More of your raw horse power actually turns into forward momentum on this bike. After six weeks I am still searching for the words. My Orca rips the descents of Western North Carolina better than any other road bike I've ever owned; including a Felt F1 and a Time. Gets you ticket to a true rocket ship ASAP.
Cheers,

Orbea says
The new version of the Orca is a Pro bike, lightweight and with an amazing design. The perfect relationship between weight, lateral rigidity and vertical flexion. The UCI Pro Tour team Euskaltel Euskadi have vouched for its efficiency, ease of handling and stability, and our Olympic champion Samuel SA nchez tests out the safety of the Orca on even the most complex descents.
