New Orbea Occam SL and LT 2026: adjustable head angle, internal or external cable routing, and more MyO options

Orbea has just launched the new Occam SL and Occam LT, two versions that share a platform but offer specific approaches for different types of bikers. They are now more adjustable, more customizable, and with a renewed aesthetic.

The new Orbea Occam SL and LT are more versatile, adjustable, and customizable

The Occam SL is designed for cyclists looking for lightness, efficiency, and speed on long rides. Equipped with 140 mm of travel on both suspensions, it stands out for its ability to maintain flow even on the most technical terrains, prioritizing efficient pedaling and agility.

On the other hand, the Occam LT represents the more daring side of the Trail. With 160 mm of front travel and 150 mm rear, its focus is clear: maximum traction and absorption to let go on descents and tackle the roughest terrains with confidence. It is the ideal option for those looking to go beyond on every ride, with a geometry designed for aggressiveness without sacrificing control.

Highlighted technical innovations

The new Occam not only evolve in their specifications, but also incorporate key elements that reinforce their versatility and customization:

• Adjustable geometry: it is now possible to modify the head angle by ±0.75° (three positions in total), allowing to adapt the bike to the type of terrain or riding style. A steeper angle improves precision, while a more open one provides greater stability in aggressive descents.
• Internal or external cabling: one of the most frequent requests from the community has been heard. The new Occam allow you to choose between a completely internal cabling system —for those who prioritize a clean aesthetic— or external, to facilitate maintenance.
• Renewed colors and graphics: with a modern and elegant image, Orbea introduces new combinations in its MyO customization program, such as Ivory White - Nickel or Sunset Carbon View - Black and Escape Green Carbon View for carbon frames, and Metallic Cinnamon - Black or Spaceship Green - Acid Gum and Tanzanite for aluminum models.

Both the Occam SL and LT are now available in the Orbea catalog, ready to take the trail experience to a new level. You can check out all the models and builds on the official Orbea website.
