The Orbea Terra features all road geometry. It's designed to be at home on dirt, gravel, cx and tarmac. With its clearance you can fit mudguards with ease and up to 40c tyres, as well as a rack. Ideal for those who are into bikepacking.
A longer wheelbase means that is it more stable on rough terrain. The position is a little bit shorter and higher than on a road bike, giving an increase in comfort, but it's certainly not a slow bike!
The lifetimes guaranteed monocoque frame weights just 1190g and is comprised of 150 pieces of individually cut pre-pegged carbon fibre. This means that very complex shapes can be made with a minimum of excess.
This Orbea Terra comes with a Shimano Ultegra disc-brake groupset featuring a FSA Supercompact Chainset with 48/32 chainrings, Mavic Aksium wheels and Schwalbe G-One 40c tyres!
