Orbea electric road bikes are designed for riders who want fast, efficient performance on tarmac with the added benefit of electric assistance for hills, headwinds and longer routes. At the same time, Orbea’s gravel-capable e-bikes add versatility for mixed surfaces, combining endurance comfort with confident handling on rough roads and adventure routes.
Why choose an Orbea electric road or gravel bike?
Orbea is known for a performance-first approach, and their electric road and gravel bikes are built to feel quick, refined and engaging to ride. Electric assistance helps you maintain pace on rolling terrain and extend your range on big days, while endurance-focused geometry and wider tyres on gravel-ready builds improve comfort and control when routes leave smooth tarmac behind.
