Race Face 30ARC vs Orbea's OQUO MC32TEAM Wheels...

[jgf]

I'm configuring a 2025 Rise SL and wondering if anyone is familiar enough with Race Face 30ARC wheels vs Orbea's own OQUO MC32Team wheels to say whether the significant cost differential (+ $560) is worth it.

Thoughts?

I am in the same situation as you, i also have doubts regarding the hub, I think that the MC32 Team have the standard DT350 hub, which isn't designed for e-mtb, really strange that they are not using the Hybrid hub since the Rise is now full power with 85 Nm of torque....

DT350's are more than capable of standing up to eMTB loads, with a 36T ring. DT advises against the 54 for eMTB applications, or at least they did when I spoke with their techs.
