2017 Orange Alpine 6 Factory 27.5″ Mountain Bike

Big mountain performance and reliability. The Orange Alpine 6 is a supremely capable enduro mountain bike for taking on challenging descents and big days on the hill.

Redesigned and renamed for 2017 the Alpine6 is now built around a 170mm travel fork. The 6061-T6 monocoque frame retains the long wheel base and long top tube/short stem design which, combined with a slacker head angle, offers even more capable MTB performance when the going gets tough. The pivot point has been moved closer to the chain line in order to offer more efficient suspension performance and improved ramp up. The effective chainstay length has also been shortened to improve handling. Boost hub spacing front and rear adds stiffness while also improving tyre clearance.

With the ultra-stiff Fox 36 offering 170mm of plush control up front and Fox Float X EVol adding 160mm of capability at the rear – each with Kashima Coating and refined damping – you are getting the very best in enduro bike suspension performance.

The SRAM XO1 Eagle drivetrain offers a 500% gear range and next level shifting alongside improved longevity. Hope wheels, Race Face carbon bars and a 150mm drop, RockShox Reverb stealth dropper post, round off the great spec on this dialled big mountain MTB.

Meet the challenge on the Orange Alpine 6 Factory.
