The 2027 Wild LT is Orbea's ground-up rebuild of the Wild, and it's a proper statement bike. Out goes the Bosch CX, in comes DJI's flagship Avinox M2S — 150Nm and 1300W peak, fed by an 800Wh battery. It's a full 29er enduro rig with 170mm travel front and rear, built on Rallon-derived Concentric Boost split-pivot kinematics with a flip-chip and angle-adjust headset.

Geometry (slack setting, M):

Size	Reach	Stack	HA	SA	CS	WB
S	430mm	628mm	63.34°	77.5°	448mm	1230mm
M	455mm	637mm	63.34°	77.5°	448mm	1257mm
L	480mm	647mm	63.34°	77.5°	448mm	1289mm
XL	505mm	656mm	63.34°	77.5°	448mm	1318mm

The angle-adjust headset steepens things to 63.9° and nudges reach ~6mm longer if you want it.

Carbon trim ladder (OMR frame):

Trim	Price	Fork	Shock	Brakes
M20	£6,199	RockShox ZEB Base 170	Fox Float X Perf 205x65	Shimano MT420
M10	£7,479	Fox 38 Factory Grip X2	Fox Float X2 Factory	Shimano XT M8220
M-Team RS	£8,799	Fox 38 Factory Grip X2	Fox Float X2 Factory	SRAM Maven Silver
M-LTD RS	£11,879	Fox 38 Factory Grip X2	Fox Float X2 Factory	SRAM Maven Ultimate

If the carbon prices make your eyes water, there's the Wild LT Hydro — identical geometry, kinematics and Avinox drive in a hydroformed alloy frame, starting at £4,899 (H20), up through H10 at £6,199 and H-Team at £6,999. Same ride, a little more weight, a lot less money.

Orbea pitched this squarely at performance-focused gravity riders: low weight, low centre of gravity, and the most thoroughly integrated electronics package on any e-bike right now. The Avinox motor's reactivity and traction control are the headline draws over the old Bosch platform.

Worth a read for real ownership impressions — the owners' thread is busy:

Orbea has lifted the covers on the new 2027 Wild LT, and this is a fairly major shift for the Wild platform.

But the bigger story is probably what Orbea is trying to do with the bike as a whole. This is not just a motor swap into the existing Wild. Orbea is positioning the Wild LT as a proper long-travel, gravity-focused eMTB, taking influence from the Rallon and Rallon DH projects while moving the Wild platform into a more aggressive space.

All the Wild LT models listed in the 2027 range use the DJI Avinox M2S motor system. 1300w peak, 150Nm peak torque. And Orbea's RS tune on the...

What's your shortlist — carbon vs Hydro, or comparing it against something else? Happy to dig into whichever angle matters to you.
