The gravel bike range produced by Orro covers a lot of bases and price points. The bikes are ideal for those wanting the flexibility to head off the beaten track, or stay on road, with a high quality, well specified UK brand bike.
Firstly, Orro a rare breed, there aren’t too many high quality bike brands based in the UK. Orro produce beautifully engineered bicycles. Inspired by nature, all Orro products are designed at their headquarters. They are based in Ditchling in the Sussex Downs National Park, an area of real outstanding natural beauty.
The Orro gravel bike range is engineered to provide the optimal level of performance and value at each specification level.
Terra C
The Orro Terra C range is characterised by the frame’s light and responsive ride qualities. Collaboration with the industry-leading British carbon producer, Sigmatex enabled the use of their SigmaST carbon in the Terra C. Geometry is well balanced, providing poise and composure for faster riding and descents, whilst still remaining comfortable for longer days in the saddle and efficient when climbing. The Terra C features a semi-integrated front end. The cables enter the frame via a cable box on the headset and run internally through the headtube, protecting them from the elements completely. This ensures the frame suffers no cable rub abrasion to the headtube when the handlebars are turned, and no interference with handlebar bags. The Terra C is available in a wide range of specification levels, depending on rider preferences and budget. Whether you choose Sram Rival, alternative levels of Shimano GRX, Sram AXS Wireless or Campagnolo Ekar 13 speed, you will have a solid, reliable bike, ready for your next adventure.
Terra Ti
The Terra Ti marries the renowned, sublimely smooth ride characteristics which high-end titanium tubing is famed for, with the same well- balanced geometry as the Terra C. The same semi-integrated cable routing as the Terra C, ensures clean looks and well protected cables and hoses. Extra flexibility is built-in to the Terra Ti with adjustable fork rake. Shorter 47mm rake allows faster handling for a more flick-able ride. Longer 52mm rake gives a more stable platform, ideal for a fully loaded bikepacking set-up or just more chilled-out gravel exploring. Shimano GRX 810 components provide a reliable, high performance controls and drive train. The solid yet relatively lightweight Fulcrum Rapid 5 DB wheelset, reinforces the Terra Ti appeal as a high performance, flexible gravel bike.
Terra X
The aluminium tubed Terra X features the same geometry as the Terra C but in a more value focussed package. Fully loaded for adventures, with bottle cage mounts in all the right places. There are plenty of mounting options for your next bike packing adventure, the Terra X is an excellent all-rounder. The frame features semi-internal cable routing, thru-axles and a tapered headtube – modern features that make this bike reliable and tough. The Terra X features a Shimano GRX400 gravel specific groupset and Fulcrum Rapid Red 900 wheelset, ensuring the parts are as tough as the frameset.
Terra S
The Terra S features the unique ride feel of a quality steel frameset, with modern gravel bike geometry and components. The solid yet sprightly and comfortable nature of slender steel frames has long been favoured by tourists, the Terra S has all the features needed by a great modern touring bike together with gravel bike geometry. Plentiful mounts mean that you will never be left without options for loading up and shipping out. In addition, mudguard and rack mounts further increase its all-season usability.
Terra G
Entry level aluminium has never looked quite so… Wow! The triple butted aluminium frame is finished in Vesuvius Silver giving premium looks to a solid, well specified entry level bike. The Terra G was Orro’s first gravel bike and matched rugged simplicity with functional performance. In this latest version, all the essential boxes are ticked with 35mm tyre clearance, 12mm thru axles and carbon forks. Shimano R7000 2X11 speed components, FSA Chainset, Fulcrum R900 wheelset and cable disc brakes complete a well specified, value-packed gravel bike.
