Expirience with the Orbea OIZ M10

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 M10. 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 moderate 67 degree head tube angle ensures a balanced handling. If you want to get ahead efficiently and quickly, you will welcome the sporty riding position. All in all, in the on long tours with lots of trails category, you will hardly find a better overall package from parts and geometry. The guarantee of 25 years proves that Orbea puts a lot of trust in its products.
