Shimano EP600 Motor with RS-Tuned Assistance
The Shimano EP600 motor uses Orbea’s RS-tuned assistance system to balance responsive power delivery with efficient battery use. Rather than overwhelming the rider, the system is designed to provide support that feels connected to your pedalling, helping preserve the natural handling and trail feel of the bike. Assistance responds when needed on climbs and demanding sections, allowing riders to maintain momentum while remaining actively involved in the ride.
540 Wh Battery with Range Extender Compatibility
The integrated Orbea 540 Wh battery provides capacity for longer trail rides while supporting the Rise’s lightweight-focused design. For riders planning extended adventures, the bike is compatible with Orbea’s optional 252 Wh range extender, increasing total battery capacity to 792 Wh when fitted. Actual riding range depends on terrain, assistance settings, rider input and conditions.
140 mm Fox Full Suspension
The Fox 34 Float AWL Sport fork provides 140 mm of front suspension travel, matched by 140 mm of rear travel controlled by a custom-tuned Fox Float Performance 2-Pos EVOL LV shock. This suspension combination helps maintain traction over roots, rocks and uneven ground while providing support and control on technical trails. The Rise Hydro aluminium frame is designed to balance confident descending with responsive climbing and cornering.
Shimano Deore 12-Speed Drivetrain
Shimano Deore M6100 12-speed gearing combines a 32T chainring with a wide-range 10-51T cassette, providing useful gearing for steep climbs, technical trails and faster sections. The Shimano Shadow Plus rear derailleur helps manage chain movement over rough ground, while Shimano MT201 hydraulic disc brakes provide controlled stopping power.
29 Inch Wheels and Schwalbe Wicked Will Tyres
The 29 inch alloy wheels are paired with Schwalbe Wicked Will Evo TLE 2.40 inch tyres front and rear. Their trail-focused tread is designed to balance rolling efficiency with off-road traction, making them suitable for mixed trail conditions. Tubeless-compatible rims and tyres also provide the option of a tubeless setup with suitable components and sealant.
Dropper Seatpost and Trail-Focused Cockpit
An OC Mountain Control MC22 dropper seatpost allows the saddle to be lowered for descents and technical sections, giving riders more freedom to move around the bike. The 800 mm OC Mountain Control handlebar provides steering leverage and control, while the Fizik Terra Ridon X5 saddle completes the trail-focused specification.
Who It’s For
The Orbea Rise SL H30 2026 is ideal for mountain bikers who want the benefits of electric assistance without losing the responsive feel of a conventional trail bike. Its 140 mm full suspension platform, 29 inch wheels and RS-tuned Shimano motor make it particularly well suited to natural singletrack, technical trail riding and longer off-road adventures where handling and rider engagement matter as much as motor assistance.
