The Orbea Preload Bolt UAIC is a small but essential suspension component designed to keep your fork or shock performing at its best. As part of the preload assembly, this bolt helps set and maintain the correct spring tension, ensuring your suspension responds smoothly to bumps, braking forces, and changing terrain.

Ideal as a replacement or spare, the Orbea Preload Bolt UAIC is engineered to integrate seamlessly with compatible Orbea suspension systems. Using the correct original hardware helps prevent unwanted play, creaks, or premature wear in your fork or shock. Whether you are servicing your bike at home or refreshing a well‑ridden machine, this preload bolt is a simple way to restore precise suspension feel and reliability. Pair it with regular suspension maintenance to keep your bike riding smoothly and confidently in all conditions.
