The New Orbea Rallon

Focus On Fast(er)

Rallon was forged on the racecourse and is the obvious choice of our EDR race team, but Rallon is always ready for fun outside of the tape and loves fast laps with friends, high-5 ́s and near misses. Fearless, Rallon is up for hitting the biggest gaps in the park, smashing berms, and scorning braking bumps. Forget limits, forget distractions, just focus on fast.

WHAT MAKES RALLON UNIQUE?

NEW GEOMETRY: The new Rallon increases its travel from 160 mm to 167 mm and achieves greater absorption capacity on the demanding UCI EDR courses. It also has more aggressive geometry with a more aggressive steering angle that goes from 64º to 63.5º. Improvements that make the fastest Enduro machine even faster.

NEW COLORS and BUILDS: Rallon releases new graphics as well as two new colors Forest Green – Blue Stone and Mars Red – Black. As if that weren’t enough, the Sram AXS is also available on the M11 and M-LTD models.

EVOLVED DESIGN

Enduro racing continues to evolve, with more aggressive tracks, and Rallon evolves too. The latest update offers more travel and more aggressive geometry to help riders push harder for longer.

LONG, LOW AND SLACK: The 63.5º or 64º head angle, 485mm reach on the large frame and 28mm or 35mm BB drop give Rallon incredible stability at
speed and natural cornering.

LOW STANDOVER: The seat tube is uninterrupted and also shorter, giving lower standover than ever. The Rallon is designed to work with 200mm
dropper posts.

STEEP SEAT ANGLE: The steep seat tube helps improve the pedalling position and stability on the climbs as well as working better with long dropper
posts.

ADJUSTABLE: Rallon continues with it’s LOW and LOWER positions which riders love.

FOCUS ON FAST: Racing is all about focus and you don’t need to be distracted by the noise your bike is making. The only noise you want to hear is the crowd cheering. The Rallon uses custom co-moulded plastic protectors to shield the frame from impacts and remove chain noise. Cable noise is eliminated using internal cable guides, improved silicon plugs at the frame entry and exit points and clever conduits linking the front and rear triangle. This attention to the details means you can focus on just riding fast.

PRECISION TRACKING: Frame rigidity affects feel and grip and it is possible to have a frame which is too stiff to track the terrain efficiently. Manipulating the carbon weave allows us to control flexibility without sacrificing strength, giving a perfectly balanced front and rear triangle stiffness. A lot of technology, modeling and testing which translates to confidence and grip on rough cambered terrain and valuable fractions in race runs.

FULLY SEALED BEARINGS: Everyone hates changing bearings. Normally bearings fail due to being dirty, not overloaded, and with Rallon we have worked hard to seal all the bearings. Clean bearings last longer and also keep the suspension working optimally when the conditions are filthy.

SUSPENSION

Totally revised suspension kinematics give a more progressive suspension curve with a more rearward axle path which, combined with 167mm of rear travel is hard to beat; fast and agile in the turns with plenty of control and traction in the rough. Add the beefy Fox 38 fork and Rallon is ready for whatever you have in mind.

GRAVITY ORIENTED KINEMATICS:

LINEAR PROGRESSIVE: A high starting leverage rate gives a plush and active feel combined with terrific traction. A progressive curve controls the bike in full-travel situations – the inevitable big hits that come along with pointing a capable bike down a rocky trail.

IMPROVED AXLE PATH: A more forward pivot point increases the backwards component of the axle path, particularly in the first part of the travel. The Rallon floats through square hits with ease, maintaining speed and minimising fatigue.

BRAKING AND PEDALING CHARACTERISTICS: Anti-rise and anti-squat are kept largely the same because our racers love the way the bike remains active under braking and sprints out of slower speed turns.

MYO: DESIGN YOUR RIDE

We are familiar with the draw of self-expression and a desire to create. For years the MyO program has allowed riders to personalize their Orbeas to an extent that is unique in the industry. Customize the paint of your Rallon for free. Say “NO” to the standard Bike In A Box offered by our competitors.

We offer MyO component options for many Orbea models. Switching a wheelset, gearing or other components is possible through the ordering process, so your Rallon arrives at the dealer in the exact configuration you desire.
