Summary
The Orbea Oiz trail bike is praised for its lightweight design, efficient pedaling, and modern geometry that enhances both climbing and descending capabilities. Its suspension performance is noted for being plush and deep-feeling, offering excellent grip and control on rough terrain. However, some reviews mention issues with internal cable routing and a firmer suspension feel on square edge hits.
Lightweight and efficient pedaling
Modern geometry for improved descending
Plush and deep-feeling suspension
Good value for money in the lineup
Customization options under the MyO program
Internal cable routing through the headset
Firmer suspension feel on square edge hits
Rear-end tends to skip under braking
Chain slap noise due to minimal chainstay protection
The 2023 Orbea Oiz still manages to weigh in under 10kg, all while improving stiffness to promote climbing efficiency so you can stay on the gas for longer.
BikerumorThis bike absolutely rips up technical XC trails, offering a plusher ride with more grip over rough terrain.
Flow Mountain BikeThe Orbea Oiz M21 is a fast and capable cross-country bike with a high-quality OMR carbon frame and a suspension platform matched to the Squidlock remote that helps keep things firm when needed and climbing.

The 2027 Orbea Oiz is a race bike that seems just as much at home on all-day trail rides, making it both fun and fast.
Balanced geometry and weight distribution enhance climbing and descending.
Frame is stiff and planted, inspiring confidence in rough terrain.
Custom MyO program offers extensive build options including suspension, tires, drivetrain, brakes, paint.
Fits two water bottles on all sizes.
Tinted clear coat shows carbon weave.
Easy to carry cyclocross-style.
Pedal-induced movement noticeable with suspension open; racers will want lockout.
Flight Attendant adds cost and extra batteries.
Squidlock remote lever position can be awkward and rub thumb.
Fox suspension preferred over Flight Attendant for all-day ride quality.

A little lighter, a little stiffer - the new Oiz is aimed squarely at the cross-country crowd.
30% weight savings on linkage
Frame weight 1480g without shock
Improved stiffness through revised top tube and linkage
Effective suspension design for pedaling efficiency
Two water bottle mounts
SquidLock remote with dropper and suspension mode
Thru-headset cable routing is annoying
Frame not as light as Specialized Epic 9

The Orbea Oiz M21 might be the brand’s entry-level carbon cross-country bike, but it’s far from basic. With impressive performance and solid componentry, it’s a capable machine for riders looking to push their limits. Some quirks and areas would welcome improvements, but the Oiz M21 still delivers a fast and efficient ride, both uphill and down. Rockrider RACE 900S mountain bike review Canyon Lux Trail CFR review Trek Top Fuel 8 Gen 4 mountain bike review The Oiz lineup features 120mm of travel and comes in alloy and carbon framesets.

Featuring a brand new frame and updated geometry for 2023, the Orbea Oiz is a lightweight XC bike that's optimised around 120mm of travel.
Lightweight, elegant full carbon frame
Plush & deep-feeling suspension
Fantastic geometry boosts descending capability
Squidlock delivers useful on-the-fly adaptability
Headset cable routing
Not the quietest bike
Heavy & sluggish dropper post
Limited clearance for 2nd bottle

Add extra travel to longer geometry and you've got a recipe for downhill success. Orbea has avoided compromising uphill performance, too
Extra travel gives you a get out of jail free card
Geometry is at the forefront of XC design
Fast, up and down
Customisable spec and paint are nice options to have
Squidlock is a little messy on the bars
Super-racey rubber doesn't always inspire confidence
