With this racing bike, you will fly up the mountains like never before. Nothing beats the feeling of a lightweight and efficient racing bike. Rapid acceleration, damping, and agile handling are based on a frame that is not only particularly light but also particularly stiff in the crucial areas. The ultimate climbing machine!
To make the Orca as light as possible, we had to tweak many small details. We paid attention to every detail and chose the highest quality materials across all models. And we viewed the Orca as a total work of art. This means that from the very beginning, we collaborated with the developers of the components and wheels to optimize stiffness and weight. There’s no point in having the lightest racing bike if it’s not also stiff and efficient. That’s why we set a stiffness goal from the start in the development of the Orca, so that even the strongest climbers can efficiently transfer their power to the road. With this goal in mind, we developed the Orca to be as light as possible.
A truly lightweight racing bike offers a very special riding experience. We love that direct propulsion as soon as you start pedaling. Or the immediate responsiveness and agile handling when you cut through the corners. Our cleverly designed frame proves that a stiff racing bike can indeed be comfortable. Slimmer, rounder areas of the frame improve damping and help save energy for long rides. And with a tire clearance of 32 millimeters, the new Orca offers more grip and comfort. The Orca is based on our understanding of performance and design. It represents our belief that a racing bike must look great and ride even better. The minimalist design with timeless lines gives the Orca its own unique style. And beneath the beautiful exterior lies state-of-the-art technology.
