Cannondale Super6 vs Orbea Orca
Quote | Reply
I am looking at a new road bike, 2 bikes that I have found that I like and are in stock are the Cannondale Super 6 and the Orbea Orca.
Both are with the 105 group, I realize that this is a very specific question but I am just curious if anyone has looked or has any insights on these 2 bikes?.
The Orbea is about $700 cheaper which I can't seem to understand why, They are both full 105 with house brand wheels, is the Cannondale a way better bike (the color is nicer but I dont know if that warrens $700).
Anyone ridden both or done research into them?.

I'd have the bike shops weigh them.

Does one have a rear derailleur that can handle a wider gear range, like a mid or long cage derailleur?

Are the chainrings the same size on each?

Does one have better (carbon fiber) seat post, stem or handlebars?

Does it look like either of them will except a wider tire, 25 or 28mm?

Thank you for responding.

I think the Orbea is slightly heavier but I am not sure.

Both come with mid cage RD, which is something that I want.
Both of them definitely take 28's, I think the Orbea goes up to 30.
Though to say about the cockpit, I think they both use "house brands" but that a good point, I will check.
