Orbea Orca M20i 2017
Hi,
been looking for an upgrade on my current Cannondale caad8 for a while now and have come across this beauty (well, I think it is)
https://www.cyclesurgery.com/p/orbea-orca-m20i-2017-Q2315000.html?colour...
read some really positive reviews and the price reduction is really tempting me. The only aspect I'm unsure of is the Vision wheels.
Would appreciate your thoughts, in particular those who have one of these.
cheers

Ah-ha, I may just take you up on that! Cheers

Agree totally, thanks for your thoughts
It would appear less than 10% is going into the wheels so they will obviously be the weak point. Good frame and di2 for that price point looks very good value so I suppose it's a matter of how long you can live with the wheel set or whether the retailer would upgrade taking the existing ones RRP into account if the budget allows chucking a little more at it.
