This big bicycle is made to meet all conditions, close to the domain of the mythical Condor. Ultra stable with its MTB wheels the Orca will dominate as well uptown traffic as unexpected obstacles on a sinuous cycle trails. Numerous world travelers in extreme conditions tested this bike for you since its introduction in 2001. The 26 inch wheels allow you to leave for all continents and find your tires easily in any size and profile. The Orcas high oscillating handlebars allow you easy access and to put a foot on the ground under any circumstance. As on the Lynxx these handlebars are telescopic with adjustable angle of both stem and bars for a free vision and a handling to your taste. The Orca is a convertible model and can also be delivered in the under steer version USS (indirect low handlebars), which can also be modified afterwards if your riding appetite tends to evolve. For cyclists shorter than 1.70m we recommend the Lynxx for the same road menu. The geometry of the Orca is not very different from a suspended high racer, so you can expect a performance close to it, especially if you decide to add light weight compenents to it such as carbon seats or airshocks. Nevertheless we have also seen very mean Orcas with huge damping and fat tires. If you wish to ride it this way or the other, around your home or around the world, the Orca leaves all options open.
