Expirience with the Orbea OIZ H30

Ludwig Döhl The predecessor of this bike won the Cape Epic in 2022, but still had a weakness. The rear triangle was relatively soft. This criticism should be a thing of the past with the OIZ H30. A completely new frame with a more massive rocker-link should significantly increase the stiffness of the frame. On the trail, however, you will feel another groundbreaking innovation above all. Like the Swiss from Scott, the Basques from Orbea are now also saying goodbye to a racefully platform with 100 millimeters of suspension travel. It seems as if the 120 mm suspension travel on the fork also for cross country and marathon riders develop into the new standard. The former "Trail" version of the Oiz disappears with the already downhilly racefully approach completely from the model range. The trend towards more high speed stability geometries stops with Orbea. Good! Because with this balanced handling model, you are equipped for all situations on the trail. The seating position is sporty. Anyway: In the uphill, the Orbea lets the competitors look outdated. The guarantee promise of 25 years ensures trust.
