Summary

The Orbea Occam is a versatile trail bike praised for its modern geometry, effective suspension, and customizable options through Orbea's MyO program. It excels in smoothing trail chatter and climbing efficiently, though some builds may lack components suited for aggressive trail riding. The bike's handling is precise, making it a favorite for long days in the saddle, despite some noting its suspension could be more progressive for technical descents.

Orbea Occam M-LTD on test – a mountain bike in its truest form?

Feb 2020 · Christoph Bayer

The Orbea Occam M-LTD looks almost too good to be true. Balanced geometry meets high-end componentry, custom paint jobs and a very low weight. Is the Occam the dream of every trail rider or does the bike have a catch? Click here for an overview of the best trail bike in test. You want it, […]

Highs
  • Comfortable and efficient climber

  • Custom paintwork at no extra charge

  • High-end spec at a fair price

Lows
  • Stiff and nervous on the descents

  • Dropper post, grips and rear tire are a flop

  • Water bottle only accessible from the left
