Orange RX9 Pro Gravel Bike

[gelfy666]

Orange RX9 Pro .... Size XL
Invisiframed from new and in superb condition.
6 months ago I had fitted,
Lauf fork
Hope RX4 calipers
Hope rotors
Hope Pro 4 Hubs
DT Swiss 650b rims
Hutchinson Tourareg 47mm tyres.
Drive train is Sram Rival 11sp.
It's booked in for a gold service before it goes.
It's a superb bike and I love it but my knees are shot and I'm changing to an electrical assist gravel bike.

Also comes with the original fork and Hope Caliper to fit it.

Located in Shropshire.

£1900
Yes it's alot of money but worth every penny.... I'm unfortunately not open to silly offers.
Thanks for looking.

Lovely bike. What height are you ? I think XL is too big for me.

 

[gelfy666]

I'm 6' 2" .
Yes it's a great bike, hate the fact that it may have to go.

That is beautiful.

Why don't you convert it to electric?

Had a bafang mid drive once and it was terrible in the damp weather.... And looks so cluttered with cables everywhere.

But you can get better ones now, Motor in the rear wheel.

I wouldn't say hub drive is better than mid drive personally.

Lovely bike by the way, glws!.

Yes but it's got a nice noisey Orange Hope hub now.

A fully integrated e-gravel is the way for me.... Or 2 new knees lol

Hey, I know it’s been a while since you had this bike but could I ask how you got the Hope RX4 caliper to fit onto the Lauf fork? Looks like it’s a post mount version but I’m struggling to find an adapter to fit the Lauf fork; the Shimano 140mm adapter fits the fork but the caliper doesn’t, where as the Shimano 160mm adapter didn’t fit the fork. I know the fork adds 20mm to the setup, did you end up with a 180mm rotor?

Any suggestions would be highly appreciate, been trying to work this out for a while but with little joy and brought too many adapters and style of caliper, both post and flat mount.

It’s ok, thought I’d ask just in case they got an email notification. Really been racking my brain on how to get around this tolerance issue.

Yes, it is a possibility. Just depends on whether or not the member set up his a/c preferences to receive email notifications on content created.
