Orange Bikes Alpine 6 S Mountain Bike - Fizzy Orange
The Orange Bikes Alpine 6 S is a heavy-hitting, hard-charging enduro machine purpose-built to take on the most aggressive, white-knuckle tracks at full-gas. Designed and meticulously built in Britain, this legendary platform features an intensely prototyped, custom-formed monocoque 6061-T6 aluminum frame. Rolling on agile 27.5-inch wheels, the Alpine 6 is engineered for riders who prioritize high-speed stability, cornering tracking, and the bulletproof reliability of a finely tuned single-pivot suspension system.
At the heart of the Alpine 6 S is a radically revised, more progressive suspension layout built around a metric 230x65mm RockShox Super Deluxe Select rear shock. Delivering 165mm of plush rear wheel travel, the reworked frame leverage rate preserves a bottomless feel on massive G-outs while significantly smoothing out small-bump trail chatter. This progressive design strikes the perfect balance, filtering out harshness and keeping suspension wallow at bay to ensure maximum traction and control. Up front, a robust 170mm RockShox Yari RC fork eats up square-edged impacts, while a slack 64° head angle and a confidence-inspiring geometry package deliver unwavering stability when the terrain gets steep and technical.
The Alpine 6 S features a dependable, trail-ready specification anchored by a SRAM SX Eagle 12-speed drivetrain. Offering a wide 11-50T gear range, it gives you all the climbing options needed to crawl back up to the top of the steepest trail transfers. Power is put to the ground via a stiff SRAM DUB bottom bracket and an SX Eagle 32T crankset. When it is time to drop anchor, the highly responsive Shimano Deore M6100 hydraulic brakes deliver massive stopping power and excellent modulation, paired with a heavy-duty 203mm front and 180mm rear rotor configuration.
Built to handle heavy trail abuse day in and day out, the wheelset consists of tubeless-ready WTB ST Light i30 rims laced to performance-oriented Strange Pro hubs. These are wrapped in aggressive Maxxis Minion DHR II 2.4" tires featuring supportive EXO sidewall casing for premium pinch-flat resistance and predictable cornering traction. The finishing kit is completed with a solid 35mm RaceFace Chester cockpit, comfortable Strange Grappler lock-on grips, and a reliable 150mm SDG Tellis dropper post to get the WTB saddle completely out of the way on descents. The frame is finished in a striking, spec-exclusive Fizzy Orange paint job and is backed by a 5-year frame warranty with Limited Lifetime Crash Replacement.
