A few weeks later, I am happy with the Rize RX. Have done a few 60+ km rides - including one yesterday where I rode 30km back in rain. (winter on the west coast of Canada). I have purchased 27.5 X 2.6" Schwalbe Johnny Watts tires, but am using the stock Kendas which are performing just...

Thanks for your input everyone. I ordered a Rize RX matte black from the Vancouver location today. I live a ferry ride away in Victoria, BC While I was deciding they sold out the RX Pros in every colour. (maybe with the Canadian winter coming they shipped all of the stock to LA?)

So you already have a fatbike yet you still figured you needed a mtb style ebike, that is swaying me over to the RX now.

Thanks, so you are probably reading that at the lowest point, like at the 28" point in the diagram, although in reality your clearance is the next reading up, where it says 30". I would think the seat height is lower on the Pro with the suspension post compared to the RX with the 2" higher...

so the RX Pro has probably got 80mm wheel width.

See photo from Rize website, but here’s the thing, they use this same photo and measurements for the Pro. To start with the Pro has a 2” smaller frame. It would be much appreciated if someone with a RX Pro could take the height measurements at the same points as this photo.

oh you can hear a fatbike coming, I sure do when I am on my road bike. that’s the other guy that is 6’3, I am 5’9.

AHicks, I know the RX Pro is a 17” frame vs 19” on the RX, but the Rize website says the standover height is identical. Are you saying the RX Pro is easier to mount? Personally I don’t believe the website cause they are using the RX fitting photo for both the RX and RX Pro. Maybe you guys...

The two bikes appear to be the same height according to the website, although with the 2” smaller frame in the Pro it appears the seat could go lower than the RX. Hard to believe the sizing is identical, the RX has a 19” frame, the RX Pro has a 17”.

26”x 3” tires are a rare item, looks like you have the only tire available. When you can, please measure your wheel width. thanks

Well that is quite impressive ebike noob! and with a hub drive!

I ride a 900lb Harley Electraglide, a 70lb ebike shouldnt be a problem.

yes, this is the dilemma, it is why my cf bike has 25mm tires, but the Rize will be used mostly off road.

Slightly smaller frame on the RX Pro, 17”, 26 x 4” tires on the Pro vs 27.5” x 2.35 on RX. Wider fork on the Pro. 6lbs less weight on the RX.

AHicks, I meant the rim itself, what is the wheel rim width? 100mm? thanks

I am in a dilemma - was going to get the RX Pro, but maybe I really don't need a fat bike, and am thinking the RX is a better match. You guys with the RX Pro, do you have any regrets getting the Pro? do you think the RX would suit you better now? I live in Victoria, BC - it is very...
