I live in the caribbean and tryed a bianchi intenso, used it for a 200 km ride and enjoy every second. The problem is that in my country we dont have a bianchi dealer so we have to import it.
In the other hand we have orbea dealers, so test drive a orca, and a valiant, felt the valían as slow, and enjoy the 5 km ride on the orca.
Choices: Import the bianchi intenso from the us, it comes with shimano 105 11 gears vs orbea orca coming with shimano 105 as well.
Or upgrade the orbea right away to ultegra for 700 more dollars.
Girls need advice, so please help me out

Hello and welcome. Why do you need Ultegra? You know what Eddy Merckx said 'Don't buy upgrades, ride up grades'. I really don't think it's going to add seven hundred dollars worth of enjoyment to your riding, perhaps you think it will.
I'd go with the Bianchi, for me it's the history and all that's associated with it.
Go for it girl.
