Do you have any idea what bolt it is/was? Mine was making a kind of metal vibrating noise, but my bf noticed the chain was loose and rubbing so it might just be that too idk. Going to tighten the chain shortly though.

@Bigwill: Thanks I thought it was a pretty funny title too. :p!
It sucks about the reset button, but at least I know I'm not the only one.

it was the front bolt that holding the visor, bit its no big of deal just tighten it a bit and its like new again.

and yes there's some noise that came from the chain, at first i thought because i dont follow the instruction from the manual book and run my bike fast before 500 km (300miles). but perhaps it's just the chain mechanism. i wouldn't worry about it, just make sure its tight.

Remember before you tighten it up that there should be some slack in the chain. It depends on your spring and well your pretty light, so weight shouldnt be an issue. The wheel moves in an arc so the chain will get tighter as the rear tire moves up. You def dont want a guitar string back there. You should have between 1 - 1.5 inches of slack.

@Mellow: That was a good one! XD @Jeana: Welcome fellow chick rider! Glad to hear you are loving the bike as much as I am. I'm 5'1" though so I am DEF in need of that lowering link. I'm keeping my eyes peeled for sure, so I will definitely be posting something about it as soon as I find one out on the market.

Shiny side up!
