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.

Lighter, stiffer, and more aero than previous model
Increased tire clearance to 28mm
Excellent handling in tight turns and pack navigation
Comfortable for long rides on rough surfaces
Ride is backboard-stiff overall
Feels more generic than ever
Unyielding ride quality can be wearing after several hours
Visual design is more generic and less distinctive

Just like those orange-clad riders in Tours de France of yore, the Orca is a superb climber whose only limitation when the road heads skyward is the ability of its rider.
Cycling TipsThe Orbea Orca Aero feels just that bit faster and more slippery than a non-aero machine of the same weight and with a similar spec.
Cycling WeeklyIt’s one of the best-handling aero bikes we’ve tested this year.

Aerodynamic design has noticeable effect at high speed
Heavy weight
Little concession to comfort

Brilliant handling dynamics set the Orca Aero apart from your average aero bike. Buy if you’re looking for race bike handling and an aero advantage but don’t mind a firmer ride
Fast and fast handling, custom options aplenty
Firmer ride than a standard race bike
