2023 Orbea Rise Review

Awesome review. Sharp, to the point, conscise. Love it. Im on the earlier Rise M20 and you have saved my day, and my bank balance, as I dont run out of battery, whew. I bought mine used at 1/2 retail for the 021 model. I would never spring AUD15k for a pushbike, that is motorbike money.

LOVE my Rise. Built up AM style…150/160 with heavier duty parts. Got range extender for bigger days. Small battery is fine for my daily rides.

Love my 2021 m10 rise. My two biggest issues were range and the links on suspension. Looks like a great update

This is the bike I want to purchase for my wife to get her up on the trails again. She has a bulged disc that gets aggravated when pedaling up hill (she can play tennis totally fine, it's sitting and climbing). I just wish the prices weren't more than a moto, but I get the current stupid bike market, I just don't like it. Sweet looking bike, they certainly have made it better. Thanks Conner!

First! I miss having bikers edge as the local shop since I moved

I am loving the feel of the Alu frame on my 2022 RISE H15, with the right brakes & tires (to choose from the options) makes it a a solid playful capable bike

Still love my Rise but if I were to get a new bike I thing it would be one with the new Pinion MGU. For me a sealed motor/gearbox is next-gen ebike. That would be what it would take to warrant an upgrade.

Not to forget that if you get the range extender you get a monster battery basically 800 wh without much of a weight penalty allowing you to basically do almost every ride on turbo mode!

Good video . How is the sitting position? Is it also suitable for longer journeys?

Was considering the new Rise but ended up going Trek Fuel EXe because I couldn't find any Rises to demo!

Thanks for the review! How many miles were you able to get on your ride? How much does it weight? I have the Alum version (H20 Hydro), and can Ascend 12 Miles/5000 FT with 2-3 Bars left. I weight 165Lbs and in average shape. I also ride with the power off with when riding with my non electric riding group - its very rid. Is the Carbon worth the extra money v.s. the Aluminum?

Would you prefer the Rise or the Wild when you sometimes also do longer tours on asphalt streets? (many hills but also flat ground).

What a GREAT to the point review. Thanks 👍💥💥. As a ‘21 M10 owner this is exactly what I wanted to hear and see in terms of salient reasons to upgrade- or not! 540 wh… hell yes! PS- what was that amazing trail? BC ? Pacific NW?

As a long time mtb rider/racer I finally ordered my first e-mtb. Got the '23 Rise M LTD and can't wait till it gets here. I'm 59 y/o so the "e" part of it is gonna be nice. I did order it with the 540W battery since I got it for only 80 bucks more and it only ads little over 1 1/2 lbs more. I thought for sure you were gonna tell us in this vid how far and long you rode (you said boost mode the whole time, right?) and how much battery was left. Do you remember these things by chance?? Regardless I don't think I will ever ride far/long enough to come close to draining this 540W battery...I think

For me that had a 2021 version and now a 2023 is the absence of rattling the major difference and also the agility of the bike that is better in 2023 model!

@BikersEdgeKaysville have you done a video on light weight vs full power eMTB’s? I can’t figure out which way to go.

Great review on your 2023 Orbea Rise! My Rise H10 20MPH - 540Wh was a game changer. Question, my motor are Shimano EP8-RS, can I upgrade the new motor to EP801?

Any news on the 2024 rise? Would utterly love to hear of any modifications/improvements 😍

Have you tried this bike with it tuned to get the full 85 nm of torque? It is amazing. Especially with the 540 wh battery and the extender.

I wonder if the rear linkage has been improved. I remember checking the previous Rise on the trail, the owner had it for about a year and you could move the rear wheel sideways in each direction by a centimeter or more.
