I hope Invisiframe or Ridewrap will have their protection kits ready soon to protect that precious "Royal Plum" on my Wild down to the last millimeter.

Looks so sick! This Thursday the 18th I'll finally be able to see a Wild M20 in that color in person!

Ridewrap already has the kits in stock. Have been available for a week or two now.
 
I think you guys are missing the point to some extent and falling into the power figures propaganda trap. Orbea haven't tried to limit the performance on the Avinox motor, the easy thing for them to do would have been to just slap the standard Avinox motor in and call it good but they've tried to improve the usable power of the motor with the RS software. From what I've heard through the trade the RS Avinox rides better in the real world than the standard DJI tune does. I've not ridden it yet but maybe wait and see what all the journos (who have already ridden the new bike) say about it before condemning Orbea based on paper specs.
Ya know how people are concerned about loosing trail access due to power/speed even though it hasn’t happened yet? Thats how I’m concerned about Orbea handicapping their Avinox.

I’m cautiously optimistic that Orbea won’t sabotage the new Wild. We’ll see.

I hadn't checked because I thought they weren't available yet.

If they are, I'll definitely buy the frame and fork kits now so I can install them as soon as my bike arrives and ride without worry!

I also hope it's easy to install; it'll be my first time. Up until now, I've used universal kits from Dyedbro.
 
This is getting very interesting and I hope availability is not an issue.
Unfortunately I think they are going to be quite hard to get hold of (initially at least). It sounds like DJI haven't got close to the scale of production of the Avinox system that they promised so all manufacturers that are using it are struggling to get hold of them for now. It'll hopefully be less of an issue as time goes on and DJI get their shit together.
Orbea told us that they'll be limiting the number of Wilds that individual shops can order so that there will be a better spread of bikes available in different places, not sure how long that policy will last though.

I’m pretty sure Orbea isn’t turning away any orders, but they will allocate the supply.

Whenever I’ve been managing a similar situation (in consumer electronics industry), dealers who ordered say 12 units might get 4; while dealers to ordered say 6 might get 2 from the initial shipments. Dealers who show more commitment rightfully earn additional allocations.

Often dealer allocations would be shaped by how supportive a dealer is generally. If I had a dealer who helped us move a bunch of Bosch Wilds sure as hell would earn more Avinox Wild allocations than a dealer who didn’t.

In my experience initial allocations, if not following allocations; are handled more like an art than a formulaic science. Eventually you will shift to first-in-first-out order processing; that’s exactly why confident dealers order say, 12 units when they’ll only get 4 initially. They want their backorders to be the oldest in the queue.

FYI - my dealer told me that all of the Orbea's are getting a 5% tarrif tacked on in the US. :(

i better don't comment on that. But i wish you good luck in getting rid of the idiots in charge...

@michel uit berg can you make a foto of the Hole in the Frame for cabel routing ? Is it for cable routing ?
I would prefer to put the brake hose through this hole and not the steering braket.

You can choose cable routing (headset or frame) so yes, it has holes (one in each side as always) in the frame

The kit that can be ordered on RideWrap is definitely the one for the new Wild? I tried to do the Checkout and in the details it tells me that it is for model 2025/2027🤷🏻‍♂️

It's important to note that the Wild with the Bosch motor will continue to be sold as the ST model, while the Wild with the Avinox motor will be the LT. Obviously, the protection kit for both models should be different given the different frame diameters.

I would bet this kit is for the ST Bosch motorized version

The Bosch motor version is called TR not ST (they thought that ST implied not as good as LT so they changed the name to TR signifying Trail). It'll be 150/150mm travel and is the bike that they think will suit most riders. Maybe that's another reason for the limited numbers of the LT version (although I suspect lack of availability of Avinox motors is the real reason).

Will the Bosch version keep the current frame or will it get a redesign? I think the current version is still stuck with the 750wh battery?
 
Rumors, rumors...

This week i was riding with some Orbea team members here in the basque country and had the opportunity to see a prototype.
Nobody at orbea said anything about the new bikes not any single answer to inquiries.

Forget the internet noise, and people looking for minutes of digital glory

Let te time roll, I am sure that Orbea is still a great bike manufacturer with good projects not just a motor integrator

I'm not sure to be honest. The presentation that I attended was skewed towards the LT, the TR version was mentioned and there was a video presentation about it but not a huge amount of info about it. There also wasn't an actual TR there to look at (whereas we got to see an LT in the flesh). My educated guess is that the TR will retain the frame from the current Wild, it would make sense as a way to use up existing stock without the need to discount in the short term.

Should we start a New Orbea Rise Rumors Thread, maybe there we´ll be save from another Power/Restrictions/The good, the bad & the ugly discussion 🤪
