Excellent review, and beautiful trails. Spain is a beautiful country. I was looking seriously at Kona, Giant and Orbea. This and several other reviews I watched on the Occam made the choice easy for me and I went with the H30. I am thoroughly impressed with Orbea from a quality and design perspective, as well as their pricing. Those things just clinched it in the end. I've never had more fun on the trails!!

By far the best review of this bike I've seen. Well done.

Thanks! Excellent, comprehensive review 👍🏻

Orbea is a very nice brand! My friend rides one enduro and i love it. Have fun with it. Ride On LfB

ooh the new occam looks good !! I myself have the occam tr top bike

Hmm, changed my mind again on which new bike to get! Looks just the job - great review

Really like this. Checking out the m30.

Nice review and very nice place! Any info about running a coil shock on Occam?

Will you review de 2020 giant stance? I would like to see if it can perform at that low pricepoint. Cheers

Just bought a new H30, for the price (and regardless of price, it rocks! Great value and I can upgrade to a beast later! Fox 36 I’m looking at you!

Hi Alberto. Do you find the H30 too heavy? Do you think it's a good allrounder? I'm coming from a Epic and looking for something more confortable.

@@MrAlpontino I think the H30 is a great bike, and actually find it to be the most "good for anything" bike out there, specially at that price. If you want an all rounder, I think nothing beats the h30, with the Ibis Ripley and Polygon t8 in a close second and 3rd (for the price). I don't find it heavy at all, and for flow trails and the occasional enduro Saturday is the perfect bike. Most people are riding over biked (and thus having less fun). It also has good pieces (like the derailleur) mixed with not so good, but in areas where you want to use and upgrade later anyhow (cassette and brakes, looking at you). All in all, couldn't be happier. If you think you are going to ride enduro more than once a week would recommend going for the 150mm upfront (with Orbea offers). Apart form that, it really is a the best no brainer all rounder. As Pinkbike said (accurately), its the most trail bike , trail bike.

Thanks Alberto!!!

I just demo'd this today! I agree, it is really composed on the descents. It also climbs well. The bike I normally ride is an Ibis Ripley. I wonder if you had a chance to compare it to a Ripley? In my opinion, I felt the Occam is more Stable, but think the Ripley pedals better overall.

I just bought the H20 and I wasn't feeling the tire selection. For SoCal I prefer the minion dhf in the front. The stock tire selection is of great quality but I didn't feel in control. Coming from a pike fork, I couldn't get a grasp of setting up the Fox 34 for a 200 lbs rider.

Do you suggest putting the fox36 150mm?

Can you please tell me where exactly to find that awesome trail? :)

Can i hit yump, will it survive like 4m drop,

Thanks, I ordered the Orbea Occam H20 (alu) version :)

@@Sammy1970 Congratulations my friend, you just made one of the best choices in you're life. The H10 is such a good bike for the pricepoint. Problems? Absolutely none, and trust me I ride my H20 hard. The bike is absolutely amazing, just got done going tubeless and I can't be happier. Suspensions working like a charm. You shouldn't worry, Orbea is a legitimate company and i'm 100% sure if u'll encounter any problem they will solve it for you, for free.

I want a double suspension bike that feels comfortable to ride on long distance travels (40kms +). Would this Occam 2020 fit that description, or I would be better served with the Orbea Occam TR from previous years? Thanks.

Depends, which style you are riding? For road / gravel you definitely don't need 140/140mm travel.

Occam or Jeffsey?

What size is your Occam in? Because I hesitate between M and L I am 1m70 but I am only 15 years old so I can still grow.

Arguably a good thing all around - if a two-bike quiver was what I needed, it would be one of these, and the Commencal for the big days.

Around the 7 minute mark when trying to show off the different bike colors the video is from the wrong direction. Video is being shot into the sun so the shady side of the bike is shown making it hard to see the colors.
