Summary
The Orbea Orca is a high-performance race bike that excels in speed, handling, and aerodynamics, offering a blend of stiffness and comfort suitable for competitive racing and long rides. Its customization options through the MyO program and increased tire clearance enhance its appeal. While it shines in aerodynamics and climbing, some riders may find its ride quality firm and its design less distinctive than previous models.

Cycling WeeklyIt’s one of the best-handling aero bikes we’ve tested this year.

Fast and fast handling, custom options aplenty
Firmer ride than a standard race bike

Distilled to its core, the Orca Aero is a sleek machine for flat, fast days.
Aug 2017 · James Huang
Orbea has long shied away from the aero road bike scene, instead focusing more on low weight and high stiffness for its flagship Orca range. But that all has now changed with the introduction of the Orca Aero, which combines the standard Orca’s proven geometry with a sleek and modern shape to help it slice […]
