    I'm starting to regret getting my Orbea Rise...

    Damn that sucks. I have had zero issues with my ‘22 H15.

    Orbea 2023 Rise M10 profile factory reset

    Also go through both profiles 1 and 2. I think the defaults on profile 2 are set higher. Profile 1 trail: Profile 1 boost:

    Orbea 2023 Rise M10 profile factory reset

    Just go to the trail and boost screens. The default will be white dots on those too.

    Orbea 2023 Rise M10 profile factory reset

    In my E-TUBE app the default settings show as a white dot on the settings bars. The below picture is profile 1 Eco. The white dots on the far left of assist and torque bars are the default settings.

    Sharing 2023 Orbea Rise M-Team Rear Fender Setup

    I’ve been thinking of using the mucky nutz short by itself on the rear, to protect the linkage and charge port. How do you have it facing, long or shorter end forward?

    Rail to Rise ?

    I haven’t changed much. I dropped down to a 35 mm stem and put on the alloy Renthal 35 mm rise bars from my Rail. I was going to upgrade to carbon bars but I’m happy with the ride and weight of the Renthals. I did have to get a shorter dropper. The 170 that came with the XL was too long. I went...

    Orbea Rise Carbon Battery Life- help needed

    I’ve got an ‘22 H15 with the 540 wh battery. I typically ride 10 to 20 miles but only a few hundred feet of climbing (flat here in lower Alabama). I’ll usually have over 50% charge left. If I got a ‘23 I’d get the 360, possibly with a range extender for trips to the mountains.

    Which one did you order?

    Rail to Rise ?

    That’s exactly the route I went. I like the Rise so much better. The Rise fits me way better than the Rail did and the lower weight and geo make it feel like a normal mountain bike, just with extra power.

    Can you replace a 35mm bar with a 31.8?

    I used these last year to install a set of Renthal 31.8 bars I already had on my 35mm stem to get more rise. It was only going to be temporary but really like the way the bars ride so have left them on. I haven’t had any issues. YMMV

    Newbie in Western North Carolina

    I’m sure there’s a lot of that going on. There is no reason e-bikes should not be allowed in pisgah. They cause no more trail damage than acoustic bikes. I have seen horses absolutely destroy trails in GF district. After 9 years in flat lower Alabama. I’d need some assist to ride anything in wnc. 😂

    Newbie in Western North Carolina

    I lived and mtn biked in WNC many years ago (Asheville then Boone). It appears there is almost nowhere up there that allows e-bikes. If I were still there I’d get a trek ex-e or a pivot shuttle SL, something silent with a small inconspicuous motor. When I was there you would rarely run into...

    H15 Brakes Upgrades,

    Interesting idea. So you’re running 203 rotor and 4 piston brake up front and 180, 2 piston on the back?
