DT M1900 rear (100 pounds) and front (85 pounds) on Wiggle: https://www.wiggle.com/p/dt-swiss-m-1900-rear-wheel?color=black&freehubBody=Shimano+HG&wheelSizeAxleSpacing=29%22+%7C+148mm+x+12mm+Axle%7C+Boost Would be fine for road riding.

I've got the same on my bikes. The newer rear mudhugger has an extra flap that extends forwards which is especially good on the Rise, protecting the charging port as well as bearings. (mudrocker looks effective too)

On r2-bike.com the 24 tooth is listed as being steel and about 60 grams heavier than the 36 tooth

Shimano isn't doing itself any favours by behaving like that - should just fix their own error.

I carry a personal beacon in case I get stuck and have no phone reception. Also carry a thermal blanket/bag which is lightweight and easy to stash in the backpack.

New site isn't as good as the old site but they still have good specials on fancy gear from time to time - I've bought DT Swiss wheels and Fox forks from them at less than half of normal street price. The DT HX1501 rear wheel recently went from the spares pile to the Orbea Rise after I realised...

All Chosen brand rear hubs on the Rise will fail - it's a known fault on the bikes. If you've got an unbranded hub it's a Chosen hub - the freehub metal slowly deforms over time. Other than the hub my Rise has been reliable.

Not my cup of tea but, live and let live, Peace Out.

That sucks Vidwiz but at least you had the skills to fix it. Have you dropped many motors before? Maybe post a pic of the fully assembled bike?

You could tell them to enquire with Shimano Japan. My dealer in Australia told me Shimano had okayed many Rise software upgrades to full EP8. I bought the Rise expecting that it could be changed to 85nm max torque. It's still not as powerful as a Bosch CX but it's perfect for bike park style...

My favourite reviewer, just the facts, nothing flashy, all delivered with a cool accent :)

Does I9 source their axles from Chosen :) or are you jumping all over the place like a juiced up billy goat?

It would probably be ok on a cheap supermarket bike that's not ridden much. It's more surprising to me that Orbea chose to use such a fragile looking hub on their bikes, even with the Shimano shortages. They should have issued a recall to have all of these hubs replaced.

Here's my hub after 119km, just starting to deform, now retired so it can't cause any problems. To unscrew the axle I put the 'spanner' side in a vice with two hex keys in the slots, then used two large screwdrivers on the slotted axle.

Unique looking bike, but the black and silver version looks pretty good.

Yeah it's barely worth disassembling but I'm curious to see what mine looks like. I had to order some other bits and pieces anyway so I've thrown away $22 for cone spanners.

What size is the cone spanner needed to disassemble the Chosen hub? I went looking for my 40 year old cone spanners but I may have thrown them out thinking I'd never need them again.

I haven't seen that type of guard before - I assumed you were one of the young'uns who prefer to be covered in mud rather than deface the bike :)

Looks like a new one Lee (y) They are a nice looking bike, although I notice you've lost half of your rear mudguard :)

I prefer centerlock but I've ended up with a mix because the 6 bolt specials were too good to pass up. How much to get the wheel rebuilt?
