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

one question and please be honest.How long have you owned the bike and does the BB creak at all?

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.
