Orbea Occam Carbon
Orbea Occam Carbon Description
The Orbea Occam Carbon can be thought of as a cross between their World Cup-proven cross country race machine, the Alma, and their all-mountain capable enduro bike, the Rallon. It looks the part, and in fact it borrows technology, style, and design concepts from both. The carbon fiber Occam even fills a performance gap between the two. However, as its own bike, its made to compete with the best of the new breed of super trail bikes on the market. To underscore that point, the Occam weighs in at less than five pounds, yet it has a comfortable and capable 4.84 (123mm) of rear wheel travel.Orbea molds the Occam front triangle and swingarm as one piece with their Silver grade carbon fiber. This results in structures with uninterrupted fibers and no joints, and this is part of why Orbea can build the Occam so light, even though its intended for racing and hard trail riding. The Silver carbon offers a just-right blend of light weight, impact resistance, and toughness. The Occam came to fruition thanks to Orbeas Advanced Dynamics modeling and research. One key element was that they designed the bike with the rider in mind, and their modeling and testing always included a virtual rider to exert forces on the frame the way you would as you ride the bike over all types of terrain. The design process was completed with mountains of feedback from riders aboard functional prototypes. The final result is a bike thats perfect for marathon racing. By saying that, wed like to point out that marathon racing embodies all that we see as good in the Occam. It responds to furious pedaling efforts with sheer acceleration. Twists of the bars send steering input to the front wheel without hesitation. It climbs with near-hardtail-like efficiency without the strength-sapping effect of absorbing bumps with your legs and back. The bike does this for you, even as you pedal.
