Orbea Ordu M30 (2014)

Sometimes brutal simplicity is what you need for success. That’s the undercurrent for the build on the Ordu M30 – simple and effective, like a good sharp knife. We pair the high modulus carbon fiber Ordu OMR frameset with Shimano Ultegra 11-speed components. Ultegra is the self-sponsored racer’s choice, and it’s been that way for years. The cabling for the shifting and rear brake is run completely inside the frame, for a clean aesthetic without disturbing the sleek aerodynamic tube shaping. It looks fast, and it is. Andrew Starykowicz used the Ordu to set the current bike split world records for Ironman and Ironman 70.3 distances.
