is it me or is this bike very noisy ? It seems lime falling apart. I check all my pivots torque regularly, I'm thinking chain slap might be the issue.

I had noise too. Transition said it was chain slap. I used stfu guides and although chain slap is gone, still feels like it’s going to come apart and clanks. What shock are you running? Also does the shock line up nicely when bolting it into place my frame seems misaligned - I am wondering if that is what the clanking noise is from running dhx2.

Running a stock hub /wheelset?

I've gone mad trying to find the issue with mine and think that maybe the culprit

My noise was the Fox DHX2, makes knock sound. So does the original Float X. Had them both serviced but using Rockshox this year and the bike is very quiet.

Hey, I’ve noticed the same thing on my bike sometimes — even with everything torqued right. Chain slap is usually the culprit, but every pivot can sneak in a little noise too. Did you try a chain guide or some tape on the chainstay?

Not stock hub/wheelset. It was a bad chainstay, was misaligned as I suspected, also the Fox DHX2 and original Float X suffer from some clank noises.
