I heard of the problem with the rear wheel - didn't have any of that myself. It was the bottom bracket shell on my frame.
Just heard that the frame should be in stock now - crossing my fingers for the wait is over soon

Yes, my bike came with a DT wheelset. Also tried Easton, Novatec and a generic steel qr. Most times I would notice shifting problems and disc brake rub so I new it was time to stop and tighten it again.
Eventually the drive side drop out ovalized. I am disgusted with my mtb frame situation.

That sounds terrible, Gregorio. I hope you'll have better luck in the future.
Did Scott improve the tire clearance on the new frame? That has always been a disadvantage of Scales IMO.

Isn't it just a Speedneedle where the padding have fallen off? That shouldn't be a problem, it's not sharp around the edges, and it certainly can't cut the inside of your thighs!
