    British firm - Orro bikes - anybody have any opinions to share?

    Glanced over a few in B2R a couple of years back and thought I'd wait til a few were being bought and used on the roads here before giving them another look.

    A special edition "Gold" has popped up for sale at a reasonable price so looking for any experiences either way.

    I love them. B2R have been doing them for a good few years now. The colours are fanastic, build quality looks impressive. I think they're great. The signature series ones are awesome looking. B2R had a great deal on a deep red coloured one but it didn't coincide with a bike purchasing window for me. I've seen the black and gold one as well - gorgeous John Player reminiscent. There's a fella with one that I seen a few times in Laragh. They're disc aero bike is lovely too.

    Bottom line - I haven't yet, but I definitely would.

    that's a decent price for an 853 framed bike with full 105:

    That Ferrum is indeed a beautiful bike. I have my eye on a vintage steel frame at the moment so won't be shopping for steel brand new.

    Gorgeous though, and a lifetime bike if treated well I'd say.
