2027 Orbea Wild LT M20 Mullet

The 2027 Orbea Wild LT M20 Mullet is created for riders who refuse to choose between range and descending. Its OMR carbon chassis pairs 170mm of rear travel with a 170mm fork, creating the balanced suspension platform needed for steep chutes, rough traverses, and technical climbs. This version uses a 29-inch front wheel and 27.5-inch rear wheel, giving the bike a distinct blend of rollover, cornering response, and stability. Orbea’s new Wild LT platform is centered around the compact Avinox system, allowing the frame, suspension, and rider position to work together without the bulky feel associated with many full-power e-bikes.

At the center of the bike is the Avinox M2S motor and an 800Wh integrated battery. The system is designed to provide immediate assistance on demanding climbs while maintaining a natural connection between pedal input and rear-wheel traction. An Avinox DP100 display presents ride information clearly, while the Avinox BC100 keeps the key controls within easy reach. A four-amp charger is included for predictable charging at home or while traveling.

The frame uses Orbea’s Concentric Boost suspension layout to manage 170mm of rear-wheel movement. This architecture separates braking and suspension forces effectively, helping the rear wheel stay active under hard braking. A 205x65mm Fox Float X Performance controls the rear suspension, while the RockShox ZEB Base DebonAir+ 170mm provides the stiffness and damping range required for modern e-enduro speeds. The result is a chassis that remains supportive when pedaling and composed when impacts arrive in quick succession.

The drivetrain is built around Shimano Deore M7200 components and a 10-51 cassette range. The e*thirteen Helix Core e*spec uses short 155mm arms across every frame size, increasing ground clearance and reducing pedal strikes on ledgy climbs. A 34-tooth e-bike chainring and dedicated chainguide keep the chain secure when the terrain becomes violent. The gearing provides the low range needed for steep technical ascents without sacrificing useful speed on transfer sections and open descents.

Braking is handled by Shimano MT420 four-piston hydraulic discs with large 200mm rotors. This setup is intended to manage heat and deliver consistent lever feel on long descents where a heavy, powerful e-bike can overwhelm lighter brake systems. The Race Face AR 30c MX wheelset provides a durable foundation for a Maxxis Assegai front tire and Minion rear tire, combining aggressive cornering bite with dependable braking traction.

The cockpit uses a OC MC30 alloy handlebar with an 800mm width, paired with a size-specific OC stem. The OC MC22 dropper gives each frame size appropriate drop, allowing the saddle to move fully out of the way on steep terrain. A Fizik Aidon saddle supports seated climbing, and lock-on grips maintain a secure connection to the bike. Orbea also integrates a pivot-mounted multitool and a rear axle with a six-millimeter hex key, putting common trail adjustments directly on the frame.

The Wild LT is shaped around maximum ground clearance and confident rider positioning. Short cranks, carefully selected bottom-bracket height, and size-specific cockpit dimensions make it easier to continue pedaling through rocks and steps. The S through XL size range receives tailored stem and dropper dimensions so riders are not forced into a single compromise setup. Internal routing and an Acros headset keep the front of the bike clean and protected.

With its OMR carbon frame, Avinox power, 800Wh battery, RockShox ZEB Base DebonAir+ 170mm, Fox Float X Performance, Shimano Deore M7200 drivetrain, and Race Face AR 30c MX wheels, the Wild LT M20 Mullet offers a focused component package rather than a collection of unrelated upgrades. It is designed for riders who want to climb farther, repeat more descents, and attack trails with the suspension travel and braking authority of a serious enduro bike.

The 2027 Orbea Wild LT M20 Mullet is not simply built to add assistance to a mountain bike. It uses that assistance to expand what a long-travel bike can accomplish in a day. From technical desert climbs to sustained alpine descents, the platform delivers the range, control, and durability needed to keep saying yes when the trail gets harder.
