Thumper, It sucks that your bike is exhibiting so many mfg flaws. Mine, with a build date of May 2021, has been going together very well. The only fitment issues I've discovered are the top of the foot brake arm returning against the foot starter mounting bolt instead of the adjustable brake arm stop. I can easily remove a little material from the top of the brake arm and create clearance so it rests against the stop screw as intended. Only other thing is that the rack or tail of the bike seems to lean a bit to one side. Probably looks fine after a couple beers. Other than that, things went together well. I wonder if these bikes are produced in more than one mfg plant? If so, maybe one plant has their s@#t together and the other is a cluster f#$%k? All fasteners on mine were tight, all spokes were tight, no missing hardware, etc. I did notice the valve cover bolts were way too tight. I have to assume somebody on the line got a new power tool for Chinese New year.
