Orbea Rise Hydro 2022 eMTB - First Look! The Lightest Aluminum E-Bike!

Kyle shows off the new 2022 Orbea Rise H30. The lightest and most agile aluminum e-bike currently on the market! Orbea set the bar for lightweight eBikes that carried over the feel and performance of their analog siblings with the introduction of the carbon framed Rise eBike models based off their Occam trail bike. Now, they've done it again by introducing an alloy version of the Rise eMTB that takes all that Orbea learned from the carbon version and packages it in an aluminum frame that allows them to bring much of the same performance and weight, but at a significantly cheaper price. The changes and updates don't stop at the new alloy frame. Watch our First Look video then head over to our blog to learn even more about all the intricate details that make the new Orbea Rise H eBike models so tempting

First Ride Review: 2021 Ibis Ripley AF

It wasn't that long ago that Ibis shook up the world of high-end mountain bikes with their release of their Ripmo AF; an aluminum version of the wildly popular Ripmo frame with a bit more attitude and ultra-smart budget build. Well, they've done it again but this time with the Ripmo's little sibling, the Ripley. Ibis is now offering a more aggressive alloy version of their more svelte and nimble 29er 120mm XC/trail bike. With this new AF iteration, the Ripley is no longer a slightly aggressive cross country/lightweight trail bike. Now the Ripmo and the Ripley are opposite ends of the same rowdy spectrum. The new Ripley AF, despite it’s size, is an extremely capable and rowdy trail bike. So, we headed out to the trail, threw a leg over this new rig and checked out some of the changes and improvements Ibis has made to the new Alloy Ripley.
