Expirience with the Orbea MX 50 27.5

Ludwig Döhl With his 100 mm trail on the fork, the Racebike of Orbea is ready to roll when using it as a on sporty excursions. The short chainstays make the bike playful and more maneuverable in tighter corners. The upright seating position gives the MX 50 27.5 a comfortable character. Despite small weaknesses, above all, this argument is likely to convince: the Shimano brake will slow you down excellently. With the competitors you need deeper pockets for the same braking force. With 25 years warranty, you can not go wrong.
