CroMo steel with webbed tubing matrix

Yeh. A typography matrix.
Load of rubbish.

You didn't specify what type of matrix.

Well it's not a metallurgical matrix and it's not a mathematical matrix either.
So I am calling BULLSHIT once again.

@novocaine has explained it in nice easy words for you already.

@novocaine has explained it in nice easy words for you already.

And why are you saying "nice easy words". Eh?
Are you insinuating that I am stupid?
Grow up!

No, I'm merely saying it's been explained in an easy to understand manner.

Forget it. You seem to have some kind of 'problem' with me.

Pure marketing bullshit?

Maybe - but my curiosity is asking what the possible bullshit is referring to. Not seen it mentioned on any other P7 description & any differences between them & the Pure version don't give me any clues.

If they mean it is 'gusseted', then that's what they should say it is. Not invent their own terminology.

So - 'Double-butted cro-mo steel adds comfort and compliance, gusseted without extra gusset work and weight.'

Gusseted but not over gusseted? Not sure about that.

it's a matrix.
thats webbed
and tube shaped.

I'm guessing they are referring to the chain stay to BB.
a lot of modern builds have a cast web there, not something that is easy to do in steel (pish easy in ali though). I suspect they have designed a version that can be made in Steel where by they've linked across the stays with tubes. think crane structure.

Gusset and web aren't the same thing, a gusset is between to pieces that meet at an angle, web joins two pieces that don't meet (sort of, 2 bits that meet eventual can be webbed and gusseted).

It's got a chainstay bridge but that's not unique to the P7 Pure. Regular P7's have them. I googled the term without any success. I've asked Orange.

Picked it up last night for what I think is a bargain price. Completely original except pedals & possibly grips. Great condition. I had plans for the frame & flipping the rest but don't think I can! Just going to ride it as is for now.

completed off the wall but given it's orange I wouldn't be surprised if the tubing at key points has a lattice arrangement internally to add stiffness. be a bugger to do, but as I said, it's orange soooooo.

Doesn't it have a reinforcement at the top of the top tube where it joins to the head tube?
