    Doesn't the dropout flip-chip already address that? Reducing the HA by 1 deg would only compensate for the bigger wheel if raising the rear steepened the HA, which it does not do if you lengthen the chainstay with the chip. The chip keeps the rest of the geo pretty close to exactly the same...

    Mine's been 29/29 from the start, with a Traverse SL wheelset. Have run it stock 64.5/high, and then switched to 63.5/high because I loved that on the Stumpy EVO which I came from. Never had the Stumpy in low and I'm hesitant to flip the SL to low because smashing cranks into rocks on an e-bike...

    OK, so an update on this: I got my bike with the new motor back on Friday and did a 17km ride with it. The noticeable rattle is definitely gone, but because I'm now sensitive to it, I can still pick up a very slight version of it coming from the clutch. This makes me think that it's likely to...

    Showed it to them yesterday, their opinion is that it’s definitely looser than it should be and they’re logging a warranty request. I’m very lucky, they’re the top Spez dealer in South Africa and a 5min ride up the road from me, so I can drop it off without any fuss.

    What you’re describing is exactly what I’m also experiencing. I don’t know if it’s just my memory, but I have a feeling the drive whine has also become pretty close to as noisy as my 1.1 used to be… Such a pity! Have you had your dealer look at it? I’m going to drop by on Monday and take it up...

    OK, so more on the rattle that has developed on my SL in the last 50km (it now has 300km on it). It was completely silent when new, but now when riding over even remotely bumpy terrain I get a rattle which is similar to the clicking sound when the clutch engages and disengages. Almost like the...

    Mine has also developed a motor rattle after about 200km. It was dead silent over choppy stuff when new, but now rattles when on. If I switch the assistance down to zero, it mostly disappears, which makes me think it’s the clutch (seeing as my feet are constantly slightly moving the cranks so...
