The 224 is Orange's top downhill World Cup winning frame and in 2006 took the World Championship with Tracey Hannah riding.
The 224 can be set up for full on downhill racing or freeriding depending on your interests. It has a sliding CNC'd shock mount which allows you to adjust the travel and geometry of your bike to suit your preferences.
The frame comes with a Fox DHX5 coil rear shock with 215mm of rear travel and 12mm bolt through rear axle. A wide variety of forks can be fitted to match, up to 200mm of travel.
