loctite and torque the motor mount bolts and grease the rear motor mount bushings......my 2021 would develop a creak when pedalling and this was the solution
Yes exactly...not sure what reservoirs will fit but the longer one I tried on the Bomber definitely interfered. Also frame sizes might come into play......mine was a small....and extra large might clear??
I used the Jade X Coil.....you could also use the new Topaz with the horizontal reservoir...
Yeah 147mm...no fit issues, but you need a shock with a smaller reservoir like the dvo to clear the Down tube at full compression

I set mine up with a 1.5 angle set. 170mm fork and a 55mm stroke coil.....it ripped! Moved to a Levo but the Trance setup like that was a really good ride. FYI I have the DVO coil for sale if interested
I have one of the first available 21 trance x's in the US. My battery software is 17PF. I've only had one issue with water after a wash where the bike failed to turn on. Besides that it's been faultless (knock on wood).
I would like to preemptively have the software updated. Can any Giant...

My dealer says they are coming and it looks like mediums and larges are confirmed in +3 and +2
Wait to see if the are getting the small they have ordered.
I also installed an angle headset. Mine is at 1.5 degrees. It was the best mod to the bike. I'm on a small so the long chain stay felt extra long. Now it feels more balanced as the front center increased. It's also better downhill.
