Orbea Laufey H-LTD (2022)

Orbea Laufey H-LTD - The top model of the Laufey 29er hardtail series

The Laufey hardtail series could also be described as the "Swiss army knife" in the Orbea range. A classic, uncomplicated twentyniner with an incredibly versatile range of uses. Just get on and go off-road is the motto. Today, the Laufey can be a fun trail bike, sporty, agile and a strong climber. And tomorrow a comfortable touring bike, ready to experience a new adventure. And it can also be the interface between a youth and adult bike. Because with a smallest possible frame height of around 38 centimetres (S = 15 inches), girls and boys from around 14 years of age can enjoy the riding comfort of a 29-inch mountain bike. In detail, the age of entry naturally depends on the individual inside leg length and body size of the rider.

Sporty and comfortable at the same time, with great attention to detail 

The heart of the Laufey is a first-class aluminium frame with a silhouette all of its own. A striking feature is the upper end of the seat tube, where it forms a small triangle with the top tube and rear triangle. This construction provides enormous torsional stiffness. Cables running inside the tubes provide a clean, uncluttered look. The geometry is adapted to a suspension fork with 140 millimetres of travel, which is generous for this class. The LTD model comes with a Fox 34 Float Performance suspension fork, which provides plenty of comfort reserves in rough terrain. The lightweight RaceFace wheelset is covered with 2.6 inch wide Maxxis tyres, whose superior grip is appreciated even among pro riders. Of course, the setup is prepared for tubeless operation. The drivetrain with Shimano XT 1x12 gears and RaceFace crank works like clockwork. The low-maintenance Shimano Deore disc brakes have proven themselves for years. Another special feature are the high-quality, tuned OC components (Orbea Custom) from our own laboratories. This also includes the exclusive telescopic seat post with which the Laufey H-LTD is equipped ex works.
