Can anyone help with a chain guide for a 2016 Orange Five?
God knows why orange use the old ISCG mounts.
The frame also has the direct mount on the seat tube. Does anyone know of a low direct mount guide? Oneup Comonents used to make one which would have been perfect but they don't appear to make it any longer.
What chain device is everyone running on their Oranges.
I’ve a gamut guide on mine, but purchased when I got the bike in 2016.
Nukeproof or Funn might do a direct mount. What about bb mount?
I ran a 77 designz freesolo iscg old but the no longer make that.
They do a low direct mount though.Here
I have that exact guide on my Solarismax, only the ISCG-05 version, works grand. Not quite as well thought out as the Oneup top guide but not so far off it, just a little heavier and a little fiddlier to mount. No complaints at all.
To answer your question though, I think Orange put in an order for the biggest box of ISCG mount plates available, in the last hours of 2004 and then came the new standard, they're been using them up ever since. Think they finally made it onto 05 now though.
