Orbea Alma 29 OMR + Spirit Frameset

Alma is for the the quickest lap times and the steepest climbs. Alma is for the strongest accelerations and highest altitudes. Alma is for the biggest stages, the loudest fans, and the toughest riders. Alma is for the fiercest competitors, the athletes who accept nothing less than superlatives.

Refinements of Alma’s World Cup Geometry reflect the evolution of elite racing, like a slacker head angle (69.3º/69.5º) that provides stability on increasingly demanding tracks. A steeper seat angle and lower stack height increase handling precision and pedaling efficiency, and shorter (420/430mm) chainstays deliver maximum agility without instability. Orbea also engineered a natural flex point into the top tube by adding a fourth bend. This minimizes the effects of cornering stress and terrain impacts on traction and stability, resulting in an efficient, smooth, controlled ride that feels like floating over rough terrain.

And, instead of trying to squeeze everybody onto a single wheel size, Orbea offers Big Wheels Concept (BWC), which results in four frame sizes and two wheel sizes – Small and Medium frames with 27.5-inch wheels, and Small, Medium, Large, and X-Large frames with 29-inch wheels.
