This technical manual specifies the maximum size of the
tyres that can be mounted on the frame. Always follow
these guidelines when installing tyres on your bicycle.
However, the real measurements of the tyre circumfer-
ence and width may change from one manufacturer to
another. When installing a tyre other than that originally
mounted on your Orbea bicycle, check that there is at
least 6 mm between the top and the sides of the tyre and
any part of the frame.
Terra Hydro 2022 is compatible with ETRTO 622mm
(700C) and ETRTO 584mm (650B) wheels. Consult the
tyre maximum width on both assemblies in the technical
specifications table in this manual.
Consult also the maximum and minimum tyre width that
can be installed and a given rim depending on its internal
width. Read the OC wheels compatibility table on our web-
site or the rim manufacturer's documentation.
Damage to the frame or components due to
the use of a tyre that does not comply with
these measurements is not covered by the
warranty conditions.

Always follow the specifications regarding
the minimum insertion depth of the seatpost
or the frame on road bicycles with exclusive
Orbea seatposts. The failure to follow these
instructions can cause stresses on the ma-
terials beyond the conditions for which they
were designed and cause damage not cov-
ered by the warranty conditions, as well as
accidents that can result in serious injuries.

Never use more headset spacers below the
stem than those specified for the frame. Con-
sult the specifications tables to find out the
maximum number of headset spacers that
are acceptable for use on an Orbea frame.
Installing more spacers than those permitted
can stress the materials beyond the use for
which they were designed, which can cause
accidents and serious injuries.

Never install headset spacers above the stem.
Placing spacers above the stem, especially on
forks with a carbon steerer tube, can cause
the expander inside the fork tube to be po-
sitioned above the lower limit of the steerer
tube, which can stress the materials beyond
the use for which they were designed, possibly
causing accidents and serious injuries.
The length of the fork steerer tube must
always be appropriate for the position of the
stem in the fork. The stem must always be
installed in the steerer tube of the fork so that
both fastening bolts on the back of the stem
are positioned above the surface of the stee-
rer tube of the fork. Never mount the stem so
that the top fastening bolt of the stem remains
above the top edge of the fork steerer tube.
This will stress the materials beyond the use
for which they were designed, possibly cau-
sing accidents and serious injuries.

INTENDED USE

The intended use of all models is ASTM Condition 2, that in-
cludes Condition 1 as well as unpaved and gravel roads and
trails with moderate grades with drops limited to 15 cm.
For information about all ASTM categories, consult the Ge-
neral User Manual.
