Free willy!
Orca build! My frame is in! I'm hoping it gets built by tomorrow!
This will be my second road bike, also my second Orca. I'm pretty stoked.

Thought this was going to be a bike shorts/bibs thread.

Nice. Look forward to pics.
But what is with posting in separate posts what could have been done in one? It is silly enough when Pcad does it

I like my girls like I like my bikes, light!
very, they had everything in stock, the frame took a day to ship! I wish I were home to bug the shop about it, I'm sure they're glad I'm not there

It's 55cm I wasn't there for them to weigh it. I'll post final weight after build, that's all that matters

I got the frame for 3k even! Retail on myO.orbea.com came to 8300Ish...my shop hooked it up for 6150
It's been a long time since I've been this excited. I should've used the money for a new car (I drive a beat up truck) but I don't care at all about what a drive. I hardly drive anyways, I got a girl do I'm not trying to pick up chicks....I think it's money well spent.
