    Sorted... after some gentle 50km rides no creaking so I went out on the hilliest steepest local ride that I know and did some serious out of the saddle in normal mode honking and still no creaking.. 😁

    Widespread Giant motor creaking problem - time for a recall?

    It was a process of elimination, all the above were stripped cleaned and relubed/greased, but these creaks are definitely from BB/ motor mounts area, I have a high end Carbon Roadie that is an absolute nightmare for creaks, so much so it just hangs on the wall. So 15 miles of steep short climbs...

    Widespread Giant motor creaking problem - time for a recall?

    Had this issue with my 2017 QuickE. It went back after about 3months and the guy's regreased the mounting bolts. A year since and now the creaking has seriously returned, it seems fine when I start out but after an hour it starts creaking, tho I've noticed that if you turn the motor off and...

    Giant Quick E proving invaluable.

    Somehow a month ago I suffered a heart attack, I said it was indigestion all along even in the ambulance, glad they didn't listen. ( not over weight, don't smoke, don't drink alcohol, don't eat red meat and commute 30 mile a day on the bike ). After having a stent fitted and my HGV license...

    As for the headset I dropped the forks out and cleaned up all the contact surfaces, then used copper slip and refitted everything. Once again it's been fine since.

    I had issues with the motor/frame creaking quite early on, when I put pressure down on the cranks, I took it in and they regreased the mounting bolts, it's been fine since with nearly 4k miles on it. I'd contact Giant and let them have a look.

    I did think about a bigger chainring, so I get a better spread of wear from the rear cassette instead of just running 7,8,9 and ten.

    When you took it apart, was it possible to attach the guard ring on the inside. Or does the chain line make the chain rub. Not sure a front derailleur would sort it, but some sort of guide is needed, I have a chain devise on my DH bike to stop this, but that is a completely different set up.

    Yep I've had mine jump off quite a few times, it's a right pain in the ass to get the chain back out. It jams behind the crosshead screw holding the bashplate on. I thought about putting a larger headed screw in to stop the chain getting past, but when I started to unscrew the screw it didn't...
