    Excuse my ignorance.

    Bike maintenance and understanding of components isn’t a strong point of mine. Just got a 2022 Rise M10 and looking to change up to 4 pot brakes. Do I need to just swap out the calipers or does it need a whole brake set? Thanks folks.

    2022 Rise M20 incoming. Tips and advice welcome.

    So I’ve ordered a 2022 Rise M20 from my employers Cycle to Work Scheme provider (no idea how they still have stock from 2022).. This will be my first e-bike and I’d love to hear some tips from owners or about any potential issues I should look out for. Money is a bit tight so I’m not looking to...

    Any reason I shouldn’t buy an Orbea Rise?

    Looking at getting the aforementioned bike. Not keen on the look or weight of full fat e-bikes. My LBS is an Orbea stockist but even without that I like the look of it and the battery (with range extender) and EP8 rs motor are just right for me. I’d go for the M20 model and swap the Fox 34 for...
