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 offers a supple ride quality, though some builds may not suit aggressive trail riding. The bike is frequently compared to the Specialized Stumpjumper and Santa Cruz Bronson for its balanced performance.

Pros
  • Modern geometry and effective suspension

  • Customizable through Orbea's MyO program

  • Supple ride quality smoothing trail chatter

  • Excellent handling and climbing efficiency

  • Versatile for mixed terrain with lengthy climbs and fast descents

Cons
  • Some builds may not suit aggressive trail riding

  • Fox 32 fork and narrow rims not ideal for all trail conditions

  • Steeper head angle may not suit those preferring slacker angles for descents

Key Quotes
Despite Orbea’s literal history in making weapons, I didn’t expect its Occam TR to be such a figurative one.
BIKE Magazine logoBIKE Magazine
The Occam TR’s rear suspension does a superb job of smoothing trail chatter without any detectable pedal feedback.
BIKE Magazine logoBIKE Magazine
Orbea has upped its trail bike game significantly with the Occam.
VeloNews logoVeloNews
The Orbea Occam TR is a trail bike that clearly has its DNA in XC bikes, making it an ideal partner for long days in the saddle where covering ground is as important as tackling the descents.

The most striking feature of the new Occam is the asymmetrical frame design.

Orbea Occam TR H10 review

Apr 2018 · Tom Marvin

Trail flyer with a focus on big days in big hills. Buy if you want a comfortable bike for getting out in to the mountains

Highs
  • Efficient platform for logging miles, customisable spec at point of purchase, web pricing, local bike shop convenience

Lows
  • Rear suspension will need volume spacers for more aggressive or heavier riders, tyres aren’t best suited to UK conditions

Review: Orbea Occam Trail was not what I was expecting... but probably should have

Mar 2017 · Trey Richardson

I won’t lie… I didn’t groove with this bike during the first few rides. I read on paper what it was, calculated what I should expect based on decades of perspective gained from riding an endless number of bikes, and then I for some reason inferred that this was going to be similar to other …

Flow's First Bite: Orbea Occam TR M30

Jun 2016

In the case of Orbea, we’re sure they regret some of their early attempts at dual suspension mountain bikes. Their hardtails have always been tidy, but their past holds some rather nervous, floppy duallies, clearly built with a roadie at the design helm. But full credit to this Basque brand, they’ve completely flipped that situation, and …

Highs
  • Frame looks tough, stiff and well finished.

  • Modern geometry, short out back, long up front.

Lows
  • 32mm fork.

  • Crying out for a dropper post at this price.
