Levo SL Gen 1 Turbo Levo SL: squeak on big jumps, not from suspension

[Cannikin]

So in the last month or so I've developed a pretty big squeak when I launch on bigger jumps...just hopping on flat ground doesn't seem to cause it, it's only if I hit something fairly big.

My assumption was the front or rear suspension, but I've since swapped them both out and I've got the exact same sound. I can't really tell where it's coming from when I'm riding. The only other moving parts are the rear linkage and the axles. Is it possible I need to lubricate something in the linkage? I figured those were sealed bearings, but maybe not?

Lube your axles. That got rid of a squeak for me. It could be something inside the frame. It could be crank or motor too.

Are you sure it's not you? How big are the jumps? I'm fairly sure I've made a squealing/squeaking sound after hitting an unexpectedly large drop following a friend down a new trail.

Are you sure it’s not your new knee ?my Sl doesn’t creak but then I do have both my own knees still .

Have you checked the swingarm chain stay bolt on the drive side behind the sprocket? I read on here that many were loose and eventually caused damage if left in checked....I checked mine and it was loose but not horrible....not sure if it would cause the squeek but worth checking
