@plustiresaintdead: @plustiresaintdead: There's a reason why things have torque specs. You sound like the "bike mechanic" at one of my LBS's who told me he doesn't torque down pivot bolts when I had him check out my 5010 because there was a clanking noise. Said he just tightens them until they're snug. Well, first ride after he did what he did, guess what was back? That noise. Went home, checked Santa Cruz's site, and what do you know....they list specific torque values for ALL the pivot bolts. Torqued them all myself, hasn't made a noise since. But yet, torquing bolts is totally unnecessary. -nobody ever.

Review: The Orbea Wild M-LTD Raises the Bar for eMTB
@Muscovir: That's the dumbest thing I've heard today. Yeah, spending $10K + on a NEW bike, receiving it with a shitty paint job, and returning it because of shit paint job....that's what you think is "wrong with this sport?" Give me a break. So, if you ordered a new car with a custom paint job, got it delivered and it looked like crap, you'd shrug it off and still take delivery? Highly doubt it.

@dylananderson: My '21 Heckler CC MX is 45lbs, has a 504wh battery and 85nm of torque. Not exactly 40lbs, but close enough for me!
