I would like the cs-041 or maybe the 062 again, as I sold mine due to being a little too small.

Those forks didn't come with a lockout, even though the description said they did. I ordered the same ones, and then nothing came with the forks. I wrote CRC and they gave me an $80 canadian funds discount on top of their cheap price, so I only paid $250 canadian for them.. Those remotes are pricey though.

Maybe that is where my crack/creaking is coming from too.. Whenever I push hard on the right side i hear a creaking noise and haven't found the source yet.

It seems as though the white stuff is a liquid because it seeps out.. however it is dry by the time it hits the air and when i wipe away, i almost need to scratch it off if that makes sense. I don't hear any difference in noises when i tap the frame. Like I mentioned, I have ridden since first noticing the crack and have really tried to 'bag' my bike by staying seated longer and really hammering on the pedals trying to induce flex with no new increases in size. However with that said, the second picture with the weeping white stuff was not there when I first noticed the other crack, so I am assuming that one is new.

I have a thompson 410mm seatpost, it is well into the frame and was purchased when I got the frame and still looks new. I don't think it is stress from the post.

Not trying to scare anyone from the frame. It has been good to me and still seems to be holding up fine. Just thought others should know and perhaps look in the same area to see if their frames perhaps have the same thing. It wasn't until I was on a giant anthem frame forum until I seen a thread on cracked frames and sure enough when I looked mine was cracked.

It seems my 062 has a small crack. http://imgur.com/gallery/NZiPN   the first picture shows the first cracking i noticed. The second picture shows a small crack that i cant feel, however every 2 days it leaks out white stuff.. I asked workswell what to do.. they said ride it harder to see if it is a paint crack or a structural crack. I have since ridden it 500km standing more and mashing it as much as I can.. I really can't say if it has gotten any larger, but we will see since I have only had my frame for 1 year/1500km.. I weight 200lbs and ride 99% xc trails with no major jumps/drops..

Will keep others up to date on the process with them.

Is there no bottom cover for your bike? how does your cable routing look now? Are you worried about water or damages to the cables??

So here is my 19inch 062.  I have had it for about 2 months and have about 300km on it.. Ordered it from aliexpress and when I got it one brake post was slightly off kilter so I took it to a machine shop and they retapped it for 20$.  Would I buy it again? Probably. The biggest plus : price.. My biggest complaint: rear tire clearance.. With 2.25 racing ralphs on arch ex wheels I was getting rubbing when I put the power down.. Probably nothing to be concerned about but it was still happening.. I'm 6 feet and 200lbs. I have broke 2 giant anthem frames in the last 2 years and I hope this isn't going to be another casualty.. :) I  have also broke 3 seatposts in the last 2 years, so I try to get some beefier components and can't go full weenie.

Oh, she is not too light, coming in at 22lbs with pedals.

I thought that was the lock ring.. but the top collar looks non-existant.. It has the cut out like a lock ring..

The washer that goes inside the bearing, (the silver one that wont go down) can you not push it in further? It is supposed to go down to be flush with the top of the bearing.

What doesn't work with the headset?

My best guess would be that you are trying to install the headset cups when the frame already has them as a part of the frame. Just need to pop the bearings in?? It is hard to diagnose the issue without pictures.. :)

Hope that helps.
