Expirience with the Orbea MX 40 27.5

Ludwig Döhl The 100 mm trail on the fork qualify the Orbea MX 40 27.5 for in light terrain use. short chainstays and a moderate reach make the handling pleasantly playful. The combination of high stack and short top tube makes the riding position pleasantly comfortable. But one should not underestimate that wheels are extremely important for the riding experience on the trail. Orbea knows this and installed higher quality than the competitors at the price of 649 Euro . With 25 years warranty, you can not go wrong.
