5 reasons not to buy

- At around 22lb, the Avant's triple-butted, hydroformed aluminum frame is heavy.

Bottom line
The latest generation of the Avant, Orbea's versatile aluminum-framed endurance road bike, is disc-only, with a redesigned frame and sleek integrated cockpit. This new design gives it the look of a high-end model. However, reviewers were disappointed that Orbea's overemphasis on integration and looks means lower build kit quality and limited cockpit adjustability. Nevertheless, experts appreciate this bike's general performance, ride comfort, and wide tire clearance, ideally suited to long-distance road adventures and potentially light gravel rides.Expert Reviews
