The Orbea Terra is a new model from the Spanish bike manufacturer that promises bikepacking prowess through mounting points, larger tire clearance, inner-frame storage, and tweaked geometry for fully loaded adventures. Find details here…

The Orbea Terra is one of two new models from the Spanish bike company that promises a slightly more race-oriented approach. With mounting points on the fork leg, top tube, down tube, seat tube, and fender mounts, it’s an aggressive carbon gravel bike with all the modern accouterments to accommodate light bikepacking bags. New additions to their Terra line of bikes also include clearance for up to 700 x 50mm tires, tweaked geometry that is supposedly more suitable for quick, confident handling characteristics, and a longer wheelbase for greater stability when things get rough.

Orbea has also expanded the capacity of their downtube storage on the new Terra models, as this inner frame storage system—the LOCKR XXL—has 35 percent more volume than prior iterations and provides internal space for tools, snacks, or spare layers. The most affordable build, the TERRA M30TEAM 1X, costs $3,000 and features Shimano GRX, alloy wheels, and a carbon frame. The top-end model is equipped with SRAM Force AXS and costs $6,300.

In addition to the release of the Orbea Terra comes the Orbea Terra Race. More focused on weight savings than mounting points, the Orbea Terra Race is a steeper, more aggressive carbon gravel bike with less capacity for storage and bikepacking equipment. At just 910 grams for the frame, it’s a full 300 grams lighter than prior iterations. It also has less tire clearance, as it takes a step down from the Orbea Terra with a maximum stated clearance of just 700 x 45mm. Both models are fully UDH compatible and have a variety of customization options for complete models through Orbea. The Orbea Terra Race completes start at $5,200 USD, with the top-of-the-line SRAM RED AXS model going for $10,500 USD.
