Hi guys this is my first post on here
Thought I had to join the E bike community
I was one of those guys who said that’s not me it’s cheating that.
But it’s not cheating is it, why knacker yourself out.
Saving more energy for the downhill stuff?
Got a orbea rise arriving next week
Can’t wait ?

Welcome, Karl,

You will knacker yourself out - just at a quicker speed, over a longer distance! :)

How the hell did you get a Rise? When did you order it and from where?

Mine is due July (sometime)...

ive had a few upgrades they are putting on so it may delay a few days .

Only ordered in April but also from MTB Monster as they are only 30 minutes away and I pass them on the way to Gisburn. To be honest I could have walked out of Leisure Lakes with an M20 (wrong colour) or ordered from Bikester but I wanted an LBS I could walk it into just in case.

I'm in no rush having the Merida anyway but would be nice to get it sooner! I'm on their (MTB Monster) July stock drop...

Enjoy yours, post some pics! I'm in no way jealous, you understand! ;)

hoping someone on here can help me with the issue


Troubleshooting over the interwebs ain't as easy as it looks...

Plan A: Check all the connections, making sure they're correct and solid.

Plan B: Download eTube app and pair it to your bike. Use eTube to display faults.
