Orbea WILD M20 Review

The Performance Line CX from Bosch shows impressively that they shouldn't be limited to DIY and household products. The Bosch motor takes away the fear of even the steepest ramps. The combination of a very well-rounded riding feeling and a dynamic power delivery characterises the Bosch Performance Line CX. This great combination mixed with lots of power, is something only a few other motors at Bosch's level can achieve. Thanks to the very good range, you should no longer have any range problems even on very long tours.

Carbon frames are rather the exception in the price range of about 7500€. With the carbon fibre chassis, Orbea thus sets clear accents compared to the aluminium competitors. Solid endurance qualities are shown by the chassis of medium quality. Especially on root-strewn trails, the low-quality chassis puts the rider in front of greater challenges than necessary. Especially for heavy riders, the Orbea brakes could be a problem. With four pistons they only decelerate averagely. At the drivetrain components and the rest of the parts, Orbea uses average parts. The moderate head tube angle provides a good compromise between stability and agility when going downhill. The reach is also right there in the middle ground. The low bottom bracket height will likely be a sticking point for trail riders, as it negatively affects handling.
