Feature Friday: Orville's Mean Green


You really shouldn't judge a book by its cover.

At first glance, it looks like your run-of-the-mill built bike you get from your local dealer. But if you look at it closely you'd really appreciate how every part of this bike complements each other, not just by looks, but also of quality.

The stealthy military green paint on this really does its job, hiding a gold mine in plain sight.

This is definitely in my list of my favorite Ave Maldea frames built-up.
