Great looking bike. I definitely wouldn't want to take that out in the rain.

D*mn Roberto!

One nice ride! Why the Red and not Record, like the Prince? A team/sponsor issue. Nothing against Red, just wondering ....

Thanks Bill and all. Yep we're Orbea/Sram lackies this year. Works for me as I never liked the DA front Der. on my 07 Ordu. Way too finicky.
The RED stuff is nice... and light too !

Looks great. Which part does the Campagnolo sticker refer to? :confused:
I'm guessing the rear wheel. I can see all the SRAM Red, ZIPP, and FSA stuff :thumbsup:

So, does Orbea own Lockheed, or is it the other way around?

Well known fact that stealth technology originated in the Basque Country :cool:

I'M a former military aviator, walked into a hanger one day to see a new aircraft and got the same feeling as the one I did seeing that ride. Can I say Hoolllly ****, that's awesome?

I believe you have both an 07 Orca (57) and a 08 Ordu (54). I wanted to see why you went with the 54 on the Ordu. I have a 07 Orca (54) and I am ordering an 08 Ordu. I am 5' 11" with a 32 pant inseam (not a true inseam). I can't see myself going down to a 51, but several people who have gotten this bike have gone down a size. All of the people that I know went from a 57 Orca to a 54 Ordu. Any opinion you might have would be appreciated.

I've owned and raced an 07 and now a new 08 Ordu.
The Ordu's geometry is completely different.
They should just label them SM, MD, LG, XL .
I am 6'0" with a 33" inseam.
I have always rode a 57cm road bike including 3 Orcas.
The 57cm (XL) Ordu is designed for someone with and inseam 34++/6'2"++ It would be way too big for me.
The 54cm (LG) Ordu is designed for a 30" - 34" inseam.
If you are a 32" inseam, the 54 Ordu should fit you well.
