Orbea Gain M40

Yes. The Mahle X20 hub motor is designed to offer zero drag when disengaged, meaning you can ride it exactly like a standard road bike without feeling resistance from the drivetrain.

No, the battery is fully integrated into the frame for a sleeker profile and structural integrity. You will need to plug the bike directly into a power source to charge the system.

The motor provides 50Nm of torque, which is tuned to feel natural rather than aggressive. It is designed to smooth out steep climbs and reduce fatigue on long rides, rather than providing the high-power push found on heavier e-MTBs.

The Shimano Cues U6030 is a robust, reliable 10-speed system designed for durability and smooth shifting. While it is often found on hybrid or gravel bikes, it performs well on the Gain M40, offering crisp gear changes and consistent performance across varied terrain.

The bike comes with 30c tires, which are excellent for tarmac and light gravel. While the frame geometry is optimized for road efficiency, you should check the specific clearance limits with your local dealer before installing wider tires, as the frame is designed primarily for road-focused handling.

The OMR Carbon Monocoque frame significantly reduces the bike's overall weight compared to alloy alternatives, making it much easier to handle and maneuver. The carbon layup also helps dampen road vibrations, resulting in a smoother, more comfortable ride over long distances.
