I would personally push you to the Rise without a doubt but Frankyspec is right, you should find a place that can broker you actually getting on a Rise first… call a dealer who sells them and ask them if they have sold one to anybody or if their Orbea sales rep can be at the shop with one for...

Better value for your money and more power = Rise

Ever since I did this a few years back I have been wearing the TLD Stage.. it fits great, comes with three sets of pads to fit just right and you can purchase replacement parts for the liners… and I am turning 60 this year

Very good point, this is a short term scenario…

Like everything, it depends… I do a lot of my riding with my wife so if I were to ride hers she would not be riding with me… but I had a time when mine was down for warranty work and I rode my analog while she road her ebike in eco/trail mode.. prices are always lower at year end… the only risk...

I believe that is the same geo as the Rise

I had very good response from Orbea when my crank arm shaft broke off… total down time was less than a month and maybe it was 3 weeks. That was with my LBS which was not where I purchased the bike as well. And warranty pets were shipping directly from Orbea in Spain to me in the US as a part of...

Both my wife and I have Rise’ but hers is the M-Team and mine is the M10… we ride together on mostly blue and some black trails and she runs in trail or boost while I ride in eco or trail and she stays with me very good. She is even starting to catch some air on some of the table tops… as we...

You don't actually need two tags... just the empty holder out in the open:)

I sold my Kona Process 153 when I got my Rise M10 because they were almost the same weight and geometry… that was a little over a year ago but my wife kept her bike (Canyon Lux, 23 lbs. XC) and has a Rise M-Team so very different… I just bought a Norco Fluid and used a bunch of parts I took off...

This is one of the reasons that the Orbea Rise does so well… smaller w/option for a second.

My wife and I own and really enjoy light weight ebikes. I am currently w/o my ebike as the spindle broke and in warranty limbo so riding my new analog bike… I can do everything with it that I can with the ebike only slower. When you go slower the ride becomes more technical and you get to...

59, Florida and North Carolina, Orbea Rise M10, wife has the M-Team, have never taken the time to take pictures so much but I want to be like Dave 80 when I grow up! I still occasionally ride my analog Specialized hard tail in the flats of Florida.

I don’t know what an avocado has to do with it but that is a part of it for sure... new trails, new larger pedals, new bike, sag setting, getting older and eyes not quite as sharp as they use to be ?

I was striking the pedal a lot and then I reduced the sag in my rear shock and problem solved... I strike less now on my ebike than I do on my analog.

The only thing I noticed was a little reduction in chatter/vibration when going down hill.

The original question about SL vs Rise on steep technical in my mind between these two is more about the climb than the downhill and therefore I chose the Rise due to twice the available torque and it would have been a way more difficult choice for me is the SL had the same power.

I had just purchased a Dominion DHF 2.5” and on the very first ride on Pinhoti 3 and then 2 and put a hole in the side wall... my LBS offered cushcore which requires special valve stems as I put them on my wife’s bike and she loves the feel of them... but I did not want that much weight and did...
