Show Us Your Carbon!!!

[Kevin Airey]

Didn't realise there was a place to upload pictures of our carbon bikes and not seen any Orbea's on the pages, popular bike here in Spain, obviously.

Here is my Orbea Orca only equipped with 105 but changed wheels to Zonda's, been a great bike even better after a bike-fit in February this year. Born again biker back after 25 years and been riding on the road for 6 months this time around...

Sorry it's not a great pic!

If thats the surroundings you cycle in your not going to be very popular on here lol . Nice bike that and an awesome view

Unfortunately this is where I have to cycle.

Seriously does have its downsides though. I live on the Marbella coast and the winds through the Straits of Gibraltar can be horrific and when it rains well anyone that has lived in a hot/tropical country knows it really bounces down.

Not to mention now having to contend with the sun every day with temperatures into the high 30's/low 40''s.

Yep sure is tough :-)

This morning in Istan near Marbella.

Finally taken the plunge to carbon, my new Basso Laguna. Got her today and had a quick spin and as happy as when I tried one, first proper ride on Sunday...can't wait.

lol noooooooooooo i was guessing what set up Nico had on his Scott. I noticed the internal wiring grommits and that and was hoping he didnt have a fugly external battery for you to comment on. I was wrong lol

And i wouldnt be adverse to trying out DA this side of xmas when bambino is done and dusted

 

[Mr Haematocrit]
