Haha. It’s not that wingspan is supposed to be longer, it’s just how the average male is proportioned…..and probably something that’s taken into account by the frame builders. Have you tried a high stack, short reach bike? Cheers

Hey Anyone with short arms for their height find this to be a bettter set-up than longer lower slacker?? At 172cm tall and a short wingspan of 156 (the average wingspan is slightly longer than height) I’ve just shortend my stem from 50-35mm and increased the height in my bar from 20-60mm and...

I’m lucky the Euros are on…

It does take even more muscle to thrown around and is even more reluctant to leave the ground. It’s still a magic DH machine but I’d recommend getting an extra internal frame battery to reduce the weight and stashing it somewhere if you’re just shuttling. I’m only a novice/intermediate rider by...

I got the H10. I need to say that I’m no expert in sizing and only an intermediate (at best) rider. Also that I have the seat slammed all the way back to achieve the most efficient pedalling position (obviously has no bearing whilst out of the saddle decending but worth bearing in mind for...

Hey. Standover wise, I’ve got just enough room and seat wise, I’ve got it pushed in pretty much all the way so it’s definitely the right size in that department. Reach wise is open to interpretation. If you’d like a shorter stem for quicker steering than the stock 50mm you’d probably want a L...

I totally agree and I’ve been changing the stem length dependent on what I’m doing. This obviously changes the RAD and RAD angle. Thanks foe the video ??

What have I started?!!! ??. For the record, and using some of the great comments in this thread, I went with the 430 reach bike and have tried numerous bar/stem combos and have found that, due to my T-Rex proportions, changing the stock 50 stem for a 35 is my sweet spot...even on genuinely...

Hello again! I’m still waiting for the parts to arrive from Spain but, by the sounds of it, I might need to order more than the following... Frame mounting Kit Extra cable Battery Thanks again for your time

Reply from Orbea should this be of use to anyone ??

Thanks Neil

Hi everyone. I’ve just ordered the extra 500W frame battery and the frame bracket kit. Has anybody got this up and running yet? And does the extra battery come with a cable or does that need to be purchased too? (I’ve seen that they can be bought separately from wiggle etc). Thanks for your time

Talking of magnets, mine is still on the spokes as it’s a 2020 model. Has anyone ever tried the deristriction hack of moving the magnet sensor forward on the frame and attaching a new magnet to the crank arm? As shown in the YouTube clip?? Interesting...

Did anyone add an extra battery to their frame?? If so, where did you get the bracket to attach it from? Thanks again. My H10 is arriving tomorrow ????

Another cracking response thanks

Thanks for the really detailed reply!! I’m short and have even shorter body proportions so the reach works for me. Thanks for the headset solution....I’ll see how it initially handles for me though as I’m no shredder!!

First off everyone, if Lolling is still a thing, lol lol lol lol?. which areas don’t you like if you don’t mind me asking? I’ve just returned a Mondraker Dusk for a Wild FS H10 (both 2020 models) although it’s not arrived yet. I’m aware of the geometry and it suits my short upper body. thanks...

Hey. Did you get an answer? Or does the smaller 500w battery fit to the new Spectral ON frame? Apologies if this has already been answere below

Haha. She said Oooh Matron indeed! Haha

Just found this great video. Definitely worth a watch as backs up the shorter is better ethos a treat. Especially for us “little guys”. Maybe your lower back hurts from carrying around your “bigger guy” ego? ? Irrespective, thanks again for your time Gary
