are your thing.

MEET THE FAMILY
Built around our legendary 6061 tubing, the Speedwork offers all the comfort and control you'd ever need, with a rigid carbon fork, 700c wheels and fast-rolling 37c tyres for flat-out speed on man-made terrain. Big gear ratios and reliable componentry means minimal servicing even when you’re clocking up commuter miles.
A bike this good isn’t just a weekday workhorse though. For weekend bike-packing trips, that gravel race you really want to do, the daily grind or just relishing the thrill of riding fast, the Speedwork totally nails it. Of all the Oranges in your quiver, this could be the one you ride most.

Do what we do well.
The one thing that never changes is that everything will always
change. Once you accept that, the rest is easy.
We’re not middle men, we’re not box shifters, we’re doing what we do to make mountain biking fun for anyone that wants to come aboard. Hand crafted, reliable, high-performance bicycles.
Increasingly we live in a global community, and for others nearly everything is sourced from anonymous factories from all over the world - the reason? Economics. Buy cheap, sell high. We design all our frames here in the UK. Nothing gets picked from a salesman’s catalogue.
ON top of that our high-end model’s frames are built from aircraft grade 6061 aluminium right here at our fabrication plant in Halifax (Elland), West Yorkshire. We know it’s not cheap, it’s not meant to be easier - but we think it’s the best. It’s no secret that we also have frame building partners in Taiwan, and we work only with the best people with relationships going from fathers to sons - they are part of the extended Orange family.
