View Full Version : Anyone work at an Orbea dealer? Avant spec question (paging Heisenberg)

I'm browsing the Avant range as the geo on the largest size would work well for me (somewhat rare when you're 6'5" and all leg) and the frame doesn't have any "endurance bike" nonsense like elastomers or a 71 degree head angle. I'm looking at the rim brake options. It looks like the only major difference between the M20 and M20i is that the M20 has mechanical Ultegra shifters and derailleurs, while the M20i has di2 Ultegra shifters and derailleurs. I guess they use a different handlebar and seatpost too, but still, my main question is if the spec is correct on the website and the Avant M20 and M20i really use the same frame. If they do, the $2200 M20 seems like a really good deal.

Bump because it's 5pm on the west coast which seems to have more orbea dealers...

Orbea USA is very helpful if you can't find the answer give them a call.
