    Orbea Rise , anyone seen one yet ?

    Many thanks, I can now see my total distance since getting the new bike and with a rough average of 10kph I can see I have done about 35hrs since I got the bike i.e. getting close to needing to do my lower leg service.

    I have the Garmin app on my watch so can see battery % etc. and also sync to Strava but want to see the actual totals for the motor, not just tracking. I think that on the Shimano EP8 with the little screen, you can see this. I think maybe only way may be to ask dealer to plug in.

    Hi Rick, so do you need to connect the bike to a laptop with a special cable?

    I felt the rear end on my M10 was a bit harsh so put the larger volume spacer in and it was better. I then added Cush Core Pro to the rear and its a different bike, absolutely awesome. I am 80kg and running 21psi in the rear, feels bottomless. So impressed I am fitting a Cush Core XC to the...

    Yes, I just got told by my Orbea dealer today that Orbea have issued a concern over the torque applied to the cranks in the factory so I will pop past this weekend for them to check.

    Hi Phil, I have used the Sea Sucker on my pano roof for 3yrs now with my regular 14kg bike and sometimes 2. I was apprehensive about using it for the Rise but had it out about 10 times now without any issues. My car is a Mercedes E class coupe so not very high roof and easy to lift the bike on...

    Hi Chris, that was in Profile 2. I have not tried Profile 1 yet as only been out with the FF boys so far.

    Orbea Rise , anyone seen one yet ?

    Just had my first proper ride on my M10. Went out with 2 friends, one on SC Bullitt with EP8 and other on Cannondale Moterra with Bosch Gen 4, both 630wh batteries. The 2 guys I was with are both heavier than me by 10-15kg and not as fit. We rode 23.63k with 843m elevation gain in 2hrs 39mins...

    Orbea Rise , anyone seen one yet ?

    Really good to know thanks. I’m hoping it’s as capable as the Occam as the reviews on it show its good for some pretty hard riding. My local trails are all natural and more enduro than trail I.e. a lot of rock and the odd very steep slab but it’s all tight/techy and not fast so think the Rise...

    Orbea Rise , anyone seen one yet ?

    I feel for you. Unbelievably mine came forward by 5 months even though it was a MyO special order. Should have been June delivery but came this week! Originally I had a Wild on order for March delivery but the day the Rise came out I told the shop to cancel the Wild and get me a Rise as it...

    Orbea Rise Ship Dates Slipping?

    It was through MyO and no idea why it jumped forward by 5 months! It’s Matt black with deep red logos. I also got deep red on the links but think maybe black would have been better. I’ve not seen it in the flesh yet as we are snowed in and lockdown. It’s getting Invisiframed at the weekend then...

    Orbea Rise Ship Dates Slipping?

    I feel for you. I had a Wild on order for March delivery but the day the Rise came out I told the shop to cancel the Wild and get me a Rise as it seemed perfect. They kindly kept both on order as told me they could cancel right up to the paint job so I checked on dates each week and they moved...

    Orbea Rise Ship Dates Slipping?

    Bike shop called today and I had misunderstood. Orbea were waiting to see how shipments would be affected by Brexit and did some test runs. My bike has now shipped and due end of next week. Still not sure how my custom order jumped forward 5 months but happy days!

    Orbea Rise Ship Dates Slipping?

    I ordered a custom M10 the day of release through my local Orbea dealer and was given a June delivery date. Last week out of the blue I was told the bike had shipped but it’s now stuck in customs because of Brexit issues. I’ve no idea how it came forward 5 months, must have been a cancellation...
