RISE USAGE WARNINGS
MAXIMUM TYRE WIDTH
This technical manual specifies the maximum size of the tyres
that can be fitted on the frame. Always follow these guidelines
when installing tyres on your bicycle.
Check the maximum tyre measurements in the technical spec-
ifications table of this manual.
The external measurements of different tyres may vary regard-
less of the measurement specified by the manufacturer. Radial
clearance between the outermost part of the tyre and the seat
tube and the lower part of the sheaths must be at least 6 mm.
Radial clearance between the outermost part of the tyre and
the bottom of the fork bridge and the fork bottles must be at
least 6 to 8 mm.
Also check the maximum and minimum tyre width that can be
fitted on a given rim depending on its internal width. See the
compatibility
information
documentation.
Damage to the frame or components due to the use of a
tyre that does not comply with these measurements is not
covered by the warranty.
MINIMUM SEATPOST INSERTION
Always follow the minimum insertion indications given for
the seatpost to be used or the frame on racing bikes with
Orbea exclusive seatposts.
Failure to comply with these values can stress the materials
beyond the range for which they were designed and cause
breakages not covered by the warranty, as well as accidents
that can cause serious injuries.
MAXIMUM FORK LENGTH (AXLE-TO-CROWN)
Always follow the maximum fork length listed in the technical
specifications section of this manual. The maximum fork
length refers to the distance between the fork axle and the bot-
tom part of the head tube (axle to crown).
Failure to follow this requirement and installing forks with a
length greater than the maximum specified can force the
frame beyond its design characteristics, possibly resulting
in malfunctions of the material that could cause accidents
and serious injuries.

MAXIMUM NUMBER OF HEADSET SPACERS
Never use more headset spacers below the stem than are
specified for the frame. See the specifications tables to find
the maximum number of headset spacers or the maximum
stack that are acceptable for use on an Orbea frame. Instal-
ling more spacers than allowed can stress the materials be-
yond the range for which they were designed, which can
cause accidents and serious injuries.
Also see the maximum number of headset spacers allowed
under the stem in the specifications table.
The length of the fork's steerer tube must always be suit-
able for the position of the stem in the fork. The stem must
always be installed on the fork's steerer tube so that both
fastening bolts in the rear area of the stem are positioned
on the fork's steering tube. Never assemble the stem such
that the top bolt securing the stem to the steering tube is
higher than the top edge of the fork's steering tube. This will
force the materials beyond their intended use, potentially
causing accidents and serious injuries.
The distance between the top end of the fork steerer tube
and the stem preload cap installation surface should be at
least 3 mm to allow for proper headset preloading.
