Have asked my dealer if Giant make a little umbrella that can be positioned over the vulnerable bits but have not had a reply. Dealer suggested pulling power cables apart and leaving to dry out, but found that after about a week the problem disappeared - must have dried out naturally I suppose.
2017 GIANT FATHOM 2 FREE
Pressing the walk mode button once whilst riding seemed to free up the other mode selectors. Only twigged this when i got off the bike and it started off on its own under walk mode without me pressing any buttons at all. Also, unbeknown to me initially, the walk mode was activating itself whilst I was riding - in doing so it would lock up the other power modes so you could not change from the power mode currently selected. Heavy downpour - battery would not power off at all - remove battery completely and then when you reinstall, the system powered up without pressing the on/off button. A Large Ergon would have been too thick to fit inside the thumbpad ring. The Ergon Small fits inside the thumbpad ring. What this means is you can't just swap out the OEM grips with any old grip because the thumbpad will just flop around on the handlebars.
The ring part of the thumbpad, which you would expect to fit snugly around the handlebar, instead fits onto this collar. The thumpad slips over this collar, and the set screw bites into it. The Liv grip has a small collar extending past the inner edge of the grip. It keys into a hard plastic sleeve that extends outward from the Liv grip. When removing the Liv grips I was surprised to see that the thumbpad on the left that controls the bike's electronic functions does not attach to the handlebar. Only difference is in the diameter of the grip where it's round, not paddle-shaped. Both Large and Small are the same length, and the big "paddle" seems to be the same. I bought a set of Ergon GP4's to replace the OEM grips. I imagine this pops up with several of the Giant/Liv bikes. There's a big problem if you want to swap the OEM grips for something else.
