Had a quick look and couldn't find a definitive answer.
Anyone had any past experience as to whether Orange will ship out raw frames? Do they come lacquered or with decals? Did it cost more?
Many thanks!

I do know a company up here in Scotland was getting them for custom painting, but it was in bulk. Best bet is to drop them an email and ask nicely.

From what my buddy said they don't anymore, he asked a few months ago.
But as grey said worth an email things could have changed due to demand etc.

If you fancy a laugh, email the Orange sales dept. Its so amazingly frustrating its like a cheesy 80s "how to" training video starring Peter Purves.

Given they introduced sterling silver powdercoat to look like raw they obviously aren't keen to sell raw to punters. Seen a raw Alpine but it was Rowan Sorrells old bike.

So short answer is no.

Do you mean raw as in the finished bike like they did a few years back or raw as in built but unpainted?

If it's the first I wouldn't have thought they'd be keen to do a one off but if it's the second I can't see why they wouldn't sell you a frame that they have not had to paint.

Give them a ring.
