Orro bikes

[kingrollo]

Some folks at the club have them. Not aware of any problems - look like really nice bikes for the money.

A shout out for Dolan Tuono disc - which is comparably priced and I am pretty happy with mine.

Edit:- The Ultegra Dolan is a tad under £2700 which seems a good deal to me.

Just been into the LBS and they have a few Orro bikes in there. Very reasonably priced. Just need to persuade the boss to break the cycle to work scheme internal cap limit so I can go mad on a Ti frame with DI2.

I think I better persuade the real boss first that it is a good investment before raising it with work

I think we had someone here buy one of those @Supersuperleeds . He had a few problems with it and turned into a bit of an orro story as I remember.

Thanks @Cycleops ! A 58? I thought a 54 (M) or a 56 (L). I guess different brands have slightly different sizing approaches though!

I would have said 56...

It also says depends on your ride style stretched out or more relaxed cycling..

Just been into the LBS and he told me they the parent company of Orro has gone into admin. Glad I held off buying one now.

The brands have been bought by PlanetX's owner, but everything else is sadly liquidated: https://www.cyclingweekly.com/news/...ed-by-planet-x-owner-but-staff-made-redundant

Re-badged PlanetX's appearing as Orro's?

Always fancied an Orro bike. They did always look smart.

An Orro source said that the bike brand was set to continue where it left off once everything was all set up and ready in a few weeks' time.

He also said that the website would probably be ready to go by the middle of next week and that the company would have Sussex premises and phone lines within a few weeks.

Paul Butler of Orro Bikes is "delighted to be working with the Baaj Capital group to secure Orro’s future as a leading British bicycle manufacturer and is excited to continue the brands growth and development. We look forward to strengthening our partnerships with our IBD network".

suggests it may carry on as a stand alone business but who knows...

The Terra looks a nice bike
