I've got a Richard Sachs team jersey, but it's the standard Sachs red, not orange. Maybe I should wash it in some bleach, just for the seasonal effect?

I can make mine that color, depending on the light and exposure. :)

Ok, it’s no secret that I’m colorblind.
what I see as orange might be green. Just ask Merziac/Van.
anyway, if I were to consult Pantone or Crayola, that last bike looks the same to me.
was a filter used?
also…. I’ve never ridden a Richard Sachs bike but from what I’ve read, nothing but mad respect for his framebuilding capabilities.
but, I do wonder if people ever shorten the name.

I agree that is a beautiful bicycle, the dark wood really makes that color something special.
