    Anybody knows what chainring tool is required for Orbea Rise M10?

    The crankset is a e*thirteen e*spec Direct Mount 32T Boost but it's not clear if I need a E*THIRTEEN tool bottom bracket (item 15637) or one of Shimano's chainring tools (TL-FC41 or TL-FC39), or Park LR-T2? It may be specific to Rises as the space in there is narrow due to the E*thirteen...

    Orbea Rise , anyone seen one yet ?

    I'm getting more and more impatient with the Orbea production... first they said June, then July, then August, and now possibly not even August production (waiting for parts from suppliers). Arrrrgh!!

    Rise Up - What are your upgrades?

    good thread! Expensive, but good for excellent ideas. My Orbea M10 will arrive soon (promised in June by MTBMonster), and I plan to get a few things but I also have a few questions for you modders: Tyres: what’s wrong with the current set? Why is everybody swapping the front to rear and getting...

    Damn! I ordered 2 days ago from MTBMonster, they say they’ll have stock in June. Well.. considering financing etc, I guess I’m stuck with the few weeks wait :) Edit: I actually ordered the M10 not the M-team

    Cube Stereo with Sram NX Eagle™ Trigger - shifting down is kind of limp?

    The mechanic could not find anything wrong with it, the shifter is set up properly, tensioned correctly, it shifts as it should. He looked inside the lever housing but nothing's wrong there. I guess I have to raise it with Cube support.

    Cube Stereo with Sram NX Eagle™ Trigger - shifting down is kind of limp?

    Hi, when shifting "down" (i.e. for easier gearing) the lever goes all the way to the end, shifts OK, then stays there instead of returning to its neutral position. I have to push it back, which is a bit annoying. Do you have any ideas how to fix? The bike is with my mechanic for a 150mile...
