Orbea Rise 2022 upgrades

[swain5world]

Hi all,

Looking to continue upgrading my 2022 Rise. I‘ve not long put new brakes on (4-piston XT, 203me up front, 180mm at back), and I’m thinking about a new fork now.

i saw an ebike optimised fox 36 kashima with 160mm travel, but I was wondering a; what offset do I need, and b; could I shorten the fpro to 140-150mm as I love the current geometry of the Rise.

Are there any other upgrades people would recommend?

Thanks in advance!

i changed the saddle before it even left the bike shop... a couple rides in i realized those brakes needed upgrading to 4 piston. How they spec a trail-bike with those original brakes is almost a dereliction of duty!!

The bomber fork is doing its job. 2 years in ive not had much to complain about... im not one for spending heaps upgrading, for me i'd rather spend the bucks doing a trip away riding..each to their own.
