Orca

The Orca — name from "Orbea Carbon" — launched in 2003 as the cooperative brand's leap into the high-end carbon race market. For two decades it served as Orbea's professional race weapon, ridden to UCI victories. The 2024 seventh generation was the boldest redesign in its history: abandoning the aero-influenced tube shapes of the previous model and returning to structurally-optimised round tubes, using 90 fewer carbon pieces in the OMX version for better properties and lower weight. The result set a new benchmark for the climbing race segment.
