The Miii is Orange’s flagship 4X race bike. The blurb on the Orange site says:
“The MIII is unapologetically expensive. It’s a bike built to line up against the best racers in the world. It’s at home pumping through the trails or manualing park benches, but it’s born to race. Its stiffness and agility oozes confidence whether you’re pushing to clear that awkward triple or nose-diving into the backside of a tight landing. Get your snap on, scrub that first roller and leave the rest behind, unleash the MIII.”
Lucky for us – Wideopen team rider Dave has got one on long-term test and is racing the full NPS4X season and Bike Radar to put it through its paces.
Last issue you saw the frame – here’s a quick look at the full build. We took Dave (and the Miii) up to a couple of BMX tracks in Bristol for a shoot last week. Despite the rain, wind, fading light and kids dogging on top of the berms we got some shots in the bag and Dave had a good session.
Check out Dave’s mid-season write up in Wideopen issue 13… Which will be out soon, honest.
Thanks to Orange, Fli Distribution, Mojo and Silverfish for their support in getting the Miii built up and race ready.

I recognise the track, and it’s far more likely that they’re having a fight.
