Swing arm pivot bolt, nut loose

[Gibbi]

Hi all, just a quick heads up. I don’t know if this has happened to anyone else, but while cleaning my bike today I noticed the nut to the end of the swing arm pivot bolt was loose, not even finger tight!
Looking at the torque settings it should be @ 100Nm, which I have now sorted.
My bike is a 2020 GT which I have owned from new and covered 35,500 miles, dealer served every year.
Maybe just one of those things but I’ll be keeping an eye on it in the future.

No, he's taking about the pivot bolt nut that attaches the swinging arm to the frame: torque spec is 100Nm on the nut threaded on the other end
