• Testers are pleased that riders are offered the choice between a 1x or 2x drivetrain.

• Innegra fibers are integrated into the carbon frame to protect it from rock damage.

• Orro offers the Terra C in sizes XS to XL.

• Vredestein Aventura tires offer riders traction on gravel roads.

• On-road vibration is dampened by the pairing of a carbon fork with a carbon frame.

• Swapping the specced tires for something slicker makes this bike a capable endurance road bike or commuter, according to multiple experts.

• The 71° head tube angle is fairly slack and offers riders control maneuvering down steep descents.
