The Orbea Alma H30 suits riders who prioritise fast, efficient cross-country riding and mixed-surface adventures over aggressive downhill or highly technical trail riding.
The Alma H30 is a focused cross-country hardtail with the versatility to link up roads, fire trails and singletrack. Its Advanced Alloy frame keeps the ride responsive and efficient, while internal cable routing and Boost rear spacing give the bike a clean, purposeful build. The Shimano Deore 12-speed drivetrain combines smooth shifting with a wide 11-51t cassette, giving you the range to tackle steep climbs without compromising useful speed on flatter trails.
On the trail, the Alma feels particularly quick on smooth climbs and rolling terrain. The rigid rear end transfers pedalling effort directly, and the SR Suntour Raidon 32 100mm fork takes the edge off roots and bumps while its remote lockout lets you firm up the front end for smoother sections. The supplied Maxxis Ikon 2.20″ tyres favour speed and easy acceleration, making this a lively choice for cross-country riding and mixed-surface adventures.
Its handling is nimble and deliberate rather than designed for charging the roughest lines. Pick clean lines through technical sections and the Alma rewards you with sharp cornering, easy direction changes and a strong sense of connection to the trail. Choose it if you want efficient climbing, predictable hydraulic braking and all-day off-road versatility in a straightforward hardtail package.

Orbea is a Spanish bicycle brand with roots in Eibar, Basque Country, dating back to 1840. Over time, the company shifted into bicycle production and developed a strong identity around performance cycling, urban bikes and electric bikes.
Since 1969, Orbea has operated as a worker cooperative, a structure that grew out of a major reinvention of the company. The brand is now based in Mallabia and is known globally for road, mountain, urban and e-bike models, along with a long connection to racing and bike design.
