This is worth quoting again.
Can you explain more on what's up with the GSD?
QC Issues.
I handle warranty claims at my shop and we've found one or more of the
following issues on roughly half the GSDs we've built (~130 total)Brake mounts require excessive facing Brake mounts are welded on
crooked and can't be fixed with any amount of facing Rear hydro line
crushed by motor casing during factory assembly (S10) Rear shift
housing crushed by motor casing during factory assembly (S10) Drive
unit mounting bolts being severely under torqued Drive unit mounting
bolts being over torqued to the point in which they break the lips off
the motor that hold the bolt head in place, making them spin freely
when you try to loosen them Derailleur hanger not sitting flush with
dropout due to paint and getting destroyed by the thru axle after a
few wheel removals/installations Threads on Enviolo axle bolts
stripped during factory assembly (S00) Heads of rear caliper bolts
stripped during assembly Dust cap of freedhub body slowly working
itself loose while riding, resulting in the cassette being pushed far
enough out to mess with shifting and eventually seizing the freehub
body all together (S10) Speedometer cables spec'd too short, resulting
in premature failure due to the stress of coming out of the drive unit
at a right angle Top half of aft Power Pack harness welded on crooked,
resulting in a very tight if not impossible fitting for the aft Power
Pack (this seems to be an issue specifically when installing
keyed-alike systems) Spotty welding of the rear rack.Hope the helps. The bike is fine once the QC issues have been
addressed, but I just wish they'd put some money back into having them
manufactured at a factory with higher standards.
Had a spin on one of these on Monday - much awesome.
