    When my wife was on a small 29” she said it felt that way too... what about 27.5” wheeled or mullet?

    My review of the amazing Rise M-Team

    My wife and I were just coming not the LBS when you were leaving that day! We ended up purchasing the XL M10 that they had in stock and my wife tried out the M10 medium they had from the rep... Getting her an ltd medium same color as yours as she is coming from an XC and the geo of the ltd is...

    Orbea Rise Size small for 5-foot (152cm) rider?

    My wife is 5’4” and has a long trunk, she test road an M10 medium and loved it and could stand over it with short legs... I had her Canyon LUX 8.0 with us which is a small as they run larger and she really like the Rise medium when switching back and forth between the two.

    RISE What profile do you use and power settings

    Profile 2 stock for now but listening to the reasons for tweaking and I might move eco up a little... this is my first ebike and for some reason I think I need to save the battery... in time I might get over that. Running w/other FF will probably get me over that.

    My Wife bought me an Orbea Rise last weekend!

    As it relates to the preload caps on the cranks, I need to make sure they stay snug? Is that what causes the breaks listed in the thirteen thread?

    Orbea Rise M10 First Look at the lightweight rocket ship!

    Swap the rear to a 27.5 and put a longer rear shock and I have heard up to 160 travel and then change the inner spring on the 36 to 160...

    Can I purchase an M10 for my wife and for the difference in price of the Ltd get same weight or better?

    So what I am thinking based on all this great data is that is if I can get an M10 or an Ltd by or before July and am still probably better off going with the M10 because I am hearing I can do better than the on wheels from a weight to quality ratio and then see how it goes from there... my wife...

    Rise Up - What are your upgrades?

    I just know that when I showed the rep I moved it to the back he specifically commented that they worked w/Maxxis on it.

    Can I purchase an M10 for my wife and for the difference in price of the Ltd get same weight or better?

    It is all about us riding together for sure! Yet my wife has taken that XC down Sugar Mountain in NC which is a chair lift bike park but in the mountains it is wise for her to have more travel as you say if she likes it.

    Can I purchase an M10 for my wife and for the difference in price of the Ltd get same weight or better?

    She loves the Rise that she demoed which is an M10 and she has this thing about Treks... and from my point if she and I have essentially the same bike it is way easier for me to maintain them... All this wealth of information is what I intend to use to purchase the M10 and put the right upgrades...

    Can I purchase an M10 for my wife and for the difference in price of the Ltd get same weight or better?

    To be fair to my LBS they said they could change the travel on the 36 so not about reducing weight on their part
