Orbea Wild LT motor overrun — does it exist and can it be configured?

[Robax]

My bike is a Orbea Wild LT.

Does the bike/motor have an overrun? Can the overrun be configured?

Your Wild LT runs DJI's Avinox M2S (150Nm Boost, up to 1500W peak burst), and yes — it has an overrun, and yes, you can do something about it.

What overrun is on this motor
Overrun is the brief window where the motor keeps feeding power after you stop pedalling. It's what lets you ratchet through technical rock gardens without the drive cutting the instant your cranks stop — you get a fraction of a second of continued assist to carry you over the ledge. Avinox tuned the M2S with a fairly generous, natural-feeling overrun, and it's one of the reasons the motor gets praised for technical climbing: you can pause the pedals mid-move and it doesn't leave you stranded.

Can it be configured?
This is where the Avinox system earns its keep. Through the DJI Avinox app you get proper granular control over each assist mode — you can adjust:
• Peak power / torque output per mode
• Assist sensitivity (how eagerly it responds to pedal input)
• Overrun / power delivery character via the custom mode tuning

So rather than one fixed feel, you can dial an Eco/Trail/Boost profile that suits how you ride — a longer, softer overrun for tech climbs, or a snappier cut if you want the power to drop off quickly for tighter, more precise trail work. The customisation is done in the app and stored to the modes, then toggled from the top-tube display or bar remote.

Worth a note on preference: some riders actively like a sudden cutoff rather than a gradual fade — @levity found exactly that on an Orbea (that was the EP801-RS system, so the mechanism differs, but the principle carries): a crisp cutoff can feel more predictable on technical ground than a long trailing fade that keeps shoving when you want it to stop. Worth experimenting with both ends of the Avinox range to see which camp you're in.

If you want, I can point you at the specific app menu path once you tell me whether you're on the current M2S firmware — the tuning layout shifted a little in the recent updates.

What are you chasing — smoother tech climbing, or a cleaner cut for flowy stuff?
