Introducing the Orange Switch 7 Pro Full Suspension Mountain Bike 2023, an embodiment of the relentless pursuit of excellence in mountain biking. Derived from the popular MX-wheeled Switch 6, the Switch 7 has undergone a radical transformation, pushing the boundaries of performance, speed, and durability.
Orange’s vision for the Switch 7 was clear – to create a race-ready powerhouse, capable of conquering the most challenging tracks worldwide. In pursuit of this goal, they amalgamated their extensive knowledge with feedback from EWS racers and their factory racing program. The result is a bike that’s poised to compete at the highest level of racing.
At its core, the Switch 7 is a testament to Orange Bikes’ prowess in frame development and production. Each aspect of the frame and its components has undergone rigorous FEA analysis and 3D modeling, ensuring optimal performance and identifying potential issues. Real-world prototype testing has further validated the design, with input from the test team, Factory Racing squad, and riders renowned for pushing bikes to their limits.
The use of FEA for deflection and fatigue analysis has fine-tuned the frame’s strength and compliance, setting new industry standards. Despite the intentional Orange frame silhouette, a significant transformation has occurred. Crafted in the UK by skilled artisans, this aerospace-grade aluminum frame boasts a weight that rivals carbon frames in its category. Notably, it’s exceptionally robust, durable, and eco-friendly, fully recyclable at the end of its life cycle.
