Orbea Orca Aero M20TEAM Disc Road Bike 2021

Combining aerodynamics and efficiency into one svelte silhouette, the Orbea Orca Aero M20TEAM Disc Road Bike is the perfect partner for whenever the pace is relentless. Mixing advanced materials, innovative design and esteemed components the Orca Aero is ideal for solo breakaways, punching across rolling terrain or for charging through the flamme rouge en route to the finish line.

The highest grade of carbon is utilised in the frame construction, and this is realised in a lightweight, monocoque form that has a flowing aesthetic. Each tube section of the frame is chiselled with a double radius curve and truncated rear edge to realise optimum aerodynamic performance, and this is complemented by bowed fork legs and an elliptical seat post. The core of the frame is subsequently reinforced via a complex carbon layup to grant punchy and efficient power transfer for when sprinting or riding tempo.

The Vision Trimax TC 35 wheelset is nimble and laterally resilient to grant a reactive sensation under acceleration. The mid-depth aluminium rim provides control and composure when the crosswinds strike while its broad internal rim width helps to lower the rolling resistance and improve the comfort of any tubeless-ready or clincher tyre.

A reliable and exact Shimano Ultegra R8000 gear set up provides slick shifting through a wide range of ratios allowing the rider to conquer any terrain. At the same time, the hydraulic disc brakes from the same moniker bestow confidence thanks to their assured stopping performance within any weather conditions.
