Preordered the 2018 Orbea OIZ 29 to replace my hardtail for regular local bimbles on XC routes.

Probably a great pairing of bikes
They really wanted to get a bottle mount on that yellow Santa Cruz.
Are they back in fashion?
Those Santa Cruz bikes are not pretty, I saw your new bike in the other post Mike, much nicer.

Although despite saying on here i would buy one, its been (correctly) pointed out to me i wont be £3800 faster than my current 2014 version, HA "corrected" with 120mm forks.

Very happy with my 2016 Occam AM but these look lovely! The 29er TR in particular.

He started it.
Those Orbeas are very nice.
29er Rallon to replace my awesome 650b Rallon

Lovely
Orbea have really upped their game.
The swing links in those Santa Cruzes look ungainly.
Well I'm definitely not buying one, but this is closest to my desired geometry...

Those colours though, what were they thinking?
Intrigued to try this after seeing the promo vid...

Similar pairing to mikewsmith for me, except I'd choose a tallboy in the new mango colour instead of the Hightower LT

If I'm trying, you're succeeding. Now stop being a child and get back in your box.
The Orbeas [i]are[/i] very nice. Not a big enough change to tempt me off my 2017 Occam AM though. Nice of Specialized to copy the suspension/rear triangle design for the new Epic too.
