Couldn't be happier
Can't go wrong for the price. Especially if you buy a complete bike like the Ora Ltd. You can always upgrade over time. Definitely the best aero-carbon bike out there for the budget triathlete.
Great price for carbon and will still get you respect when you rack at transition area.
Is it fast? You should ask the people I buzz on this thing!!!
If I could give this bike more than 5*'s, I would!
I purchased the Orbea Ora Ltd a month ago, and can not put into words how great this bike is. Orbea has a made-to-order program, but the Ltd is a set package of primarily Ultegra components (full details on their website) for an incredible price. I've now raced on it twice as well as doing a couple of 30+ mile rides to break it in, and it's amazing. The position isn't as aggressive as some other tri bikes, but the first time I sat on it, it felt like it was made for me. I'm not a podium finisher, so I'll trade a degree or two of aggressiveness for a touch of comfort.
Made to order, you can have it delivered to you with top of the line components, wheels, etc. The Ltd has lower-end wheels and a few other pieces that you might want to upgrade as time goes on, but I don't consider that a con so I didn't mention it above. It's what Orbea did to make this bike affordable, and then you can play from there. I'm upgrading the wheels, as well as the seat (but that's just a personal preference).
This is my first TT bike, so I'm definitely being a bit cautious right now, but I know this bike has so much potential in it, once I'm ready to unleash it. It might be my first tri bike, but it's definitely not an entry-level ride.
And, if it matters to you, it's serious eye candy. Every time I'm on it, some random person comments on it or stops to ask me a question. So, if you want an amazing ride that stands out from the ones everyone else is riding, check out Orbea's line.


Smooth as Silk
I bought this bike at the end of February custom built with:
Full SRAM Force groupset and crank/bb
Profile Carbon Cobra Wing and Cobra Clip-ons
Selle Italia N2 saddle
Speedplay Zero pedals
Zipp Flashpoint 60 clinchers
This bike is easy to get up to speed and even easier to hold that speed. I picked up an easy 2mph coming off my Trek road bike. Not a whole lot of flex in the rear triangle so all your power goes straight to the rear wheel. I was hesitant about this bike before buying it, but after riding I haven't once regretted the decision. This bike is worth every penny you put into it. The only thing that would hold this bike back is the rider.
