I wanted to put my son Colton on a carbon bike and I had to do it on a budget. I purchased this Orca and completely went through it from top to bottom. I sized the cranks with Damon from Helium as well as the pedals and gearing. Put new tires and tubes on it as well as hand grips and seat. My buddies at Alpaca Racing hooked me up with a few odds and ends as well as answered numerous questions that I had along the way. My son is amped for 2026! Props to Colton’s brother Emmett for the photos @robichaud.photography ~Michael Robichaud
