stole your bike
I like mine better in terms of appearance, the 08 wasn't as filled with logos but I do like the improvements to the new model. However if you want to buy me the new one I won't say no.

That's pretty darn wicked but since I'm such a sucker for pink, I'd rather have this.

Needs more logos...
Way too subtle or whatever that means.

Paint it flat black and you might have something.

Hmmm...that is quite nice. The LBS offered me a brand new 09' frame for just $1400, and I'm thinking of picking it up to build another bike though. I do like Orbeas.

Definitely nicer than the current one. Never been a big fan of Orbea though. I don't mind shapes, just not "strange" ones.

Looks great, but (presumably) 12 instances of 'Orbea' on the frame is a bit much... maybe cut it down to 'only' 8?

When I looked at Orbea a year ago the top end model was very nice but the other bikes were relatively heavy.
