    Quality review, as usual! This category of ebike makes me really excited about ebikes in general.
  • Thanks, very nice review. You have picked the right trail for Rise 10 as well. Easy, informative and to the point session. Ride on!
  • @onlysendsmtb
    Great review. One of the deciding factors in our purchase of a Pair of Rise, one H15 (fully up-kitted) and one H30.
  • @hoff482
    Thanks for the review. I have an M20, and I love it. I upgraded the tires and added inserts. I also had to upgrade my brakes. I went to Shimano Saint's. Now it corners just fine. 😎 I am right around the same weight, and I use all the travel in the shock even with a volume reducer. Thanks again looks like it's going to be the year of the light eMTB.
  • I have the h15 with the piggy back on rear shock and love it my first ebike .. at 52 years young.... as you have described my type of riding in this video to confirm i made the right choice (never ridden a full fat ebike).... one point for me been in the UK where speed is limited to 15.5 mph (25kph) ... when I am above that assist level I definitely would not want a heavier bike than this ... fantastic video keep up the great work 👍

    I own an H30 since January . Its my first FS ebike (was on a hardtail for 2 years) and its a great bike for me . Im an intermediate rider and i love my blues ! I went from the e8000 motor to the ep8 RS and im quite happy with the power . Overall a great bike!
  • @aknmtbr
    I went with the h15 and love it. It comes with the fox x reservoir shock and the orbea shop I bought it from put a 160 air spring in the 36. So it’s now a 160/140 bike. I then put on 203 front and rear rotor adapters and my ripmo wheel/tire set!
  • @TeamCykelhold
    It's the perfect bike for so many riders. An absolutely HUGE percentage of MTB riders does not live next to Whistler, and mellow terrain does not need a 63HTA fox 38 equipped bike. I do agree on the shock. I upgraded mine to a DVO Topaz since I don't like the DPS on any bike.
  • @AB-NZ
    I found this review really helpful….thank you! I had pondered this sort of bike as an option rather then the Levo Expert I have ordered. But where I ride with very long and steep forestry road climbs followed by some pretty janky sections with rocky corners and root fest descents , I think the Rise would be a little under gunned based on your descriptions. Ditto for the new Trek Fuel lightweight ebike I think. One of each type (full fat and a lightweight) would be perfect 😏🤔. Though I suspect “she who knows best and must be obeyed” might not agree.
  • @xav_1029
    160/160 M series for me and loving it.
  • @hodgestryan
    I’ve had an M20 for 18 months in Bentonville and it’s perfect for nearly everything we have. I’m a big fan of the light weight ebikes and for those with even a bit of fitness you’ll find it’s plenty of power.
  • @gingerb36
    I love my H15, when the suspension is up for a service I’ll up the travel to 160 on the 36 factory fork. The shock is the float x factory and it soaks everything up. It’s such a lively bike to ride, great job Orbea.
  • @chawkins45ify
    I think if Orbea did a rallon-e with the hydro rise setup they would have a winner, as long as the frame holds itself together without cracking.....
  • @thim8009
    I almost bought one. I was going to put a 170mm 38, float x2 with longer stroke. I think it's around 162 mm rear travel after you put a 27.5 wheel in the rear. The bottom bracket will be at original height when done. After looking at money invested into that project, I just bought a gen 3 levo. Anyway look up mtb Mike, he did that to his rise.
  • @jzdyrko
    I am one of the many who went w/ a long shock and a ton of upgrades. Fox Factory fixins w/ a DHX2 rear, Fox 38 160 up front. XT 4pots w/ MDR-P Rotors 220/203, RF Next-R Bars/ Turbine-R stem, Specialized Power Pro saddle, 210mm oneup dropper, SRAM X01 Drivetrain, XT 160mm Cranks, SC Reserve 30's wheels w/ hydra hubs and Scwalbe Magic Mary (f)/Eddy Current (r) 29x2.6 super gravity casing tires.
