Took my Orro Terra C for its first proper ride yesterday.
It's got all the mod cons - thru axles, flat mount brakes, 42mm tyre clearance, removable front mech hanger etc. It also has some very tidy cabling and the frame (which is reinforced with something called Sigmatex Innegra on on the insides of the chainstays and fork blades to reduce vibration and strengthen these areas) weighs 1060g.
It was £1400 for F&F or £1800 for a whole bike with 105, Spyres, Fulcrum wheels and 3T finishing kit, so the whole bike was a no brainer and I've transferred my own bits across. That's what you get for buying a bike from i-ride's in house brand.
I need to ride it more but it's been a blast so far - feels fast, light and soaks up the bumps very well.
