Buggbairn, The Orbea Rise uses the Shimano EW-SS301 speed sensor pickup. I checked Shimano's compatibility chart for the EW-SS301 speed sensor unit. I've highlighted the Rise's EW-SS301 speed sensor unit in light blue. Below the EW-SS301 speed sensor are all of the brake components which are...

Did the the magnetic locking ring come installed on your Rise M20?

BuggBairn, I've attached answers to your questions. I hope this helps. Question: I ended up buying 203mm MT-800 rotors, I was a bit confused about the magnet on the rear, I believe the one I have purchased has the magnet attached to the lockring. I hope the ones I have bought are compatible...

Buggbairn, I did a three part series on Shimano brakes, including Part # 2 which covers brake modifications on the Orbea Rise. The tech article cover's everything you need to know in regards to modify the brakes on your Rise M20. The article will answer your questions...

Many of the bikes, including my Rise were assembled at the factory with the the threaded portion of the upper axle installed towards the non-drive side. I don't see how it really matters one way or the other, however the Rise Blue Paper is calling for the threaded portion to face the drive side...

Giff, The cassette looks okay to me, I don't see any broken teeth in the pictures. I have a SRAM AXS derailleur also. Occasionally, I've accidentally I've hit the micro shift adjustment button located on the shift pod or had a rock kick up and hit the derailleur arm. This causes the...

Chris, There are three methods for raising the handlebar height on your bike. 1) Raise the stem height using stem/headset spacers. 2) Purchase a stem with a higher degree of stem angle/rise. 3) Purchase a higher "Rise" handlebar. 1) Headset/Stem Spacer Adjustment. Changing the bar height on...

Rusty...brakes are way over rated.....Jus sayin.... Rusty (Heckler), a few friends and I on our Rises, riding the Zen and Barrel trails, Saint George Utah. I've met a lot of awesome people such as Rusty on this forum. I live in Orange County, but like to travel a lot and ride new trails. If...

Here's a YouTube video showing the Deore CS-M5100 with the loose cog issue you are describing. Your cassette may still be under warranty.

Brother, I’m glad it all worked out for you. There has to be a bug in the system update. When I first read your post, I knew you had the same problem I encountered. I haven’t had another issue since. The next trick is fine tuning the settings to get the right balance of power and range.

A few months after owning my Rise, I did a firmware update. Something in the update skewed my Rise’s settings. The “Assist Character” settings were lowered to almost zero. Other settings were also changed. I didn’t notice the changes. The Assist character change caused the motor not to engage...

Alex and Steve you are correct. A small lip will sometimes form on the very edge of the rotor. If a lip has formed it will throw off your Vernier caliper measurement by making the rotor thickness seem larger. In this type of situation, a micrometer is a much more accurate tool for taking a...

After submitting Part # 1 and Part # 2 of the tech series on Shimano brakes, I realized I had not included anything on checking your Shimano brake rotor for minimum thickness or signs of uneven rotor wear. You can review Part # 1 and Part # 2 in the series here...

I've added a Deore XT brake lever to my post above. When you look closely at the Deore, SLX and XT, you can see that the axle pin on the Deore lever is located in a different position than on the SLX and XT brake lever body. I'm guessing this alters the piston actuating cam design/size on the...

Hell yes...

Funks, Thank you for the heads up. I made corrections to Part # 2 of the Shimano Brake tech post above to reflect the fact that the Marzoochi Bomber Z2 has 160mm post mounts. For those interested, here is a screen capture from Orbea's website for the H30. If you looking closely you can see it...

Baja Norte, Mexico

Longfellow78, When I first got my Rise, it did the same thing in regards to no power when dropping back down from Boost to Trail or Eco. I discovered that the factory power/assist settings were not correct. After I changed motor settings via the eTube app, everything worked fine. I'm attaching...

Thunder Mountain Trail, near Bryce Canyon, Utah

I've yet to use the tool but I will be ordering one. I think the Avid piston tool should work with your calipers. The tool concept is the same regardless if you have a two or four piston Hope, Avid, SRAM or Shimano calipers. The issue is that when you squeeze the brake lever to advance the...
