    Giant E+4 grips.

    The Giant E+4 grips are different than the E+2 in that the controller is different and does not seem to be integrated with the grip. I cannot figure out how to remove them. Has anyone done it? Any advice will be appreciated. thanks.

    Giant Explore geometry issue?

    What I really don't like about my Giant Explore E+4

    1) The terrible Owners Manual. 2) The only slightly better fork manual 3) The shifter levers: If you move the set so that the down shifter lever doesn't rub against the base of your thumb it is then hard to reach the up shifter lever. 4) The fact that the heel of my left shoe hits the kickstand...

    Rattling Battery lock

    Anyone else have this problem? I have a Giant, no problem, my wife has a Liv and her lock rattles so much you can hear it a half block away. My LBS where I recently bought it is closed. Any ideas as to how to fix it? Thanks

    Front disc brake rubbing

    As I ride and makes a bell-like scraping sound. Does the same when put upside down and the front tire is spun. Any known cure? I'd take it back to my LBS but he's closed for the duration.

    Shut down in Reno, NV

    But my wife and I can go outside to exercise on our recently purchased bikes. A giant for me and an almost identical Liv for her. Just waiting for some warmer weather.
