Orbea Rise SL M-LTD 420Wh

Orbea Rise SL M-LTD - The lightest model in the new Rise series

The new generation of the Orbea Rise is the perfect example of how to make good things even better. In short, there are updates in every nook and cranny. Basically, you can now choose between two Rise series: The SL largely corresponds to the familiar suspension with 140 millimetres of travel at the front and rear (all-round use). The LT series (Long Travel) has been added with 10 or 20 millimetres more travel, i.e. 150 millimetres at the rear and 160 millimetres at the fork (enduro use). You can also choose the battery power: each Rise model is available with either 420 or 630 watt hours. If this level of endurance is still not enough, a range extender battery with a further 210 watt hours can be docked in place of the water bottle. News also for the drive: the tried-and-tested Shimano EP801 motor is no longer necessarily throttled to 54 Nm, but can develop its full torque of 85 Nm on request. These options make the Rise even more versatile and powerful - and at a weight of well under 20 kilos! By the way: The completely newly developed frame with asymmetrical centre strut is now made of carbon on all models.

The Rise SL M-LTD is the spearhead of the Orbea Light-E-Fullys. In the spirit of lightweight construction, the model comes with a 420 Wh battery and exclusive features that will make connoisseurs' mouths water. The highlight is the electronically controlled Sram XX Eagle AXS rear derailleur, which receives its shifting commands wirelessly from the cockpit. Thanks to T-Type technology, it sits firmly and more precisely than ever on the rear triangle. The gears are combined with Shimano XTR 4-piston disc brakes. Responsible for the sporty riding characteristics is the highly sensitive suspension with Fox 34 Float Factory suspension fork and a Float Factory damper, also from the legendary Fox forge. Standard Oquo Mountain Control wheels and a Fox telescopic seatpost leave nothing to be desired.

Shimano EP801 motor with improved Orbea RS tuning

Shimano EP801RS - maximum efficiency meets natural power The Shimano EP801RS is one of the most powerful and at the same time most natural e-bike drives on the market. In collaboration with the Spanish premium manufacturer Orbea, the motor has been further optimised with the specially developed RS Gen 2 firmware. The result: a particularly sensitive response behaviour that harmoniously and efficiently supports your own pedalling power - ideal for sporty riders.

Two specially tuned support profiles get the best out of the EP801RS depending on the intended use:

• RS mode (profile 1): Offers dynamic but harmonious support at an optimum cadence and provides up to 56 Nm of torque - perfect for long tours with plenty of power and a long range.
• RS+ mode (Profile 2): Developed for steep, technical climbs and low cadences. With a maximum torque of 85 Nm, the EP801RS transforms the bike into a true climbing wonder.

Both profiles can be conveniently configured via the Shimano eTube app - for a riding experience that can be customised to your needs at any time.
