2008 EV08
Always designed to be fast, furious and demonically direct, as the name suggests the Orange EV08 is an evolutionary progression of the functional hard-core XC aluminium mountain bike.A feature of good aluminium frame construction is that the rigidity of the material gives very direct power transfer from the drive train. On the downside, this can make long distance rides on an stiff aluminium hardtail a daunting prospect.
Taking the sting out of the tail on alloy XC frames has always been high on the Orange priority list. On long haul rides, high frequency trail buzz can be physicaly wearing on a rider, and that’s where the EV08’s radially curved seat-stays come into play. Their subtle shape soaks up trail vibrations, before they reach the rider, meaning that, more than ever, you’ll be hitting the hills on all-day epics with a renewed passion for putting the miles under your belt.
A work of art or a form of function? You decide. Either way, the EV08 pushes the fast-rider’s aluminium trail hardtail to a new level of performance.
