Orbea Orca OMX 2023
Moderator: robbosmans
Hi everyone.
I'm looking for information on the new Orca OMX, does anyone have any feedback on the riding experience, handling and comfort of this bike?
If possible, I would like your comments on the difference you found with other bikes you use or have used.
Thanks in advance.

I have the new Orca OMX and I had the older OMX before. The new one is a little more agile. It is stiff enough and yet comfortable enough. Climbs are particularly fun to ride. But descents also go very well. I don't find the new OMX any slower on the flat. In my opinion, the aero advantage of the old Orca OMX is not present, or at most marginal. My new one is 6.340 g, the older was 7.320g.

I really like your handlebar, what type is it?
Is it stiff or it have a good vibration dumping?

I have an Orca but it is from 2015. Obviously the geometry may be different on the new Orca but if it follows the pattern of the older Orcas it will be a very racy geometry.Rone69 wrote: ↑Sun Mar 10, 2024 10:23 amHi everyone.

Thanks in advance. Hello Neighbor
I use it all summer long but after a long ride you certainly know you have been on it!
