I ended up getting a whole new wheel, no idea if its an upgraded hub, freehub is much quieter though. Don't think lbs likes me as I didn't buy from them, just got handed wheel with no explanation.....?
Have found the batt and bike terminals like to be really clean after a couple of shut off's, having looked at the batt side I'm tempted to close up the female parts of the terminals, they have a gap that may not be squeezing tight enough on the male part of connector on bike side.....
Am hoping to hear back about mine this week, unfortunately had to wait for Giant NZ to get back from Crankworx.....bad timing for my hub to lock up lol.....had to buy a cheap 2nd hand wheel to keep me going....into 3rd week now ?
While cleaning Trance the other day I was surprised how worn the front chainring was after about 800km, replacement in NZ is about $100nzd so thought I'd try a cheap alternative at $25, cant be much softer than Sram one....
Easy as to fit, pedal off, MRP chain guide off, unbolt chainring, dont...
Cheers! Hard to beat value for money the Giants aye....had a couple of niggles but overall its a great bike, rear wheels in for hub warranty at mo.
Am in Napier and work right next to mtb park so Trance gets good workouts ?
Just had mine fail, was doing the odd clunk then made a big one and it locked up. Giant NZ have told me all replacement parts are in stock so will see what comes back once fixed....
Hey all, another Kiwi on board....loving riding my Giant Trance e+1, it a bit diff than most after getting rear ended after a ride and having frame swapped due to damage......now sporting the e+0 coloured frame.....
