Pictured here is the triathlon specific frameset that features a UCI-illegal fork. Framesets will be priced at $3,500.

The Ordu's stems use a Monolink style system that allows the rider to easily adjust the stem angle by just loosening a couple of bolts. The whole system is very robust looking but feels lightweight in hand. Photo: Logan VonBokel | VeloNews.com

The 2013 Ordu is both electronic and mechanical compatible. The guide behind the stem can be swapped out to work with either mechanical or electronic. The cables are fully internal and use Gore's sealed system. Photo: Logan VonBokel | VeloNews.com

Like the steer tube clamp, the seat clamp uses the Monolink clamp design. Though on the bike we saw, there was a non-Monolink ISM Adamo saddle mounted. Buyers wanting a very specific build will have the ability to do so through OrbeaÕs MyO online store. There will be a variety of bars, saddles, wheelsets, and drivetrains to choose from.

That kink on the underside of the top tube is for aesthetics as well as Òthe possibility of accessories in the future,Ó according to Warren. He would not get any more specific, but we would expect some type of hydration system for triathletes, indicative of SpecializedÕs system on the Shiv. Photo: Logan VonBokel | VeloNews.com

The bottom bracket cluster of the Ordu looks to have a lot going on, with a battery mount on the chain stay, V-brake posts, and a cable routing exiting and reentering the frame. Photo: Logan VonBokel | VeloNews.com
