Beyblade X Orb Bit Guide
Orb Bit, officially abbreviated "O", is a Stamina-type Bit in Takara Tomy's Beyblade X line, part of the Xtreme Gear Sports Basic Line under product code BX-16-01. It stands 29.7 mm tall, weighs roughly 2 g, and first released on October 7, 2023 inside BX-16-01 Random Booster Viper Tail Select as the Viper Tail 5-80O combo. It later reappeared in BX-27-03 Random Booster Sphynx Cowl Select as Sphynx Cowl 5-60O, and a shorter variant, Low Orb, has also been sold as its own release.
Design and official stats
Orb Bit uses a small, ball-shaped tip that visually echoes the earlier Ball (B) Bit, but its contact surface has a noticeably smaller diameter. That narrower point of contact cuts down on lateral movement, so combos built around it tend to plant themselves near the stadium centre instead of roaming the dish the way a wider or more mobile Bit would. The published stat block reflects that trade-off: Attack 10, Defense 30, Stamina 50, Dash 10, and Burst Resistance 30 — a profile weighted almost entirely toward stamina retention rather than speed or knockout power.
Where it fits in a build
Because it holds its ground and spins for a long time, Orb Bit is generally considered a must-have for anyone assembling a stamina-focused collection, and it's a common reference point in stamina-combo discussions. The catch is knockout resistance: its small-diameter base gives it a smaller stabilizing footprint than the Ball Bit, so despite the strong stamina number, players usually rate it as inferior to Ball for staying inside the stadium under contact. In practice that makes it a better fit for stamina-survival formats and endurance testing than for setups expecting to trade hits.
These specifications come from Beyblade X reference sources (beyblade.wiki and a corroborating community database) rather than an official Takara Tomy or Hasbro product page we were able to access directly, so treat the exact numbers as well-sourced but not primary-source confirmed. If you're prepping for a sanctioned event, check the current part list and packaging against what the organiser allows before you build around it.
