Expirience with the Orange Alpine EVO LE

Ludwig Döhl Like all Orange bikes, the Alpine EVO LE is welded in England. The frame construction made of folded sheet metal instead of conventional tubes is revolutionary. You have no idea if you prefer high speed stability or playful handling? Then you can´t go wrong with the Enduro of Orange. It´s handling is pleasantly balanced. The seating position is sporty. The easy rolling tires, the 510 wide range of gears and the lock-out capacity of the suspension underline the sporty ambitions in the uphill. Check the size chart exactly before buying: the Orange Alpine EVO LE sizing runs big.
