Google says that 360 battery weighs ~1.9kg, 540 battery weighs ~2.7kgI bought a new rise m10 with a 360 battery but got the 540. Should i get the battery swapped? Or keep it? How much is the difference In handling? Thats my concern.
Only you know your riding conditions so only you can decide whether an extra 0.8kg of weight on the front will matter or not.Feeling sluggish, Harder to lift front end.

I got the same answer from Orbea and from the dealer, but it did not make sense since the weight was about 19,5kg without pedals. The only way to confirm if it's a 360 or 540 was to make them actually open it and look. Turns out it actually was installed with 540 battery. So obviously something went wrong in the factory. Now I don't know if I want to change to 360 or keep the larger battery. Is there a handling difference? Have been out for several runs with the 540 and never been below 50% battery life at the end.Update - I contacted Orbea directly with the bike serial number and they confirmed that it was assembled with a 360 battery and suggested the Shimano etube app may have a bug. I replied asking what the weight should be and they said that they don’t publish the weights! I took the bike out today on the road and covered 11 miles using mixed modes, 1600 feet elevation and still had 80% of battery left (no range extender) so I’m happy with that although I’m still a bit disappointed with the weight.
