I have a 2023 Orbea Rise M10. Came with e*thirteen e*spec Direct mount 32T boost has 1600 miles in it. Beat up from rocks and tree limbs (Orbea nor anyone else offer a bash guard) and still going strong. I am sure there are lots of options but this one has held up well.
Update….bought the park chain measuring tool and let’s just say after 1600 miles the chain was out of tolerance 🤣😂🤪 biggest gap from normal is 1.0. If it could go higher it would have. Oppps. So bought a Shimano m9100 replacements at my local bike shop. Was going to get it on Amazon but...
My son who has all sram components reacted the same way (WTF DO YOU KNOW WHAT THE COST IS OF A CASSETTE) on the cassette swaps. So what’s the the answer here? If you start skipping the better be switching. 🤣. I did order a park tool for measuring chain stretch after all this feedback, $24...
That is good to know. I added the Deore xt derailleur and love it. I haven’t priced out the cassette I thought it was a lot more expensive. I do like the 2 chain rotation suggestion.
Hey Peeps. Happy owner of 2023 Orbea Rise with 1500 miles on the beast. I know there are lots of variables that go into this question besides grinding miles but I am curious if there is a rule of thumb as to when to replace the chain and chainring on an ebike. I imagine with the torque from...
I lived in westerly years ago nice closed knit community. However it’s changed a lot, big box stores a lot more crowded these days. As everywhere real estate has gone nuts. Try Charlestown, next town over a bit more remote but property taxes lowest in the state. Check the NEMBA site for...
Purchased my Orbea rise M10 9/23. Was always a road biker went all in just based on research, no test rides and no regrets. Big for me was its hard to tell it’s an ebike and weight. I did change out a few things, went to 203 disc brakes rotor, changed the seat and added Deore Di2 derailer. As...
Hey everyone thanks for all the info. For my first bleed I followed the Park tool video which was start at the caliper and push the fluid to the handle reservoir and attached cup then reverse that from the reservoirs, pump the lever and bleed at the caliper. Messy part is when I did a dumb ass...
Hi Rod thanks so much for the info much appreciated. One of our peeps suggested a gravity bleed which seemed a bit easier. Curious as to your thoughts on this method.
I converted my 2023 Orbea Rise to
hi I converted my 2023 Orbea rise to the di2 connected to the Shimano 801. Mine is a 12 speed so it doesn’t support full auto shift as does the 11 speed cassette, not sure why Shimano has not figured out how to modify the software for a 12 speed. I have been...
Thanks again for this pointing me to this process for the break bleed. Tried it on another bike and it was much better and easier than fumbling around with the syringes.
That’s pretty much the procedure I followed. It was just a bit messier than I expected. Maybe I won’t have to 2 or 3 beers before hand 😂🍻. Just kidding on the beer part but after it’s done all bets are off.
