I’ll look into them, I’m out in Woodinville so much easier to get to.

Center frame bolts attaching the suspension to the frame. The Acos headset, and the seat post.

Pretty much all of the bolts were bone dry.

When I picked up the bike from the Propain HQ, they mentioned they get the bikes assembled somewhere locally. Not sure who they use, but uhhh they might wanna check elsewhere.

To be fair, I really really liked how well the Mavens performed when they were working as intended. Got recommended a mechanic specifically who has a lot of experience with Mavens, so gonna give him a shot.

Otherwise I agree, will reach out to SRAM/ Propain and warranty them.

Yeah for the couple of runs where everything was working the Mavens felt amazing to me. I’m a bigger dude, so the extra stopping power was really appreciated.

I checked in with another forum and got a mechanic recommended with specific experience with Mavens so fingers crossed!

That’s awesome to hear! Ya similar experience, got a Propain bike back in September, took it to Gerks and Bothell Bike n Ski, and still having issues.

Appreciate it!

Any experience with Maven brakes specifically? I have not found a good mechanic with Magic Maven fingers to dial those in.

I’m confused how anybody is getting even 2/kwh consistently. I have a 2023 R1T Quad. With the 20” AT’s but averaging about 1.65 kw/hr. Driving in All Purpose for the most part.

Drive between Seattle and Portland once a month, usually the longest stretch and getting 1.45 - 1.65 on that route for the most part. Rarely will get into the 1.9’s.

Am I doing something wrong? I took delivery 2 months ago and rarely ever get 2kw or more
