Six boltQuick question... are the discs 6 bolt or center lock?

Yes dropped torque down to 9nm and plenty of thread lock on that particular bolt,done 80km and it’s not budged yetYes Mine creaked like crazy after i replaced the shock. I added loads of threadlock, it quietened it enough but not 100%. @Trickz said he used carbon paste hopefully his stayed quiet. Just torquing it up will not be enough!
Don't forget that the Float X can be upgraded with the low-speed compression knob
Hey cool, did not know thisDon't forget that the Float X can be upgraded with the low-speed compression knob:

I have the black, it is definitely looking better in real life than on the pictures from their website. It is matte though and lack some brand writing (you almost can't see them)Which colour to go for? Ignore the white grips and saddle.

I’ve got the purple. Super coolI have the black, it is definitely looking better in real life than on the pictures from their website. It is matte though and lack some brand writing (you almost can't see them)
Liked the purple version too but I never saw it irl so I can't say
I got rid of m creak by taking shock out and greasing up everythingWell mines creaking really bad, everything is torqued to spec as well. Apart from the creak the bike is so quiet and it really doesn’t feel like a XL.
Can you guess why?
But it's like it's cracking and is going to explode (I may be exaggerating a bit ahah), never had a noise like that beforeDon’t think it’s motor noise, think it’s just drivetrain noise because you’re in such a high gear. Think mine does the same when it’s in the top gear.
I cannot hear anything because of the other sounds. Try recording the sound on a street that climbs up, holding your phone near the bottom bracket.Hi everyone,
Loving this bike as I go faster and faster (way faster than my old non-electric bike by the way lol), but I have a strange problem, I need to inspect it more but maybe you will have some hints
I have a strange nose coming from the motor I think, I have it in video here :

You can hear it a bit if you listen carefully, in real life it's a lot more hearable (not thank you to the mud ahah)
It only appears when I'm in a quite high percentage slope, but only when using the higher sprockets (those with the biggest number of teeth). If I use the middle or lower sprockets there is no noise, it only increases with the more teeth I use. This is not logical as this is where I turn the legs the quickest and put the less torque on the system. It may not come from the motor of course, but noise comes from around there for sure
Just a cheap camelbak off Amazon. Think it’s 650ml or 700. Seems to fit just and does the job. Longer rides I used a hydration pack.So what bottle do you use. I bought a Fidlock compact 750 but it doen't fit.
