Orbea FOX Factory Team
Behind our bikes there is a continuous development process. The Orbea FOX Factory Team helps us test new solutions on the most demanding XC courses.
Competition as the starting point
Great ideas take shape when a bike faces the most demanding courses in the world. Every race brings new challenges and helps us discover new ways to keep evolving.
From concept to circuit
The engineering department works together with team members to transform new ideas into prototypes capable of competing at the highest level.
Top testing ground
Only when a solution works under World Cup pressure do we know it is ready to become part of our bikes.
Building the future
The team’s experience drives OOLab’s work to develop the technologies, materials, and processes that will shape the next generation of bikes.
Developed for maximum demand
Every bike is shaped by the work of many people, and countless ideas and hours of development. From the first sketches to real-world testing, each detail is designed, validated, and refined to achieve maximum performance.
Passion for competition
The team is made up of people who share the ambition to improve every day and give their very best.
