The ORBEA Motor Protector EP8 RS is designed to shield the heart of your e-MTB: the Shimano EP8 RS motor. Positioned around the underside and leading edges of the drive unit, this protector helps defend against rock strikes, trail debris, and mud spray that can damage or prematurely wear your motor housing. Built to integrate cleanly with compatible Orbea frames, it follows the lines of the bike for a neat, factory-style look while adding an extra layer of confidence when the terrain gets rough and unpredictable.
Ideal for riders who regularly tackle rocky trails, technical climbs, or loose descents, the Motor Protector EP8 RS helps preserve both performance and resale value by reducing cosmetic damage and potential impacts to the motor area. Installation is typically straightforward, using existing mounting points or hardware designed for the frame, so you can upgrade your protection without complicated modifications. Whether you are riding all-mountain, trail, or enduro-style routes, this motor guard is a smart, low-profile upgrade that keeps your e-bike’s power unit safer for the long haul.
