Overview
About this bike
The most dominant cross-country racer of the last decade, Julien Absalon, Olympic champion and 4-time World Champion, chooses the Alma for good reason. Thanks to one of the lightest frames on the market, Orbea's Alma climbs effortlessly, as if unaware of the gradient. Impressively rigid and efficient, the carbon frame's massive box-section down tube and 4-point seatstays ensure that every ounce of your power goes to the rear wheel. Plus, with a RockShox SID Team fork up front, top-of-the-line SRAM X.0 shifting, Avid Juicy Ultimate braking and Mavic's super-light Crossmax SL wheels, you'll enjoy precision control over any terrain.
