I am looking at buying a TRI bike and debating between the Cervelo P2C and the Orbea Ora Limited. I have done TRI's on a road bike for years and want to step up to a bike that is a good value. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Mike

I'm in the same situation with the same questions. I'm also looking at the Valdora PHX. Any help would really be appreciated.
Thanks.

I believe that both are about the same price for the frameset, both are carbon, both have similar weights, and even similar warranties. The only major differences I see in a side to side comparison are their designs.... The Ora has that weird cutout of a seat tube...the Cervelo has more of a traditional seat tube. One is made in Canada and one in Spain (both with tubes from China/Taiwan!) Other than that, I guess performance-wise, it would depend on your preference. The Cervelo has a proven TT and Triathalon design, and has won triathalons:
I'd like to see if any TT's have been won on an Ora.

Any thoughts on/knowledge of the Valdora?

Well, I don't know too much about Valdora..... I'd say they have a rather unorthodox tri design to them.... with a slanted top tube, the phx has the look of a compact road frame rather than a tt bike. Price wise, the also seem to be more expensive than either the Orbea or Cervelo.

Thanks.
Life was much easier when all I needed to do was go to the Schwinn store and pick up the Varsity when I outgrew my 5 speed.
