Orbea Occam H30 FS Mountain Bike 2023

Orbea Occam H30 FS Mountain Bike 2023

The Orbea Occam H30 FS Mountain Bike combines quality Shimano Deore 12-speed components with an advanced aluminium frameset to deliver supreme on-trail performance. Lightweight, fast and deviously fun to ride across a range of terrains, the H30 is a perfect solution to the one-bike-only conundrum. Unique to Orbea, the aluminium frame offers similar performance to that found on their flagship carbon model, albeit with a slight weight penalty. The hydroformed construction is highly durable and features polished welds for smooth, sleek visuals. 

Geometry makes or breaks a bike, and with the Occam, Orbea has perfected the formula. The 66-degree head angle is slack yet reactive, while the 336mm bottom bracket height is low-slung to improve cornering performance. As part of the Pure Trail geometry design, these numbers add up to an exhilarating ride character when pointed down the trail without compromising the climbing ability to help you cruise your way up to the trailhead. 

The parts specification is practical, balancing cost with performance to leave you wanting little more without an obscene price tag. FOX suspension controls the 140mm of rear travel in the form of their Float DPS Performance rear shock and, combined with a 140mm travel Marzocchi Bomber Z2 fork, delivers supple performance and a low weight to carry pace on all grades of singletrack. The tubeless 29" wheels and Maxxis tyres are tubeless-ready for ease of conversion, and the in-house Orbea cockpit sees a wide handlebar and short stem for pinpoint control.
