Features | Direct Post Mount: The Direct Post Mount offers simpler and cleaner brake integration. This means better performance, less maintenance, and lower weight. The Orbea Direct Post Mount design allows the direct attachment of your rear brake calliper to the mount on the bike frame. Without the addition of an adapter, you’ll benefit from a lighter, stronger system that provides better braking performance and less maintenance. And with no potential for unwanted movement in the system, this virtually eliminates brake chatter and squealing produced by harmonics that can develop in the stacked pieces of typical adapter systems and that can radiate throughout the bike frame. Press Fit: Press Fit offers simple installation, low maintenance, and minimizes potential for creaky bottom brackets. We use Press Fit bottom brackets for a variety of reasons. Installation is simplified, as the BB unit is pressed directly into the frame until the shoulders of the cups rest against the outer edge of the shell. The nylon sleeves reduce the need for extremely tight machine tolerances, and they reduce the potential for creaking should the bottom bracket area become contaminated with mud and grit. The wider shell is also beneficial because we can increase the diameter or width of the intersecting tubes to increase torsional stiffness at the bottom bracket area. Tapered Head Tube: The Tapered Head Tube is the foundation that provides stiffness and stability for precise handling in all conditions. The forces acting on a head tube can be extreme, especially at high speeds or over rough surfaces. Our Tapered Head Tube provides improved rigidity and steering precision. All of our bikes that use the tapered system get a 1-1/8 to 1-1/2” bearing system. We’ve found that this dimension offers the best balance of weight, function, and durability. The Tapered Head Tube is also a principle element of our frame designs, whether in carbon or hydroformed aluminium, that provides greater stiffness and stability by allowing larger tube junctures at the front of the bike where stresses are high. Di2 Ready: Electronic or mechanical shifting? Our system ensures that you can be the one to decide. With the introduction of electronic systems, shifting your bike is as effortless as a mouse click, and the performance borders on surgical precision. That said, mechanical systems are better than ever before and can offer similar world-class performance. The Orbea EC/DC or Electronic Circuit/Direct Cable system allows either, and the choice is yours to make. EC/DC relies on built-in pathways that allow the installation of traditional mechanical cables or electronic wires for the connections between your shifters and derailleurs. Either way the goal is streamlined design and supreme shifting performance. |
