This document serves as a technical manual for the Orbea Laufey 2020 mountain bike, providing comprehensive information on its geometry, technical specifications, hardware, cabling, maintenance, and warranty. It is designed to assist users and dealers in understanding, assembling, maintaining, and troubleshooting the bicycle.
The Orbea Laufey 2020 is a versatile mountain bike designed for trail and all-mountain riding. Its robust aluminum frame is built to withstand the rigors of off-road cycling while offering a comfortable and efficient riding experience. The bike's geometry is carefully engineered to provide stability and control across various terrains, making it suitable for both challenging descents and technical climbs. The frame is available in multiple sizes (S, M, L, XL) to accommodate a wide range of rider heights, ensuring an optimal fit and ergonomic riding position.
The Laufey 2020 is equipped with features that enhance its performance and adaptability on the trail. It supports both 29" and 27.5" wheel sizes, allowing riders to customize their setup based on personal preference and riding conditions. The frame is designed to accommodate a maximum tire size of 29x2.6 or 27.5x3.0, providing ample traction and cushioning. The fork travel options of 140mm (with a 150mm option) contribute to its capability in absorbing impacts and maintaining control over rough terrain.
The bike's cabling system is internally routed through the downtube with a full sleeve, which not only gives the bike a clean aesthetic but also protects the cables from external elements and potential damage. This internal routing is ready for left-hand cabling, offering flexibility in setup. The frame includes provisions for bottle holders, with one holder in size S frames and two in sizes M, L, and XL, ensuring riders can carry sufficient hydration for longer rides.
The Laufey 2020 is compatible with 11 and 12-speed drivetrains, offering a wide range of gearing options for different riding styles and gradients. It is designed for a single chainring setup, supporting a maximum size of 34T (round) and a minimum of 30T, which simplifies the drivetrain and reduces maintenance. The bike features a Boost 148x12 rear axle standard, enhancing stiffness and wheel strength. The disc post mount brake system ensures powerful and reliable stopping performance.
The manual emphasizes the importance of regular maintenance to ensure the longevity and optimal performance of the Orbea Laufey. Orbea products are designed for ease of maintenance, and the aluminum frame is noted for its corrosion resistance.
Regular washing with mild soap and water is recommended to keep the bike looking good and to facilitate inspection of the frame and components. Users are advised to avoid high-pressure water and spraying water directly into bearings or frame tubes. Citrus degreasers are suggested for removing grease from gears and the chain.
After cleaning, applying fresh lube to the chain is crucial. Only enough lube to get inside the links should be used, and any excess should be wiped off to prevent dirt attraction. Headset and pivot bearings should be inspected every few months to ensure smoothness and intact seals.
A quick pre-ride check is highly recommended to catch small issues before they become major problems on the trail. This includes:
Bearings are wear-and-tear components that are critical for the proper function of other parts, including wheels, steering column, bottom bracket, and full suspension frame pivots. Regular checks are necessary to ensure bearings turn freely, without lateral play. Worn or damaged bearings should be replaced immediately to prevent further wear on the frame. Damp weather conditions can accelerate bearing wear, and pressurized water hoses should be avoided during cleaning. For any questions, users are advised to consult an Orbea dealer for diagnosis and maintenance.
The manual provides specific instructions for inspecting the bike after a crash or impact. Riders should first ensure their own safety and seek medical attention if necessary. If not injured, the bike should be thoroughly checked for damage:
Orbea offers a legal warranty for its products for a period of two years (or as stipulated by local laws) to the original owner, covering manufacturing defects and lack of conformity, including paint, varnish, and corrosion defects on frames and rigid forks. This warranty does not cover damage from misuse, lack of maintenance, or normal wear and tear of perishable parts.
Additionally, Orbea provides a Lifetime Warranty for frames and rigid forks against manufacturing defects, provided the original buyer registers the bicycle on the Orbea website within 30 days of purchase. This lifetime warranty also extends the coverage for paint, varnish, and corrosion defects for an additional year beyond the legal warranty period. Full details of both warranties are available on the Orbea website.
All warranty claims must be processed through an authorized Orbea dealer, who will provide the necessary documentation for diagnosis and inform the customer of Orbea's decision.
The manual also includes information on how to register a bicycle to activate the Lifetime Warranty, with clear steps and illustrations. It also provides contact information for Orbea's social media channels (Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Instagram), content portal, blog, and customer support for technical questions and general inquiries. A dealer locator is also provided on the Orbea website to help customers find expert assistance for setting up and maintaining their Orbea bicycle.
