A new breed of Hardtail Freerider
If the Evo4 is the one of the toughest bikes out there, then the Crush is the blood relation that we've kept chained in the attic for years. In fact, we're somewhat concerned that some sneaky genetic modification may have gone on behind our backs, ’cos the Crush is definitely sticking its gnarly elbows into SubZero terrain.
Where the Evo4 responds to being ridden hard, the Crush positively demands it. The thumping great 130mm travel Manitou Stance Blunt forks respond to the Smash and Grab style of trail riding, especially with Orange's custom specification of Evil Genius™ seals/semi bath lubrication for improved performance in tough, wet, gritty UK conditions. Burly Truvativ components keep the rider firmly in control. As with the Evo4, the more energy you can throw at the Crush the bigger your grin is going to be.
Ride it, tame it, give it some stick and reap the rewards. Oh... and a last bit of advice... Don’t turn your back on it!

Useful
as geometry figures are, we cannot emphasise enough how important
it is that you try a bike for size at your dealer. We are
all different shapes and sizes and it is impossible to fit
a bike by numbers alone. Your dealer will help you get it
right.
