Orbea Introduces Urrun Long-Distance Electric Mountain Bike

Spanish cycling company Orbea has long been in the business of providing top-tier bicycles for both sport and leisure riders. It prides itself with an extensive catalog of bicycles that fit most budgets. In today's electric day and age, Orbea has not let itself fall to the wayside, and continues innovating in the world of e-bikes. Its latest creation comes in the form of the Urrun, and it's a simple, no-frills electric hardtail mountain bike. 

Like many innovations in the world of cycling, the Urrun is the result of numbers—data gathered from research using the company's already vast customer range. Orbea states that it found that around a quarter of its e-MTB riders use their bikes on so called "technical terrain." Futhermore, more than 80-percent of its e-bike users don't ride further than 60 kilometers out of fear of running out of juice before making it back home. As such, Orbea developed the Urrun as a more entry-level offering, ticking the boxes of how most of its users would treat their e-bikes.
