You want the M series bikes, and remember the Orca is race geometry (Orbea is the manufacturer, Orca is the model). Also it should come with a 10 or 11 speed 105 groupset or even an Ultegra groupset.
If you want more relaxed geometry look at the Orbea Avant (again stay with the M series as they are carbon fiber and lighter than the aluminum).
You should be able to find a 2015-2016 in either of these bikes for at or under $1000.00
