The One Up V3 in 210mm should fit with plenty of room to spare on any size frame.
2023-24 Orbea Wild - Max Seat Post Insertion Depth based on Frame Size
S - 310mm
M - 310mm
L - 320mm (hydro)
L - 327mm (carbon)
XL - 350mm
These specs can be found on page 31 of the 2023-2024 Orbea Wild Technical Manual

I guess my frame size would have been helpful. I am on a medium. I think the 210 would work. Thanks.
How do you like the One Up dropper? Reliable? I am currently running a Bike Yoke on my other bike and love it, but they go from 185 to 213, so it is a no go for me. The Bike Yoke has been on my other bike for 2,300 miles and I’ve never had to even service it, add oil or anything. I am also considering the Wolf Tooth.
Only used it once so far lol

Reading all this with interest. Looking to get a longer travel dropper on mine soon.
Only had a handful of rides on it but I've thrown it down some seriously rough terrain as a baptism of fire and it's absolutely loved it. So impressed with it.

I’m loving my we are one’s, 2 years and no issues with the hoops. Had an i9 hub driver strip on me, but was promptly replaced under warranty
My new Wild M11 AXS is here and ready to ride with a few mods. One Up handlebars, One Up V3 210 mm dropper, SDG dropper post lever, 5Dev cranks 155 mm, Deity Bladerunner pedals, Specialized Power Expert saddle and full Ride Wrap. Next week new Nobl TR 38 wheels with Sapim Race spokes will be going on and I will be adding the low speed compression adjustment to the Fox Float X. I think that’ll be it for now. Gonna see how I like the brakes, but those may get swapped as well.
I did this on my brandnew M10. But I have to say that the adjuster does not affect the compression rate. Same with my Rise H10.
I‘m sure these dampers have got a special Orbea tune or a special base valve. This prevents the adjuster to work.

Nice! That dropper is slammed, I need to do the same. Congrats, such a good bike
For those that have swapped out the original stem and spacers using the Orbea Headset Adaptor Universal Adaptor, what did you do to prevent the fork from hitting the frame with no more spin block protection? How does this affect the cables if the handlebar turns past 90 degree, does it pull the cables to a point of potential damage?
I ride an XL so cant help on the first question as the fork misses the downtube on a XL.
For the cables, I just made sure they weren't super tight and had a little excess in the Headtube/Downtube incase of the bars turning, I've had a few crashes were the bars have spun round and not had a problem with cables being pulled out.
Thanks for the reply
With the speed sensor mounted to the stem on the back wheel, what are my options for carrying a tube in my pack for flat tires? I’ve always carried a Tubolito in my pack as a backup, but that won’t work to hold the speed sensor in place.

The Topeak Presta Valve Extender is compatible with Tubolito inner tubes. Not sure if really necessary though since the Tubolito inner tubes have 42mm stems which should be long enough as is.

Isn’t the speed sensor held on by the nut on the valve stem? Tubilito doesn’t have a nut only the cap. Maybe I am missing something here?

Thought we’d seen the last of the frame issues with this new gen, but the following are happening on Alu Wild new gen frames.
Alignment issue with rear triangle, causing shock to wear on one side - requires frame replacement.
Rear Chainstay and triangle cracking/Failing.
This is happened on the new gen, 3 people on the “we are Orbea wild” FB have reported this failure with pictures.
Really wanted to get one of these, but not in Carbon. Looks like Carbon is the way to go if you really want a wild, stay away from the Alu ones, Orbea have a manufacturing issue with their Alu frames and have learnt sweet FA from the last gen.
We pay upwards of £6k for these bikes and we deserve a lot better ffs and shouldn’t accept this as a norm.

Simply re use the nut you already have.

As this Gen if Wild came out at the end of 2022, should we expect a new Gen end of this year?

Bosch gen 5 is expected in October with more range for 600g less weight. I would expect Orbea to update the Wild as soon as possible because other brands will start to approach the wild weights more easily with the next gen system.

Has any1 ordered the "Carbon Raw" yet? I'm curious about how it looks in real pictures.
My frame is getting replaced with this one but have not yet seen it in real life

I've been running WeAreOne wheels for the past four years, love them. Full disclosure, I work at a shop and have a buddy working at WeAreOne. But they are awesome to deal with, and have a no BS warranty.
Not to bag on Nobl, but it you crack the same rim multiple times it'll get to the point that they won't warranty the rim anymore. With WeAreOne, you could crack the same rim 6 times and they'll replace it 6 times. I've seen it first hand with one of the kids we deal with that rides 26" Coups on his dirt jumper. And before anyone says why does he keep breaking them. He's pro and would literally destroy any rim at some point.
But at least he knows that WeAreOne stands behind the warranty on them.
Personally I prefer DT Swiss hubs, they seem to be more reliable than I9 hubs from what I've seen over the years with myself and customers.
Haven’t seen it in person, but if I could choose any color out there, this would be it.Has any1 ordered the "Carbon Raw" yet? I'm curious about how it looks in real pictures.

And…..another one that’s failed at the chainstay, 4th one this month on the Orbea Wild FB group. If you want to get a Wild, DO NOT GET ALLOY FRAME

Hey Rob, I don't suppose you know what crown race I need for the M10? I'm swapping out the Fox 38 performance for the new 2025 Fox Factory in 170mm travel.
Thanks.

Does your current fork have the fat crown?

Hi Rob, yes it does. The 68HT crown and the new 170mm forks I've got coming are also 68HT.

You should just be able to remove the existing race and refit to the new forks
