Orbea Rallon 2016/17 8
Parts
General Info
This bike is similar to my last Rallon but since it's now a Large with different suspension and new wheels, I decided it warranted a new Check. At 6' tall, I agonized over ditching the MD for the LG but I am absolutely loving the bigger frame. I am finding more speed with the extra cockpit room and not too sad about giving up some low speed maneuverability. The 2017 Fox stuff is superb and the Float X2 with the climbing lever is a big improvement over my BOS setup. The narrower Enve M60HV are more versatile than the 70HV and save some weight as well. Love everything about the new setup.
