Currently in the lucky situation of “having” to choose a bike from those brands.
Since I don’t get along too well the the geometry of endurance road bikes I intend to go for a more aggressive position. Main distances for rides are ranging from 30-100km. Wouldn’t classify myself as a beginner anymore, so more immediate already. Currently living in Germany having access to some nice hills around me.
Maximum Budget is 4.000ā¬ list price, bike must be new since Iām leasing it on my employer. So no pre-owned bikes or discounted bikes that originally cost more than 4.000ā¬. My favourites so far are the Orbea Orca M30i 2024 and the Orca M35. However it is very difficult for me to decide between Shimano 105 Di2 with alloy wheels vs. Shimano 105 mechanical with carbon wheels.
Would love to hear your thoughts on this difficult decision to be made. š
