My 2011 V10 carbon has been creaky all season, but it's the bolt at the adjustable travel plates at the bottom shock mount that are the problem on mine. Every few days you have to take it apart, clean, grease and re-assemble to eliminate the creak. (it is loud folks) Spoke w SC about it who say they will deal with it one way or the other, but so far just ask me to grease and try it again basically. Gonna to send some steel parts to replace the ti ones, somehow I don't think that'll do it. Bike is great for a few days until the creak returns making the thing sound like a Walmart special! Not too happy to say the least!

Are they gonna try to change the terms "freeriding" and "downhill" to a general term "black diamond" here on PB now? Found his old mag a bit of a rag due in large part to an arrogance about biking in general. Hope he's gotten over his feeling of self-importance...PB is too good for that kind of attitude!
