    ISO 60-622 Commute Tire (for tubeless)

    ounds good. Looking forward to your review - particularly how they stick to slick off-camber chipseal slopes...

    ISO 60-622 Commute Tire (for tubeless)

    Nice that Bontrager actually give a durometer (60A) for those tyres. Schwalbe compounds are a complete dogs breakfast - Basic, Dual, Road Star,TravelStar, Onestar, Evolution, Performance, 4 standard Addix compounds plus Addix E etc etc. Who knows what you're actually getting? The last Schwalbe...

    Which is likely how the whole crank mess began, if in fact they fitted two RH crank arms, and two RH pedals. That isn't something a factory would have done; it's a spotty teenager mistake.

    ISO 60-622 Commute Tire (for tubeless)

    I really don't think weight matters much on an ebike. Grip is most important by far, followed by puncture protection, and durability in my book. Take a look at the Kenda Kwick Drumlin - 1595g for the 27.5x2.2 which is rated as best for high speed ebikes...

    ISO 60-622 Commute Tire (for tubeless)

    I've got 27.5x2.25 G One All Round (Performance, folding) and they are a great riding tyre but for the lightweight carcass. Excelllent grip but needs more sidewall support and puncture protection. I've ordered the 2.15 Almotion and hoping it will be as grippy on wet seal.

    Both fine forks... another inch or so of travel would give you the room to run softer air pressures (as 6zfshdb suggested) which would help smooth the ride

    You could have spaced the RS 30 Gold fork down. Takes 15min to fit the spacers to the air shaft to reduce travel to whatever you need.... https://www.amazon.com/Rockshox-Travel-Spacers-Soloair-Change/dp/B00HRW3UD8

    Those two pedals are L&R threaded? Sounds and looks like your dealer is a complete idiot. I'd say they swapped out a crank arm off your bike for another customer and received the wrong replacement from Giant and fitted it anyway. The Nukeproof and Giant pedals don't even match. Did you buy it...

    Sounds like it... haven't noticed that issue on mine. Back to the dealer for you.

    Adjusting Brake lever throw out

    Almost always. Some higher end lever bodies have tool-less reach adjustment, and lower end bodies have a grub screw which does the same thing with a 2mm or 2.5mm allen key. Do a search online for your brake model adjustments, since we have no clue...

    What's your farthest ride on a single charge with a Vado?

    Altitude climbed, rider weight, wind strength are significant factors missing in these comparisons... Strava can provide altitude climbed.

    Yes, plenty of folk I know have had issues with water getting into the RideControl, some have had it replaced more than once. I'd seal the seams and cable ports asap, and don't hose it down. A friend of mine designs and builds trails for a living and has spent months on the west coast building...

    Widespread Giant motor creaking problem - time for a recall?

    Creaks don't typically come from inside motors, but mounting bolts, cranks, seatposts, seat rails, and headsets are common culprits.

    Reducing Maintenance $$$ - longer lasting chains & emtb tires?

    Long time biker here - I don't bother with the whole chain rotating nonsense, wear the whole lot out together and replace it. Nothing worse than putting a new chain on a partly worn cassette only to have engagement issues, (despite diligantly observing chain wear according to the dinky chain...
