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 M11 AXS. 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. With its geometry, the Orbea OIZ M11 AXS is right in the middle between playfulness and high speed stability. The seating position is sporty. On the way to the summit, the Downcountry-Bike von Orbea lets it rip. With its 520 bandwidth on the gears and the overall athletic alignment, the on long tours in light terrain competitors got some catching up to do. The guarantee promise of 25 years ensures trust.
