    Orbea Rise M10 2021 new motor

    interesting. My M10 rise is now having speed sensor errors and has been cutting out on steep climbs and heavy loads. I just ordered a replacement speed sensor, unfortunately there are none in stock at shimano US or in the states, so I had to order it from the UK. I assume you had W10100...

    Is my bike to small? Need advice. Rise L 6'1 90kg

    you're on the right path. I am 6'2" on an XL rise. Typically, my preferred reach is about 485-490. The XL feels long/big when in full 29 due to the reach and the length of the seat tube. I too noted a feeling of the front end tucking on high speed berms and awkward sections. I have since...

    Orbea rise mullet—without swapping shock

    which offset bushing you need requires you to know what shock you want to use. I have a dhx2, so i have the offset bushing in the yoke side of the shock. If I were to put it on the top tube side of the shock, the shoulders of the top eyelet area of the shock would contact the frame. That...

    Orbea rise mullet—without swapping shock

    It has more to do with the gyroscopic effect delta of the larger front wheel vs smaller rear which seems to make it easier to initiate a rotation of the bike. This obviously helps knifing corners and bringing the rear end around. Sometimes, 29rs can feel so locked in that it can feel like the...

    Orbea Rise weight - not what I expected!

    weight is accurate. My wife's medium m20 was right at 40lbs once I did carbon bars, real tires (dhr2/dissector), 1700g wheels, GX eagle and wtb titanium saddle. The m10's fox float X shock and 36 add quite a bit of weight. My XL m20... started life at 43lbs and is now at 47lbs. Which now...

    2023 Orbea Wild paint/quality issues

    The paint on my rise is not the greatest quality job, but it is no where near that bad. I've had plenty of bikes with mediocre factory paint jobs over the years. I'm the kind of person that as long as i don't start seeing imperfections when looking at it from standing height (eyes 50-75cm away...

    How dumb can these "smart chargers" be? I have a 2022 Hydro Smart Charger 42V and I've been having an issue with the "smart" charger.

    use a timer to charge your bike... both problems get fixed in one shot and you do not have an ac to dc transformer plugged in 24/7 consuming power and being a potential electrical hazard. There is indeed a difference between something that turns on/off and is ac/ac current vs something that is...

    Levo Gen 3 Turbo Levo Cassette Damage - Pretty Disappointed

    I have a buddy that is notorious in our riding group for shifting with no mechanical empathy... he also does not regularly check his b-tension nor his indexing. He's the only person that I've ever seen, or heard of doing this to his cassette. As others have stated, this is a reality of not...

    Is it just me or is the seat tube oddly long on the Rise?

    Orbea Rise and Sram Transmission. Compatibility?

    Bikes are designed on 2-3 year timelines. they are not sold into shimano only, sram is continuing to produce axs so you still have a sram drivetrain available. Sram laid out plenty of runway for brands to move to UDH and had enough indications that this was coming, and some brands took the...

    what specs do i need for a sporcket on a Rise with the shimano spider gear?

    With all due respect, I don't actually misunderstand you. You have a 104bcd 30t chainring bolted on backwards. In order to have a 30t - 104bcd chainring, the chainring needs to be threaded to accept the crank/chainring bolts. This is because if you do not, the chain does not have the...

    Öhlins TTX1 or TTX2 and up the travel to 150 on my rise m-team

    It depends on what your priorities are. I am very sensitive to bb height on my bikes. I would almost never... sacrifice bb height (and by extension static and dynamic f/r weight balance) for more travel. If I have the opportunity to get more travel without changing the bb height, then I'm...

    Öhlins TTX1 or TTX2 and up the travel to 150 on my rise m-team

    dvo topaz and rs monarch are the only "modern" (ish) air shocks that are sold in 8.5x2.5. I too would love to run an 8.5x2.5 but with an air shock... but I am not a fan of either of the air shocks that are available in that size. I've owned both of those shocks on previous bikes. A monarch...

    what specs do i need for a sporcket on a Rise with the shimano spider gear?

    I run the shimano spider and stock shimano 34t chainring that comes with it. I have a funn brand chain guide that "works" with it, but it's a zero tolerance fit between the crank, chainstay/pivot, spider, chainring, guide and chain. Not surprise that a 30t would not fit... 30t chainrings on...

    Rise rear travel

    @iJak In your photo of your shock/frame you are not compressing the bump stop. Your shock will compress a minimum of 7mm further then what you are showing on a hard bottom out... likely more like 10-13mm. Keep in mind, this is shock travel numbers so you multiply by roughly 2 - 2.5 in order to...

    Rise rear travel

    I do not know for sure... on my XL it would clear but i would be concerned about frame flex. That being said, all DNM products are absolute trash. I am 1000% certain that the stock shock, in stock travel will perform better then anything from DNM. to that end, you are far better off with a...
