New 2025 Wild

[killerade]

You are literally the same as me, I've ridden the demo large at our shop and I've personally ordered a large, but it does feel a little long. I'm coming off of a Pole Voima. If you were the feel of a nimble bike my suggestion is to go with a medium.

I am 184 cm tall, and this is my first Orbea Wild (2025) in size Large. Coming from a size L Orbea Rallon, it does feel noticeably longer but still very nimble and overall offers a very pleasant riding experience.

How about the new 600Wh battery in the older frames?

I’m interested in this too and I emailed Orbea but they said no. However I don’t understand why not. Has anyone else checked this out?

Im also very interested in this, can’t see why it won’t work if it’s the same form factor and assume a bracket bolts onto 600 battery so the mounting points should be the same.

I only have 20 km on the clock but yeah, I was already wondering about that cracking sound. I haven't had the time to investigate it yet, but I definitely will.

From what I've been able to detect, I think the main pivot bolt is causing the problem. There's a lot of play.

Have anybody already dropped motor from 2025 model?

I'm planning to replace brake hose and shift and dropper cable outer housings. Brake hose because new brakes need banjo style mounting and M20 have direct hose to caliper. On shift cable's I trust Shimano SP41 for both shifting quality and longevity instead standard Jagwire.

I don't know if it's possible to replace shifting cable without dropping the motor. I guess least older models there was some zip tie on top of motor. Dropping motor would for sure make this all easier.

Blue book tells to replace the bushings if "removed from the frame". Do I need to remove these from from frame when motor is dropped? Are these Bosch or Orbea parts? As Orbea sells these only with Motor bolt kit, about 50eur, and new bolts etc are not needed anyway

Now done, it was completely possible to replace the outers without dropping motor. Brake hose did slide easily, derailleur outer was more tight, but just possible.
The Rockshox Reverb tool was again priceless, 3M wire pulling lubricant LUB-I is good stuff for this. There may be also other type of skin friendly lubricants that are suitable
