RIDER SYNERGY
Rider Synergy Concept: A new riding experience that enhances the joy of traditional trail riding with smooth support that feels as natural and alive as your own body. RS is a new philosophy – a completely integrated system that becomes a reality when Power, Range, Interface and Weight are considered together.

Whether you crave riding greater distances, reaching more epic locations, improving efficiency or increasing the frequency of your adventures, Rise beyond expectations and discover the new standard in MTB.

RS POWER
The idea of creating their own power plant for Rise was daunting, but Orbea believed that this would be the only way to realise their goal of a complete RS system for trail bikes. They had been looking for the best way to achieve this for a long time, so when Shimano shared the plans for their new EP8 motor, they quickly realised that this awesome drive unit offered them the perfect platform on which to build the RS Power concept. Working jointly, Orbea set out to develop proprietary electronics and batteries while Shimano created and delivered an exclusive motor configured to our own RS specifications. Power is only as useful as the manner in which it is applied. The EP8 RS power band feels alive, smooth and responsive, echoing your input and cadence.
Max Torque: 60nm
Max Speed: 25km/h (20mph in USA)

RS RANGE
Rise is intended for big rides. With two battery options Rise has enough fuel for the longest days, it utilises a very light and compact 360Wh main battery with an optional, patent-pending 252Wh range extender.
The RS concept provides a great day on the trails because the lighter bike, lower power consumption and of course, the pedal-friendly weight and assistance extends battery life by a factor of over 1.5x. This means the 360Wh RS Battery of Rise delivers ride times and ranges similar to a 540Wh battery in a typical eBike. 3-4 hour ride time. Adding the RS Range Extender gives ride times comparable to a 900Wh battery on a regular ebike. That’s 8 hours and over 4,000m of climbing in Eco mode.

RS INTERFACE
The elegance of simplicity is undeniable. Many riders spend hours removing excess weight, noise and visual distractions from their bikes. Orbea have embraced data collection with cycling computers and smartphones but often stop short of attaching large displays on their handlebars or top tubes. With a traditional ebike, displays, sensors, extra wires and large glowing buttons are standard and unavoidable. For Orbea, the option of a traditional, uncluttered machine is a critical aspect of the RS philosophy.
The RS Interface is sleek, but doesn’t lack expandability. The simplest configuration consists of a discreet rocker switch near the left brake lever to control assistance level and a small, inline junction box with two tiny LEDs that provides support mode info and smartly broadcasts wireless data.

RS WEIGHT
The RS Motor, Battery and Electronics are lighter than other eBike systems by over half, Rise can weigh as little as 16 kg or 36lbs.
