I got a good deal on a new Orbea Terra M31e in infinity carbon green from 2023. It got delivered in its original packaging and when I unpacked it, I noticed the poor paintwork especially on the top tube, but also the head and seat tube. At first I thought it’s dirty and tried to clean it, but it didn’t help at all. Does anyone have any ideas or is this normal? It’s my first carbon bike.
The deal was so good (1.600€) that I still want to keep it. What do you say?

Thats just the “raw carbon” design. There is no thick paint on the carbon thats why you see parts of the layers. So it is intended that way. I really like it tbh. Also a steal for that price!
My bro it looks like a raw carbon finish. If it’s a mix of raw carbon and paint then it’s pretty cool.
You ordered a raw carbon finish and got just that.
