Hey,
I've had my Orbea Rise since 2024, I switched out the Fox DPX2 for a Rockshox Super Deluxe Coil within a few months - as I ran them on my Evil Following and Insurgent and loved them.
I do find I'm getting through top bushings pretty quick. And the back end feels and looks Flexy if I give it a good lateral push and pull.
Everything is all tight, I've done the pivot bearings, I'm assuming it's just that the design of the Rise, with the sideways yoke, is one that is inherently Flexy and will always side load the top bushing - so it's kinda a sacrificial part as the price for having a coil shock.
I'd love to get a needle bearing in there, but I can't get the size.
Is that everyone elses experience for running a coil on their Rise?
