Orbea Orca M40 Disc Road Bike 2022

The Orbea Orca M40 Disc Road Bike is a lightweight and responsive road bike designed to excel in any race scenario. The specification and performance belie its low price, with the OMR carbon frameset, hydraulic disc brakes and fully internally routed cabling highlighting its exceptional value. The 10-speed Shimano Tiagra drivetrain features trickle-down technology from Shimano’s higher-end offerings and comes complete with a wide range 11-34t cassette to tackle any gradient. Thru-axle hubs provide long-lasting smooth performance and a carbon seatpost and fork damp vibration to reduce fatigue on longer rides.

The culmination of meticulous design, the M40 shares many of its features with top-spec models in the Orca lineup, with its stiff and lightweight frame being the product of an optimised carbon lay-up. Orbea’s house-brand wheels are lightweight and durable, while the race-inspired geometry delivers pinpoint handling on the road.
