Product Description
High speed antics and race performance. The Orbea Rallon M10 enduro MTB is full sus mountain bike purpose built for going fast.
The all new Orbea Monocoque Race Carbon frame on the Rallon is built with enduro racing intentions at its heart, and rolls on 29” wheels. With a blend of high modulus and high strength fibres, the carbon sheets are laser cut to optimise the layout and reduce excess material. It features Boost 12x148mm spacing to get the chainstays nice and short for playful handling, as well as giving plenty of tyre clearance.
The Asymmetry Ergonomics create an offset that allows easy access to the shock controls, plus space for a 500ml water bottle. It also gives generous stand-over height, allowing riders to choose the size of their bike based on desired reach, rather than the height of the frame. The offset pivot link also helps the suspension kinematics work their magic by giving a sensitive initial stroke and excellent pedalling efficiency.
The Fox DPX2 Factory 3-Position Adjust Evol rear shock has the slippery Kashima coating and controls the Concentric Boost rear suspension. Up front is a Fox 36 Float Performance 3-Position fork with 160mm travel. The paired Fox shocks do a superb job of maintaining control in the roughest terrain you’ll come across.
SRAM’s GX Eagle 1x12 speed drivetrain offers a huge 500% gear range, making sure you’ll have no problem getting up those steep pitches and long climbs. When the speed gets high, the Shimano XT disc brakes haul you down with reliable and consistent performance.
The 29” DT Swiss E1900 wheels are strong for hard riding and are wrapped in Maxxis tyres, with a Minion DHF in front and a fast rolling Aggressor out back for a great balance of speed and grip.
Race to the top with the Orbea Rallon M10.

Full Sus MTB Guide
Is a full-suspension mountain bike right for me?
If you’re new to the world of cycling, we highly recommend taking a look at our bike buying guide overview or our mountain bike buying guide to help you decide what type of bike is right for your needs.
When you’re choosing a full suspension mountain bike, there are a few things to look out for which can help you to work out the quality and performance you can expect from a particular model.
Suspension travel & usage
Depending on the type of mountain bike riding you’ll be doing, you may want to have longer or shorter suspension travel on your bike:
|
Travel |
Usage |
Pros |
Cons |
|
Up to 120mm |
XC |
Lightweight & efficient pedalling for long-distance rides |
Short travel is less capable on rough & demanding trails with large jumps & drops |
|
120 – 150mm |
Trail |
Lightweight, balance of climb-friendly efficiency & rough-descent capability |
More weight than a shorter travel bike & less efficient climbing. Less capable on descents than a longer travel bike |
|
150-180mm |
Enduro |
Capable of covering difficult & technical downhill sections. Wide enough gear range for climbing |
Heavier & significantly less efficient at climbing compared to shorter travel bikes |
|
180mm + |
Downhill |
Designed for highly technical & high-speed descents, with big drops and large jumps |
Heavy, and inefficient at climbing. Limited gear range means most climbs will require pushing the bike |
Frame material
Full-suspension MTB frames are mostly made from either aluminium or carbon fibre, with each material having its own benefits & drawbacks.
Aluminium is lightweight, stiff, strong, and easy to manufacture. Manufacturers often develop their own aluminium alloys, such as ALUXX by Giant. Aluminium is found on a wide range of bikes, from entry-level & enthusiast bikes, right the way up to top-spec racing bikes.
Carbon fibre is lighter, stiffer, stronger, and more expensive than aluminium. The most affordable carbon bikes typically use medium strength carbon fibres, while the most expensive bikes use stronger ‘high modulus’ carbon. Carbon fibre frames are found on enthusiast-level bikes, right up to high-performance bikes designed for racing.
Groupset & drivetrain
A bike’s groupset, or drivetrain, is where the biggest difference in component quality is seen.
A complete groupset comprises of the following parts:
- Chainset (aka Crankset)
- Bottom bracket
- Brakes
- Brake levers
- Shifters
- Front & rear derailleur
- Chain
- Cassette
Mountain bike groupset components are typically supplied by either Shimano or SRAM, with additional manufacturers like Formula, Hope, Magura, Tektro and TRP supplying brake systems. Shimano & SRAM both produce a range of groupsets to suit different budgets. The hierarchy table here compares the different Shimano & SRAM groupsets to determine which bikes offer the best performance.
Wheel size
You’ve probably noticed that a lot of mountain bikes come in a choice of wheel size, mainly a 27.5 inch wheel (also known as a 650B wheel) or a 29inch wheel (known as a 29er). Although there are still bikes which use 26 inch wheels, these are gradually being phased out on all but the smallest bikes. The difference between these wheel sizes can have a dramatic effect on the way a bike feels and handles out on the trail.
27.5inch wheels are smaller and lighter than 29er wheels, which makes them more agile and gives the bike a more responsive & playful nature. On the other hand, the smaller wheel size rolls less efficiently than the larger size, making the bike more prone to losing speed over rough ground and making it a little slower when climbing.
29er wheels have a bigger rolling radius which makes them naturally smoother over rough ground. For this reason, a 29er mountain bike often requires less suspension travel than smaller wheeled alternatives. The downsides are an increase in weight, and the larger diameter wheels generate stronger gyroscopic forces, making the bike more stable, but less agile and responsive whilst manoeuvring.
26 inch wheels were once the go-to wheel size on adult mountain bikes. However, they are now typically only found on the smallest frame sizes, and on junior bikes. 26 inch wheels are lightweight and give the bike very agile handling. The downsides to 26 inch wheels are their poor rolling resistance on rough ground, and the reduced contact patch due to the smaller wheel circumference.
Suspension components
Mountain bike suspension components (i.e. the fork or rear shock absorber) are also a way to identify the quality of a bike. While Fox and RockShox are the most common manufacturers, there are a number of brands producing suspension components for mountain bikes.
Entry level full suspension mountain bikes (up to approximately £1300) may come supplied with a fork & rear shock supplied by SR Suntour, X-Fusion or RockShox. These components will allow a limited amount of adjustment, including:
- Coil spring preload / air spring pressure adjustment
- Lockout switch
- Rebound damping adjustment on models towards the top of the price range.
Mid-range & enthusiast bikes (up to approximately £3500) use components from brands including Fox, RockShox and Manitou. At this level, suspension components have features like:
- Preload adjustment / air spring pressure adjustment
- Rebound damping adjustment
- Lockout switch
- Multi-position ‘mode’ switch
- Components towards the top end of the enthusiast price range may also feature compression damping adjustment as well.
Top of the range & competition spec bikes (over £3500) also use components from Fox, RockShox & Manitou, with a few select models using parts from Ohlins. At this price, suspension components have features including:
- Coil spring preload adjustment / air spring pressure adjustment
- High & low speed rebound damping adjustment
- High & low speed compression damping adjustment
- Lockout switch
- Multi-position 'mode' switch
- Advanced low-friction coatings (e.g. Fox’s golden-coloured Kashima coating)
