That's the problem, I have a thing against Treks/Giants/Specializeds

Not saying they're bad, just a bit "bland". Well that's my opinion.

It's best viewed in wide-o-rama :D

No seriously I don't know how to reduce it (other than save it onto my own photo host).

So i've replaced it with a link ...

I agree. Trek, Giants and Specializeds are alright and no doubt perfectly good bikes and usually good value but when your splashing out over one and a half grand the more discerning cyclist would no doubt prefer something a little more esoteric and less run of the mill, a frame lovingly handmade by the Innuit or some other indiginous peoples perhaps.
I was in cycles dauphin the other day, looking to get something for next spring around the 1500 ish price. What are Orbeas like? anything else good or not at this price.
