What Orange Mountain Bikes Offer the Female Rider

Nobody can deny the glaring differences between the male and female forms. The physical differences between the sexes have long dictated the need for different sized and shaped clothing and sporting equipment: so why should mountain bikes be any different? These days the mountain bike designers are taking the differences into consideration. Most mountain bike manufacturers now offer women specific designs- WSD for short. For &LINK1%, the ultimate WSD bike is the Diva, carefully designed by brains at Orange mountain bikes HQ to suit the female physique, giving smaller female riders all the comfort and confidence that is lost when they get on a traditional mountain bike.

The average female rider will have no questions over the necessity of WSD models. Models aimed at male riders put women in a stretched position, leading to an uncomfortable ride and a lack of control producing difficulty on even the simplest terrain. The various Diva models are specifically designed by Orange mountain bikes to bring back the control on the trails.

Orange mountain bikes supply both a Diva hardtail and Five Diva, the WSD version of the well known and loved full suspension model. Both feature ‘the perfect geometry for the smaller feminine physique.’ The designers behind Orange mountain bikes made the Diva with the aim of placing the rider in a central position on the bike for better control and a more stable ride. A shorter top tube and steeper seat tube angle push the rider forward over the bike. This riding position keeps weight on the front end and provides a more confident riding position. The bikes provide manoeuvrability and controlled climbs.

Riders of under 5 feet tall can easily be accommodated on these bikes, thanks to their low stand over clearance. But the beauty of these models is that, amongst the female specific changes, Orange mountain bikes have left the technology intact.
