Scott Addict RC
Climbers and racers who want Scott without Foil's deep aero.
Scott's lightweight race bike: slim, syncros-integrated on high kits, and a fit that is race-low. Foil is the aero sibling.

Racers who like Cannondale's handling. Synapse is the taller sibling; SuperX is the CX/gravel race cousin.
The third-generation EVO: dropped seatstays and truncated-airfoil tubes turned Cannondale's climbing bike into an aero all-rounder with room for 30 mm tires. Lively rather than deep-aero.
Racers who want a climbing Orbea. Orca Aero is the wind-cheating sibling.
Orbea's lightweight race bike, OMX carbon on high kits, and a fit that is race-low without S5 drama. OMX vs OMR changes weight more than geometry.

Orbea has dropped many of the aero optimisations of the previous Orca, while it has unified the geometry across the OMX and OMR-tier frames.
Orbea says, “the Orca is around 3W faster than an aero bike, for an average rider, on a 5% slope, and around 6W faster on a 10% slope.” The Orca OMX has claimed ...
