FAQs

Does the bike come with pedals?

Typically, high-performance mountain bikes like the Occam SL M10 do not include pedals, allowing riders to choose the clipless or flat system that suits their preference.

Can I adjust the suspension damping?

Yes, the Fox Factory suspension features multiple adjustment points, including rebound and compression, to tailor the feel to your riding style.

Is the frame compatible with a dropper post?

The frame is designed with internal routing compatible with modern dropper posts.

How often should I service the Fox Factory suspension?

Orbea recommends a full service for Fox Factory components every 125 hours of riding to maintain warranty and performance.

What is the primary benefit of the OMR carbon frame?

The OMR (Orbea Monocoque Race) construction optimizes carbon fiber placement to maximize stiffness and strength while minimizing weight.

Troubleshooting

Suspension feels unresponsive or harsh

Check your sag settings and ensure the rebound adjustment is not set to the slowest position.

Shifting is hesitant or skips gears

Inspect the derailleur hanger for alignment and check for stretched cable housing.

Brakes have reduced stopping power

Check for contaminated brake pads or air in the hydraulic lines; replace pads if they are worn past the service limit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Occam SL M10, perform a safety check before every ride, focusing on tire pressure and brake lever responsiveness. The carbon frame should be inspected periodically for any impact marks or cracks.

  1. Suspension Setup: Set the sag on both the fork and shock according to your body weight using a high-pressure shock pump.
  2. Drivetrain Maintenance: Clean and lubricate the chain every 50-100 miles, ensuring the Shimano XT cassette remains free of debris.
  3. Brake Bleeding: Schedule a professional brake bleed at least once a season or if the lever feel becomes 'spongy.'
  4. Storage: Always store the bike in a dry, climate-controlled environment to prevent degradation of the suspension seals and hydraulic fluids.
