Yes it is UHD.
This is the sound that bothers me in the engine. I think this is really heavy to tread when I go past the speed limit.
Edit:
I found a similar problem on youtube. The Bike Seller said he had never heard of a problem like this in a giant.
Driving uphill in low gear with full boost, the grant went off completely. The bike had to be turned off after which it started working.

Yep, me it does work fine
loving it. No issues at all. Done 8 or 9 park days and loads of trail riding. Broken my hand two ago so 4 weeks off the bike 
How tall are you guys to run such high rise bars and which benefits are you getting on the trails ?
I'm about to swap my stem/bar combo and I was wondering if I would like switching to a 35mm rise bar up from the 20mm original Giant.
So many people are runing high rise, but I fear that I will let go some front wheel traction because of that.
XL stack is 650mm which is pretty good.

I have 4 x 5mm Spachers and a bar with 30mm Rise. No issue on flats or uphill, but more relaxed on steep decents.
Don't worry and give it a try

I was running riser bars on my previous Trance which had a much lower stack, my riding position was way forward (like an XC bike) and it helped cure back pain on longer rides.
I run my 2022 Reign E+2 with stock handlebar, shorter stem (35mm) and it is fine so far.
Risers (IMHO) make sense if you have long legs and short torso (relatively speaking) thus helping with a more upright riding position with the side effect of reducing the load on the front wheel. My 2 cents…
Mine makes a bit of a slushing sound, not too bad yet. But yes, not unheard of.
I also have a cavitation sound, already new. I think there is too little oil.
I found the noise went away after a few cycles, now it’s really bad. I think it’s air in the dampener oil and when there is a little bit it emulsifies after a few pumps. Now mine need a full rebuild.

Did you investigate a fix under warranty?
Yeah fox will rebuild under warranty.

Not had any issues with the 40s, 32s or 38s I have owned. Yes you have to look after them but they’ve never broken.
Sorry, was more on about rear shocks. I don't knock anyone that hasn't had issues with them. Also can't service yourself like rockshox.

Ah fair enough. I had a DHX5 on my old DH sled that I abused for 10 yrs without a service and it never missed a beat. My old Float Air shock also only had its first service a few weeks ago after 13 years of riding.
To be honest I have limited experience with Rockshox kit but I can only say good things about Fox and Marzocchi.
My bike (E+0) has started turning off on its own. When it comes back on it resets the button mapping which is kind of weird.
Shop is looking at it, hopefully it's a simple fix! I went for a ride on my non-e bike and it felt like I was stuck in molasses (lol). Too spoiled.

Has anyone managed to get the circumference of the rear wheel changed in the software yet so this thing can actually achieve a true 25kph?
I have been riding my Trek Rail more than the Giant lately. When I jumped back on the Giant yesterday its really noticeable how quickly that limit arrives and how abruptly it cuts out in comparison.

Says UHD on the Giant page, I bought one as a spare without dismantling looks the same.
I have once done that the assistant did not work. I restarted the bike software and the engine started normal again.

I had a creak after a week sounded like head, stripped and greased head bearings and all suspension but still there turned out to be the seat post creaking the sound rang all way up the top tube, grab the seat and twist from side to side if its the same issue a little grease lower down the post fixed mine.

New to the forum, and to eMTB not to giant though my first Giant was a 1998 ATX-970 which i still own 
, Had the Reign E+3 about 2 weeks now, had some of the normal issues, dented a rim, loose bolts, low power numbers between it and my garmin (which is how i found this thread) but love the bike I have come from a much shorter and livelier bike to this monster and love it. Only change the cockpit the brake levers were swapped out for some old 1 finger deore which work really well, the bars have changed for a 39mm rise nukeproof cut down to 750 the above was to get rid of some hand/thump pain i was getting which is now hopefully sorted.
Had some good rides so far, best one was this weekend, my first peaks ride with a couple of other eBs, still had 25% battery left so should be able to get 1500m plus if im careful.

I was browsing the thread today looking for information about a coil shock and saw this post, this frame seems to have the same crack from this thread today Giant reign 2022 frame cracking - EMTB Forums
Is this an ongoing problem on this bike?
