just been on oranges website,defo gonna need a new post as the 5 is a 30.9 compared to 27.2 but both head tubes are 130 so should be ok will i??0

The new Orange is 30.9. Which one are you actually getting? The headtube is wider on the new Orange so can accepta tapered steerer, so you would need a step down lower cup.0

the new 5 has a flushfit headset, so yes you would need a need one0

cheers lads!
