2012 Orbea Ordu - Stock brakeset?
Quote | Reply
Shimano levers (Dura-Ace TT78 I think?) and Orbea calipers. Purchased this bike used and was wondering if these actually came from the factory like this. Also, if these are the levers I think they are, are these calipers also decent? The pads on them are shaped like Shimano Ultegra. I'm confused.

Turns out the levers are not dura Ace, but are tt78. Brakes appear to be Orbea-branded Shimano...? Is that a thing?

Probably some relabeled Tektro/TRP calipers. Certainly more than sufficiently capable, especially with a set of Kool Stop pads.

As Gary P mentions above, likely manufacturer-relabeled Tektros or similar. I have a set of "Cervelo" calipers in my parts bin that are identical to the ones you pictured.

Thanks so much. I really appreciate the info. They seem pretty serviceable so I'll just swap out the pads for now. Thanks!
