    Rise H15 with no LBS or Levo alloy with LBS

    I'm torn between these two and need some help to decide. 1) Rise H15 for 6000$ but the closest LBS is 1000km away or 2) Levo alloy comp for 8000$ and with a LBS 2km away If I had an Orbea dealer at home I'd definitely go for the H15. How much of a dealbreaker is it that the closest Orbea LBS is...

    Levo Gen 3 2022 Levo Comp alloy

    Is it correct that the 2022 Levo Comp alloy weighs 24kg (without pedals)? What does the 700Wh battery weigh? And can one retrofit the TCU mastermind on the bike (it seems to be delivered with the simpler 10 ledbar display)?

    Orbea Rise H15 stock brakes, ok or not?

    We have 1000m vertical descents where I live but honestly, I do not ride more than 500m vertical before having a break. I weigh 75kg. Given this kind of riding, are the stock Rise H15 brakes (Deore 2-piston, 180mm rotors) up for it? On the rear, I'd say it's perfectly fine but on the front...

    Hi, new guy from Norway wondering about Orbea Rise

    I'm just ordering my first eMTB but have ridden MTB's for 25 years. I'm probably going for the new Orbea Rise H15 with the Shimano EP8 RS motor and 540Wh battery. Tips on sizing are much appreciated. I'm 187cm tall but have a negative ape index, my arm span is only 183cm. Should I have a L or...
