Orbea presents the new bikes of Lotto 2025 and they are already for sale
Second season for Orbea as the bicycle provider for the Belgian team Lotto, for which the Basque brand has prepared an attractive decoration in which the corporate red of the team gains even more prominence while playing with gradients to reveal the carbon that shapes the Orca, Orca Aero, and Ordu time trial bikes that the cyclists will have at their disposal.
Orbea and Lotto facing a new cycling season
On January 3, the Lotto team was officially presented, one of the best teams in the second category of cycling that, in 2025, starts in an unbeatable position to regain the World Tour license they lost two years ago. To achieve this, they will once again have the invaluable company of Orbea, which will provide them with the best bikes from their catalog: the Orca and Orca Aero for daily use and their Ordu model for time trial stages.
The new design of the bikes is in line with the new kit that the Lotto cyclists will wear, with Lotto remaining as the sole main sponsor after the end of the sponsorship by Dstny that had been accompanying them in the last two seasons. A design in which the characteristic red of the Belgians mixes with the carbon patterns of the frames.

This decoration has already been included in their catalog, so if you wish, you can have an Orbea Orca practically identical to the one used by the Lotto cyclists, a result of the close collaboration between Orbea and the team, who continuously work to evolve the equipment through the Orbea Optimization Lab to achieve the best performance in competition.
The Orbea Orca from Lotto, like the ones we can purchase, will be equipped with Shimano Dura-Ace Di2 except for the cranks, provided by FSA, a brand that has traditionally been collaborating with Orbea and also provides the integrated handlebar and stem set, in this case, signed by Vision, the aerodynamic components division of the Italians. The saddle is supplied by the Italian brand Selle Italia.
The cyclists will guide their training using Power2Max power meters that integrate perfectly with the FSA cranks. The wheels mounted by the team are the same as those found on the standard bike, using Orbea's Oquo wheels fitted with Vittoria tires.
