In our Disusbi innovation project we are in a stage where we are subjecting to various models in the trail bike category to extensive testing to analyze the performance of their suspensions as well as their pedaling efficiency. How are we carrying all this out? You can’t miss what’s coming next. We never stop innovating!

Have you ever thought what happens in our mountain bike when pedaling? Do you know how pedaling forces and pressure on the saddle and handlebar affect in performance? At Advanced Dynamics we never stop innovating. Our next step is to bring us into a world unknown to many, and thanks to the excellent work of CEIT (Centre for Studies and Technical Research of Gipuzkoa) we have sensorized an Orbea Occam to put figures through your feelings.

Advanced Dynamics succeeds again. The most complete software ever created for the development of full-suspension bikes which sees the cyclist and his own influence on the performance of the mountain bike as well as riding dynamic variables themselves, becomes key to the creation of this new Occam 29. Following the introduction of the Occam with 26 inch wheels in 2012, unarguably the leader in Trail cathegory, here it is the new Occam 29. A striking aesthetics, state-of-the-art finishes and performance that will leave no one indifferent. The best pedaling efficiency, greater control and stability of larger diameter wheels come together in this new model that becomes the perfect bike and new benchmark in the long distance XC-Trail segment.

What is Advanced Dynamics? What is this blog about? What am I expected to find here? If you’re acquainted with Orbea’s full suspension bikes, you must be familiar with the term ‘Advanced Dynamics.’ Our Rallon and Occam models were developed out of the Advanced Dynamics Program. Their innovative rear suspension systems were fully optimized to deliver the best performance in this sector. So now what? No, we’re not nuts. This is Orbea’s first blogging experience on the study and analysis of full suspension bikes. Here we want to show you what we do and how we do it. We want to share what we’ve learned with you, and we want you to be part of this. If you like full suspension bikes and how they work, this is the right place for you. Welcome!
