Pierre-Charles didn't come to cycling through racing. His background was in fine art, and it was through places like Schicke Mütze in Düsseldorf that he found a different kind of creative community. People making things, sharing ideas, organising rides. And occasionally coming up with slightly…

At Orbea, we believe in the power of bicycles. However even for us, commuting by bike isn't always the obvious choice. We're based in a valley surrounded by mountains, and many of us live a notable distance from work. Geography, everyday routines and established habits all shape the way we move…

The Grain. Out now. For Pierre-Charles Flipo and Carsten, connecting Düsseldorf and Dijon by bike became an 860 km gravel adventure, following a shared mustard-making tradition that goes back centuries. But somewhere between the two cities, the story grew beyond its original idea. New faces…

The YES Machine. Racing runs through Wild LT's DNA, shared with its cousin, Rallon. That shows on every ride, unlocking new levels of performance with planted handling, terrain taming suspension and a low center of gravity. Discover all about Wild on our website. #OrbeaMTB #OrbeaWild LT

It started with a pretty unusual question. What do Düsseldorf and Dijon have in common? Well, more than you might think. And apparently, enough to make someone ride 860 kilometres between them. The Grain. A new Pachamama story, coming soon. #PCHMM

Roc d’Azur was about creating, together. Our booth became a design lab. Hands on. Full freedom. Riders shaping their own vision from scratch. Others charge for individuality. We make it our standard. Real customization: your colors, your components, at no extra cost. #MyOrbea #DrawTheLine

Beyond the bikes, it's always about the people. A few intense days in Fréjus surrounded by those who live and breathe cycling. Roc d'Azur was never just about displaying our range. From hands-on customisation sessions at the stand to exchanging ideas with our crew, thank you to everyone who spent…

Shifting, from the rider’s point of view. What does Simon look for when racing at full gas? Speed, precision and confidence in every shift. Simon talks us through what the Shimano XTR Di2 brings when every second counts. Straight from the rider. #OrbeaFactoryTeam #OrbeaMTB #ShimanoXTR

One last lap for a legend. Thank you for everything you’ve given to this sport, Bec. #OrbeaFactoryTeam #OrbeaMTB

Here’s to our global dealer network and the teams that make it all happen! Over 35 events across the globe during last months brought together around 1,000 independent dealers and our crew to showcase our latest innovations. Real progress comes from true, independent partnerships and standing…

Last stop: Lake Placid. The Orbea Oiz is here and ready for one final World Cup of the season. Let’s go racing. #OrbeaFactoryTeam #OrbeaMTB #OrbeaOiz

Starting the week in Lake Placid. The mechanics went out for a ride, a few of the riders joined in and the rain decided to come along too. Just a little spin around our new home for the week. #OrbeaFactoryTeam #OrbeaMTB #OrbeaOiz

The setup they want with the most capable bike. Forget the spec sheet. We asked Sánchez Mantecón and Izan Edo to pick the three things that matter most on their Orbea Orca Aero when it’s time to race. Position. Wheels. Tyres. Cockpit. Gearing. Every choice has a reason and at this level, every…

The Orbea Factory Team is in the USA for the final two World Cups of the season. But this week has been about much more than racing. We had the chance to connect with the incredible communities around our dealers Contender Bicycles and The Bikers Edge. Their passion and dedication to bringing…

Your fastest position means nothing if you can’t hold it. Fresh legs are one thing. Staying aero when the kilometres, watts and fatigue start adding up is another. For Sánchez Mantecón and Izan Edo, stability and confidence on the bike aren’t just about handling. They help them stay where they…

More watts don’t always mean more speed. At this level, what matters is how much speed you can get from every watt you produce. In Sierra Nevada, @sanchezmantecon and @izan_tri put that idea into their own words: aerodynamic improvement thanks to a more stable rider position gives the ability to…

What a racing weekend at Utah! Next stop: Lake Placid. #OrbeaMTB

Happy to have you back with us, Jenn! #OrbeaFactoryTeam

Quiet now. Not for long. Ready for the last chapter of the season. #OrbeaOiz #OrbeaFactoryTea,

From one ride to the next. Getting the Oiz ready as new for the next challenges. #OrbeaFactoryTeam

Spotted at Sea Otter. We took a quick look at what changed, what got faster and the thinking behind the new generation of the road range. Thanks for visiting us! #Orbea #OrbeaRoad #OrbeaOrcaAero

Girona was all about cycling this weekend. Sea Otter Europe brought together riders, brands, dealers and cycling fans from across Europe for a few days full of bikes, conversations and good moments. For us, it was a chance to meet people face to face, showcase what’s new and, most importantly…

Verlas es una cosa. Probarlas, otra. Durante estos días en Sea Otter Europe, los usuarios han tenido la oportunidad de probar sobre el terreno la nueva Wild LT y la Oiz, descubrir de primera mano cómo se sienten y vivir la experiencia de ponerlas a prueba. Gracias a todos los que os habéis pasado…

It started during lockdown with a circle drawn across the Netherlands. Borders were closed, so @quindaverheul_ gave herself one rule: follow that shape as closely as possible and let it decide the journey. Years later, she’s making the circle a little bigger. 5,759 kilometres. 61,090 metres of…

Pisgah Magic, the new episode of Trail Tales OUT NOW! Some projects are built from scratch. Others restore the value of what has already been created. After Hurricane Helene, Pisgah’s community chose to rebuild, supported by Orbea Foundation. Watch the new Trail Tales episode on our Youtube…

Every trail has a story. This thursday, we discover what makes Pisgah unique. Thursday. 4PM CEST. #TrailTales

Being present at events like the International Bike Festival is never just about showcasing bikes. The reason for showing up is to connect, share stories, and keep our bond with the community alive. Whether the mechanics are fine-tuning demo setups or the team is answering questions at the stand…

Misano, siete veloci, ragazzi. The energy at the International Bike Festival is unmatched. Watching you push the new Orbea Orca Aero to its absolute limits around the Misano circuit reminds us exactly why we design these bikes. From our mechanics dialing in your precise setup in the paddock to the…

What does faster actually feel like? After the first week of racing in @lavuelta with the new #OrbeaOrcaAero, Jarno has the answer. Speed, stability, responsiveness, not as numbers on a screen, but as something you feel when the race is on. Straight from the rider. Straight from the race. #Orbea…

Nothing but good lines, speed and fun on the bike. Ryder putting the #OrbeaRallon through its paces, sending it down the trails and making every line count. Can you guess where these trails are? #OrbeaMTB
