Orbea launched the new Orca last week and it’s making its top-flight racing debut under Ceratizit-WNT riders at the 2023 Tour de France Femmes. The new Orbea Orca prioritises climbing ability and handling prowess over out-and-out aero performance, in a move contrary to the popular one-bike-to-rule-them-all formula. The team has seen some success to date in the race, with French road time trial...

Caleb Ewan (Lotto-Dstny) will ride this prototype Ridley at the 2023 Tour de France. The bike appears to sit somewhere between the Helium climbing bike and the Noah aero bike, the Australian sprinter’s usual choice. Assuming it is marketed as an aero-optimised, do-it-all race bike, this new model fills a Specialized Tarmac SL7-shaped hole in Ridley’s lineup. An aero-ish frameset Though...

The 2023 Tour Down Under kicked off the WorldTour racing season last night with a prologue time trial. Given the impractical logistics and cost implications of shipping dedicated time trial bikes halfway around the world for a single, 5.5km stage, the race organisers decided to make it a road bike-only affair.

Built for the tarmac or the trail beyond, while road and gravel bikes share a lot in common, there are some more subtle differences that optimise them for different road and trail surfaces, as well as contrasting riding styles. These differences tend to exist on a spectrum, where road racing bikes are most dissimilar to burlier gravel bikes, and endurance road bikes and all-road bikes tend to...

The best titanium road bikes combine a weight that’s less than steel with strength that’s greater than aluminium, making titanium one of the best – and most luxurious – frame materials.
