Orbea Laufey H10

The Orbea Laufey H10 represents a deliberate choice, not a compromise. Riding this hardtail means committing to squeezing every last drop of fun from each trail session, whether that's your first mountain bike experience or another weapon in an established collection. With low-slung, slack geometry, substantial fork travel, and clever frame design that absorbs trail buzz while taking the sting out of bigger impacts, the Laufey refuses categorization and remains ready for good times in Lycra or jeans.

Built around the Orbea Laufey Hydro triple-butted aluminum frame, this advanced construction adds strength to high-stress weld areas while saving weight elsewhere, enabling fine-tuned ride quality characteristics. The magic handling and composure when terrain gets gnarly comes from precision stiffness tuning—the frame from headtube to bottom bracket delivers stiffness for accuracy and pedaling efficiency, while the Powerspine structure allows freedom to design the rear triangle and top tube for maximum vertical compliance. Controlled flex carefully added into the top tube and seat stays reduces unwanted vibrations and lessens impact effects without sacrificing precision.

The trail-ready geometry combines slack angles with Steep 'n' Deep design that maximizes maneuverability through uninterrupted, short, straight seat tube allowing full insertion of long-travel dropper posts across all sizes. The sloping top tube works with this design, providing abundant space to maximize playfulness and body movement during descents. The Fox 34 Float AWL Sport fork with 140mm travel matches the Laufey's fun-loving nature, enabling aggressive riding even when conditions get rough, while carefully shaped chainstays offer generous clearance for burly 2.6" tires.

Shimano SLX Shadow Plus 12-speed drivetrain delivers dependable shifting for trail demands, while alloy tubeless-ready 29" wheels wrapped in Maxxis Dissector 2.60" Exo tires provide traction and confidence across technical terrain. Practical features include Lockr downtube storage with OC bag, internal cable routing through downtube and chainstays, factory-fitted vinyl downtube protection, and custom rubber chainstay bumpers for noise reduction.

Perfect for riders seeking a bombproof hardtail built to survive abuse while delivering that magic feel, the Laufey H10 inspires confidence in newer riders while providing enough capability for experienced shredders to venture where others only go with full suspension.
