Orbea Carpe (2020)

On Dec 2021, I got sick with covid D. To forget all this suffering, I bought a few months used bike, an Orbea Carpe, year 2020.
Mechanical disc brakes, only 7gear cassette, kenda 700cX38 tires with heavy wheels and 42t crankset named orbea.

Nice looking bike. I like those blue wheels in the original pic.

How complicated were the upgrades? Bolt on or minor modifications involved?

I agree about the blue wheels, but they were very heavy! The upgrades were bolt on, no modifications needed.

In the background we can see the Palace of the Grand Master of the Knights of Rhodes, which is a medieval castle in the city of Rhodes, on the island of Rhodes in Greece. It is one of the few examples of Gothic Architecture in Greece. The site was previously a citadel of the Knights Hospitaller that functioned as a palace, headquarters, and fortress.
