Yes, the base M2 rattled while coasting under the gnar compared back to back with the M2S. I would say it was less than than the Bosch Gen 4 bike I have, so in the scheme of things, the motors performance far outweighed concerns about rattling, though folks sensitivity to it varies. While I assumed the M2S would be rattle-less as a going concern, there are some cases reported where the M2S could start to rattle after a break-in period of about 150-200 miles and this is an open issue as how Avinox intends to handle this from a warranty / recall perspective, as the M2S was designed specifically to address rattling. The M2S is still fairly early in the release cycle, so we don't yet have beat on how prevalent this is or if even Avinox has caught onto this and has addressed it with new motor production runs.
