Expirience with the Orbea LAUFEY H-LTD

Ludwig Döhl If you like a lively bike, you should take the All Mountain von Orbea into consideration. With its geometry, the Orbea is right in the middle between playfulness and high speed stability. The relatively high front allows you to sit upright in the saddle. On climbs, other bikes in the under 3000 Euro present a little better performance than the Orbea. Trail lovers should nevertheless be convinced by this argument: in the downhill, the coherent geometry ensures you´ll have a wide smile in your face. We like: 25 years warranty on the frame!
