No the chain guide will not fit with the 34t. Not a big problem you don't need the chain guide. Just try taking the guide off and see.

I am lucky enough to have been dealing with Berkshire Cycles for years and have bought 4 bikes from them over the years. They are main dealers for several brands and frequently will fix your bike while you wait. I went in for some warranty work on an Orbea rear hub motor and they fixed a broken...

Just an update as the original thread starter now with some experience of riding the Rise on mostly red UK trails. The 36 chainring suits me best and I find the original 32t a pain because riding a path between trails in trail mode you can end up spinning out on the flat. I have completely...

The oem chain guide only fits the ethirteen 32t. The larger rings foul the bolt heads of the oem guide because spacers are needed to get the correct chain line. I have ridden the 36t ethirteen ring for a couple of weeks probably 8 hours of moderate trails with no chain guide. I have no marking...

I have bought the ethirteen espec chain guide but you can't mount it on the Rise because it fouls the carbon frame where it overlaps the top of the Ep8 motor. I guess this why Orbea where forced to make a custom chain guide just for the Rise.

One last question. Can you use the ethirteen cranks with this spider?

Do you use a chain guide with this. If you do which one?

When you say replace the spider what bit are you replacing? The chainring are direct mount onto the Ep8 shaft.

I don't think there is anything with a smaller ring than 10 that fits on the Shimano micro spline hub. The friction and noise would be an issue anyway. The 36/51 gearing with boost means I can climb any slope I am likely to meet. Generally I find climbing is limited by traction and front wheel...

Another bit of information people might find interesting. The original Rise chain length worked with the 36 chainring. It should in theory need another link but it doesn't. So I now have a spare slx chain!

I have not had any issues since removing the guide. I have ridden some red UK trails with the XT rear derailleur clutch off (forgot to engage after putting the wheel on) with no problems.

There is an ethirteen 34 but it will have the same issue. The 32 is not a standard model (not even listed on the ethirteen site) and Orbea had it thinned down to clear the custom chain guide. There have been issues with the 32 breaking which is worrying. If you went for say XT cranks and...

Only about 2mm clear. Bit tight but it works OK.

I am using my Rise both at a local trail park and for more XC type rides. 32 front and 10 rear gearing was a bit restricting so decided to swap to 36 front chainring. The cranks and chainring on the rise are ethirteen. So emails them and they confirmed the e8000 chainring would fit. 36 tooth...
