Who makes orange fixed frames?
 
I think NYC bikes does.

Any others?

time bandit 11-23-07 05:44 PM

you can get an orange motobecane from Bikesdirect.

Batson 11-23-07 05:49 PM

you can also paint any frame that you might like.

Milwaukee Bicycle company - came in orange:

KHS did the Flite in orange for a while.

But as Batson says, you could get a frame powder coated/enamelled pretty cheap and you wouldn't be picking a bike solely on its colour.

Iro makes the Angus in orange this year

sniks 11-23-07 06:17 PM

find a frame you love then powder coat it
most orange frames have a real lax road geometry
not because they are orange, but its just is that way

i think the new kilo tt will be available in orange.

wearyourtruth 11-23-07 11:23 PM

milwaukee (always) and IRO (for now) are the 2 i thought of.

Merckx used to be famous for their orange. Torelli makes really nice orange bikes too.

I heard the new IRO Mark V Pro's are going to come in orange. I was going to wait for a local LBS to get them in, but bought a yellow frame instead.

ORANGE FTW

That orange had nothing to do with Eddy. It was the color of the teams sponsor, Molteni sausage. The orange "Molteni" painted frames have been made by Colnago, De Rosa, Falcon, Windsor, and probably others.

You should pair your orange frame with black components and make a sick jack-o-lantern bike.

i guess it kinda depends on where you go but i don't see it costing more that $150. I've had friends that had their car wheels powdercoated for $100

KOGA, or anything else raced by the Dutch national team.

exhibitx 11-24-07 11:24 AM

i know it has been mentioned already, but if you're really into an orange frame, go for the iro angus, it has reynolds 631 tubing and the geometry of those bikes is nice

helloamerican 11-25-07 12:14 AM

so, you would buy a bike based on color?

drewcifer 11-25-07 12:27 AM

so, you would buy a bike based on a small stamp on the bottom bracket shell?

Would a auto body shop do it?

you can contact GUNNAR...thay may do it in Orange for you at very very little extra cost, buts its more steep than a bikes direct bike...

The Milwaukee comes in orange as people have mentioned, and it's a great frame built by Waterford which would be another reason to get it. I just was at their store on Saturday and it's a great bike. The Standard frameset is road geometry and the Cream City is true track geometry and it's a very noticeable difference when they were side by side. The kicker I like about them so much is that the text is raised and polished, as well as a raised and polished silhouette of the state of WI. Nice details.

EDIT: I just looked on their ebay store and it looks alot different there than the one I saw in store. The details I mentioned are what I saw in person, the painted logo and headtube on the ebay store is different. Oh well. nice bike anyways...if you're close to Milwaukee, it's worth a trip to look at them in person.
