Got a second Giant suede recently while I fix my other . The motor kicks in as soon as any pedal pressure . My other suede under repair Required a bit of pedalling before motor came in . Worried that this second bike motor may be damaged with this immediate response when I’m still not moving . Is it something thatshould be attended to or is it Nothing to worry about ? If it should be sorted how is any adjustment made to pedal Sensor
Thanks
Mike

I doubt it's anything to worry about, the latest Giant bikes work like that.

And the earlier Panasonic powered Giant Lafree responded instantly to pressure with its maximum power, so it isn't anything unusual to worry about.
