So it's a torque limited full size motor with custom software and a small battery?
 
Wanted to say MEH but looks like it could be a great bike. The 34s would have to go straight away ;)
 
And it's a definite "trail" bike with that geo too, oh well. :confused:

Still, at least Orbea have opened the doors for other manufacturers to build lighter bikes in a similar vein without requiring custom hardware. Bring on the eDuro's...
 
2A charger, lucky it's a small battery... 21700 cells so should be able to accept a much higher charge rate.

Oh dear, I'm sounding a bit negative here...

Don't get me wrong, I think it's a good looking bike and a definite step in the right direction (less weight) but I'd be much more interested in a superlight 160/170 eeb. 4000m of climbing is great (presumably that's on both batteries) but only when paired with 4000m of interesting descending. I have no interest in 80KM XC rides.
 
At least the levo sl has some competition now.

Its not what I would be wanting in a bike, but it looks like a very good bike in its own right.
 
That's a looker. Anyone want a lightly crashed Stilus?

As I wrote to another post, if it ride as good as Occam, then it's good everywhere. Maybe not at DH trails :D
Guys here have lengthen Occam's front suspension to 160 and ride bike parks, enduro trails and xc
 
nice

Well I think I might have found my next bike, love the fact it comes with the EW-EN100 Junction A out the box. Wonder if you could mullet it.
 
Hmm UK site won't let you order one
 

I didnt get one yet, but heres the details!

Just FYI Rob, you can change the fork/shock/tire spec on the LTD build. That's what I did. Went with the 36 and the DPX2. I happen to like 760 bars and Rekons. ;-)
 
Agree with Rob about the tyres (UK wet terrain thing?), handlebar & dropper. But the bike looks very nice!

I assume the normal Shimano power modes of Eco, Trail & Turbo are still available?
 
One other comment: If the 60nm torque limit proves to be problematic, it's literally just a software/firmware tweak to change it. I'm not concerned.
