    It's here! 2022 Orbea Rise H15

    Interesting, I have reserve 30s and thought their stiffness is what made me bodice the rise back end flex.

    Rise Hydro Stiffness (or lack of)

    The rise occupies a weird space that doesn't have too much other competition. I'm always weary when a bike touts how light it is be uase that takes compromise. Levo sl geo didn't work for me and trek rail and marin were on my short list but I didn't want full fat weight. I can live with a...

    Rise Hydro Stiffness (or lack of)

    Definitely the bike. There is no play at any of the pivots, just a flexy frame and rear links.

    Rise Hydro Stiffness (or lack of)

    The part that kills me is when shifting up, it's like the whole bike wiggles.

    Rise Hydro Stiffness (or lack of)

    Haha yup. 20/24 same wheels and tires as previous bike. 2 more psi in the back after pink flats at 22psi rear.

    Rise Hydro Stiffness (or lack of)

    I have been looking at it and shacking it more and think it's just an unfortunate side effect of the motor. There really isn't much material in the frame where the chainstay meets the seat tube meets the downtube. Just the little but oc C shape that bolts to the motor case and that's just not...

    Rise Hydro Stiffness (or lack of)

    If I hit the chainstay from the side with my hand the whole bike kind of vibrates. Checked pivots and everything is tight, just a floppy bike. I didn't see the bike before I bought it and the first time I took the rear wheel off and saw the drop outs I thought it was designed to save weight not...

    Rise Hydro Stiffness (or lack of)

    Thanks for the feedback. At least i know I'm not going crazzy. I will just live with it. I am pulling the rear apart since I have a creak after 100 miles but I guess i have to accept that this is a trail bike that I am upgrading and riding beyond its original intentions.

    Rise Hydro Stiffness (or lack of)

    It wasn't so evident until I rode my AF this weekend and it was rock solid by comparison

    Rise Hydro Stiffness (or lack of)

    Has anyone else noticed how floppy the back of this bike is? After about a month I am starting to get use to this bike and I am constantly stopping to check my tire isnt flat becuase it feels like the back end is all over the place. With the motor off (so only human torque) the back end feels...

    Orbea Rise Issue

    Can you just source a new ring yourself? I know it's money out of your pocket but gets you moving again.

    I used 3m tape. I am also going to make an extra bash guard section with kydex but it's not a priority yet.

    My 2022 Rise H30 Before and After weights

    To clarify, i wasnt complaining about the weight. It was to give some real world number for people asking. It will likely get a little heavier too when I start testing better rear shocks (Jade X and Mara Pro) and add a set of dominion A4 brakes.

    My 2022 Rise H30 Before and After weights

    It is a medium. When I weighed the front wheel with tubes it alone was 2 pounds heavier than my sc reserve, 203 ice tech, hellcat, combo. My guess is I saved 4 lbs with wheels and handlebar and just added it right back with fork, shock, and brakes.

    Orbea Rise H30 (L) - Weights, Upgrade + Cross Border Purchase (US>CDN)

    My medium H30 out of the box with tubes 2 days ago was 47lb even. Front wheel change to kenda EMC casing and reserve wheels was almost 2lbs alone. Its going to be a pretty beefy build but id be happy with 45lb. 40Lb sounds VERY aggressive and i would imagine an XC focused spec.
