Subject: RE: Orbea Avant M30 for triatlhon? Endurance bike? An endurance bike is really just a bike more relaxed geometry and sometimes a different (more compliant ) carbon layup. It's still a good bike, but keep in mind that the taller head tube won't let you get very deep in front (which can actually be a good thing unless you're really flexible ) and the slack geometry, although comfortable in the long run, won't handle as well.
It's not a bad choice, but you really need to think about what you want from the bike. An all-day bike, then it's a great choice. A race machine for shorter distance, then it's not the best choice. An aerodynamic option, then get a tri bike. |
