Saw one on my vacation in the mountains, at the bike shop there, probably one of my favourite modern bikes visually.

This is my second month on the bike. I keep everything pretty clean, and used loctite 680 when I assembled the bb. No creaks as of yet. I rode in the pnw, so I expect I will get a creak, but it's pretty easy to disassemble and clean, at that time I'll probably replace the bb as they only go 6 months around here.

FYI, my Giant Reign (ALU 1) from 2015 is still going strong in the BB department, original bearings after 2 seasons (bought it in july 2015), _NO_ creaking. I did have to replace the suspension bearings for example. The BB bearings are still smooth for some reason.
