Orange Bikes
Stage 7 Pro Full Suspension Mountain Bike - Gloss Silver (2024)

WARP FACTOR 29 - WHEN EVERY SECOND COUNTS
We've always had an obsession for speed, when you look at our past it's fairly clear to see that racing bikes has been one of the pillars the Orange brand is built on. So when we developed the Switch 7, our greatest enduro bike to date we always knew we would look to produce a full 29er version. It's time to get a move on...

Ladies and Gentlemen, it gives us great pleasure to introduce you to the Stage 7! A 29" wheeled, 170/162mm travel Enduro race bike built for the worlds fastest courses.

ENTER THE NEW STAGE 7
Taking its name from our ever popular 29" wheeled Stage family of bikes but going that bit bigger, faster, and harder, this bike is taking things a little more seriously.

The aim of the Stage 7 was to create a race bike with an outright focus on speed. Its sibling, the Switch 7 has been received exceptionally well and is truly a perfect weapon for racing at world class enduro events where tracks are tight and twisty. But like anything that's good at everything, there are times when you need a bit more…

It's hard to argue with the flat out speed that a full 29" wheeled bike can offer, so with the blueprint of the Switch 7 in hand and feedback from the World Cup team a new warp speed machine was born.

The Stage 7 is a true representation of Orange Bikes’ capabilities in frame development and production. The frame and each individual component have seen extensive FEA analysis and 3D modelling.
The Stage 7 is a UK made frame, manufactured by the hands of craftsmen with decades of experience, from flat sheets of aerospace grade aluminium to individually custom-fabricated tubes, seam-welded for each specific application, working in harmony with CNCed components from aluminium billet meticulously modelled and analysed. All produced manufactured and tested in the U.K at our own facility.

This all produces an aluminium frame with a weight less than that of many ‘carbon’ frames in its category. It also means we have a product that's strong, durable and fully recyclable at the end-of-life cycle.
