Orbea ORCA Gold
The Orbea ORCA Gold - Going fast, extremely fast, and looking good, extremely good, if those things matter to you, look no further, the ORCA gold is your bike! If you think that anytime there is more than 1 person on a ride, it’s a race, the Orbea ORCA Gold is for you. This bike rides as good as it looks, and it looks Great. Just once glance at the ORCA sitting still will take your breath away!
This bike isn’t just another pretty face however! The Orca is a technological marvel, employing the most advanced bicycle design features in the world:
Monocoque Construction: The tension is optimally distributed over the entire structure, there are no seals and no joints and critical areas are therefore minimized. This means your frame will stand up to the toughest use, and the structure will not lose any of its characteristics, however far you ride it. Monocoque technology assures the perfect fusion of the composite materials, not only on the visible external layers but also internally, thus preventing any loss of performance caused by fatigue at the joints, which is not the case for the more traditional, cheaper type of frame construction. The paintwork remains intact as there are no joints. It is a solid, one-piece structure, it is not made up of separate parts joined together… do you need any more reasons for choosing an Orbea monocoque frame?
AIZonE by Orbea: The Aizone Project (Aerodynamic Investigation Zone) developed in the San Diego Low Speed Wind Tunnel, has enabled Orbea to achieve extensive knowledge on aerodynamics. Thus, on the new Orca we have optimized the aerodynamics by 14%. I.e., we have reduced the drag or frictional surface, achieving a faster and more stable bike.
Size Specific Nerve (SSN) Technology: Each bike size is designed individually, optimizing the frame structure according to the stiffness ratio and the cyclist’s body mass. The result is six individually-designed frames, 100% exclusive and perfectly balanced.
Attraction: is the smoothness all cyclists desire. Remove road interactions with the body to obtain the best performance. Optimizing the displacement of power to the wheels. Developing more control over the machine for the road. Enhanced traction regardless of terrain or weather. That's Attraction. The fork and rear triangle of the new Orca have been designed with improved shaping to optimize your performance. Its purpose is to absorb vibrations and irregularities of the road without compromising lateral stiffness, maximizing performance on the bike and achieving optimal pedaling
This is a true “pro” level bike, with looks to match! If you want the best road bike available anywhere, you want the Orbea ORCA Gold! Available in six sizes, four colors and eight build kits, there is an Orca Gold for you!
