Haven't ridden one yet, but it looks hot! Here's a picture so the forum can readily witness Orbea's no-stickers Orca frame / modern art piece:

Yeah, that's a winner all right. One of the top five strikingly gorgeous head-turners unveiled at the shows last fall/winter.

Right up there with the Binachi L'una and the DeRosa Cinquauta.

bstephens --

You lucky, lucky b*stard...

Anyway, how's the Arione saddle? Been thinking about one of these myself.

Why didn't you get the Record Carbon seatpost? Mine arrived this morning, and it's a work of art...

Happy Riding!

I've got an Arione on an Alien post as well -- the Record Carbon is nice, but if you don't mind the wacky clamp, the Alien wins points for being just about the lightest post around.

Light but tough; the Giant factory MTB team races on Alien Carbon posts.
