Whatcha think about Saccy's carbon Orbea prospects?
Better than a carbon Specialized?
I'm not the full on Orbeas, but they seem to be a classy bike -- being made in
Spain, and all
I rode the Orca in my 'search for the holy grail'. I liked it, certainly light, a bit 'aggressive' or twitchy in the front end, felt more 'softer' than the 486. I rated it highly, but behind the standouts, 486, VRXS & C50....but higher than the Scott CR1,Madone, 6-13 & miles ahead of the rubbish frames. I like the look of the Onix I saw at the show. The guy told me it was a taiwanese frame, made to Orbea specs & priced to get some of the TCR's market share....I reckon it will do well. I might just have to get me a ride on one o' these. If saccy's missus has said yes, he'd better move quick, cos if she's like most woman, she'll have changed her mind by the end of next week....either that or she's after something for herself that costs a bob ....beware saccy....this bike is gunna cost you heaps in brownie points!
