Orbea closes the gap.
First to the drive: The Orbea Wild FS relies on a Shimano E800 unit. The battery is located in the down tube and can be charged in the bike or externally, and the power source can be easily removed without tools. Instead of the bulky, fully integrated Shimano battery, the standard 504 Wh battery pack is used. This is inserted into the side of the down tube and a kind of flap then closes the down tube.
The suspension travel is 140 millimetres at the front and rear, the rear suspension bearings have been designed for durability and the bearings are large, which suits the higher system weight and the often rough riding style of motorized mountain bikes. The customer also has a choice of wheel sizes: The Wild FS is available with wheels with 29x2.4 inch rolling stock, or in Plus dimensions with 27.5x2.8 inches.
