I have a 2011 Orbea Aqua aluminum frame with 105 groupset that is awesome. Absorbs road well and the componetry is great for the money. Bought mine new one year old at my LBS for under $1000 but a new one today with Rival is around $1300 roughly. Well worth it too.
That said.............I bought a 2013 Orca with Rival and now ride it. Different ride??? Yes but if not for the deal I got I would be happy to remain on the Aqua. Now if my co-worker will buy it like he said he would I will recoup some of the money on the full carbon Orca!
