Features | EC/DC: 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. 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. Disc or Rim Brakes: The Avant is unique in that it is fully compatible with traditional rim brakes as well as disc brakes. The advantage for the user is the choice. Products will be offered with both options, and the ability to make a swap from one brake style to the other is easy and simple. The frame is designed so that mounting hardware for the disc brakes is removable, leaving nothing but discreet, threaded bosses, with nothing to detract from the visual aesthetic of the bike. Lifetime Warranty: Orbea provides a lifetime warranty on every frame. We have total confidence in our products. Our constant efforts to ensure that Orbea bicycles are of the highest quality enable us to offer you the Orbea Lifetime Warranty. It guards against defects in materials and workmanship. Your warranty is activated using the unique registration number you'll find on the down tube. Once the process is complete, your bike will automatically receive its lifetime warranty. We'll have a record of your bike information should it get stolen, and you'll be able to take part in our drawings and events. You'll also have access to the latest news about Orbea, its sponsored teams and riders, and new product development. |
