    Rise Up - What are your upgrades?

    You're running a Cascade link along with the offset bushing and a longer shock? How much rear travel does that give? I know the link bumps it up to 150mm and just running the offset bushing with the longer shock would give the Rise a 160mm? So what's the travel with both of those?

    Orbea Wild FS (2022) - Coil Shock Fitment

    I'm run a DHX2 and EXT eStoria in my 2022 Orbea Wild, I also know that a Rockshox Super deluxe coil fit and both the Fox X2 and Float X fit. I had a Cascade Components link on my old Wild, take a look at that as a nice upgrade. Bumped the travel up to 165mm and was more progressive and gave the...

    What short cranks are you using for the Orbea Wild.

    This is extremely common for e13 cranks, it's so common I'm not sure why OEM's keep using them.

    Possible frame crack below the frame where the seat post sits

    That's great news for you, the carbon frames have been pretty rock solid.

    What short cranks are you using for the Orbea Wild.

    Before or after they snap?......lol All kidding aside, I would think they've fixed their production issues that was causing their cranks to snap.

    What short cranks are you using for the Orbea Wild.

    I switched out the stock cranks for RaceFace 160mm and had those for about 6 months and then got some Hope 155mm cranks before selling the bike.

    Had the same issue on my 2022 Wild with the stock E-13 cranks, replaced them with RaceFace cranks and issue went away.

    2023 Orbea wild H series weights?.

    I'm fully aware of that, but how do I know you didn't put pedals on it when you weighed it? We usually throw some pedals on the bikes we put on our showroom floor. I mean you're not going to ride it without pedals so why weigh it without pedals.

    Doesn’t mean anything if they didn’t change the manufacturing process. Do you even know what was causing the frames to crack? Because they all cracked in the same spot mine did and if they have changed how the welding the frame on the seat tube just above the motor I can see it happening again...

    I’d be concerned too if they haven’t done anything to fix the issues they had on the older frame. The amount of frame failures was rather alarming.

    2023 Orbea Wild paint/quality issues

    You do realize that if you don't order a custom paint job Orbea does all of the frames in a half gloss half matte look right? If you wanted it to look gloss even though you didn't order it that way you could get a Ride Wrap tailored kit in gloss and that'll make it look gloss. Looking at your...

    That's a really low stack with no stem spacers, do you prefer to have it setup like that or did the bike ship like that?

    One less aluminum ring on the cassette to wear out.

    2023 Orbea Wild paint/quality issues

    I own a 2022 Red wine carbon frame and that frame is flawless and gorgeous. I’ve also personally assembled and built about six other 2022 Wild frames. All were great, so this has me wondering WTH is going on with these 2023 frames.

    You're better off with the SLX cassette, the SLX shifter would kind of piss me off though.

    Brose is better than Bosch up and down the mountain?.....lol Not a chance, the only people that think that are probably still owners of Specialized bikes with Brose motors....lol Sorry but I know too many that have switches from Brose to Bosch and have said they'd never go back. Regardless of...
