So I have my new steed on order!! Actually still don't know the ship time yet, still I'm super stoked!! Been riding a GT Aggressor and it's all good, don't get me wrong, but now I get to try my hand with a 2022 Orbea Occam H20 Eagle build!!! I'm still a noob so this should be plenty bike for me and get me doing the things I wanna do! I'm not bombing down Whistler so I think I'll be fine lol!! Anyone here just getting or have gotten a Occam and have any input??

Did I just count 11 exclamation marks in a single paragraph? Always exciting getting a new ride. I'm sure you'll love it. Try putting Orbea Occam in the title, more people that have one will notice.

Lol yeah there may be a few extra exclamation marks there!

I'd be excited too ... Looking at your bike right now. Wow! I never really looked into Orbea. For some reason always thought they were overpriced and only offered higher premium bikes, kinda like Yeti.

This H20 Eagle looks sick and that's a great price for what you're getting ... internal cable routing, Fox Performance suspension, GX/NX drivetrain and Descendant cranks. That's a lot of quality components at that price point.

Where do you mostly ride?

Also new revised geo on a bike that has reviewed very strongly.

Right now I mainly ride in the southeast US. Should be moving sometime during the first quarter of the year, possibly to Utah. The wife's job travels and we are thinking of heading that way. Orbea wasn't on my radar at first. I actually was looking into quite a few others. After some research and looking around I came across them. I love the warranty on the frame. I know some other companies have it but not many. Coming from my hardtail this bike should be amazing!

Yep! No flip chip though. Can't say it would matter to me though lol.

That's kinda what I did. Was into BMX as a kid then took a hiatus and 5 years ago got a hardtail and just last year got my FS. I'm in PA and was pretty surprised at how big and passionate the MTB community is in the Southeast. Hit up Kanuga and did some riding around Ashville and Knoxville which was a ton of fun. Only riding out West I did was Trestle and Sedona. It's so sick out there for MTB, IMO it's the best in the US. Enjoy your bike. Report back when you get it!
