The only set of shorter cranks I initially found with the proper spline that I have tried was the Luna 150mm and for me they were way too short. Would be happy to try a set of 160 or 165s
That's what I was guessing. It sounds like the m510 might be somewhere in the middle between the M500 and M600 in terms of deliverable power and, I am hoping, perhaps superior torque sensing than I experience with the M600. I could use a bit less high speed power than the M600 has if I can find...
Maybe a style difference as well. I am a big guy and used to ride a 177.5mm crank set on my road bike at a moderate cadence but with lots of climbing power. Maybe I am able to power up the longer cranks easier than the shorter ones because of the way my body is configured.
Wow, What a difference! The 170mm cranks really seems to engage the torque sensor compared to the 150mm cranks. The motor gave me much more back exactly when asked for. Different leverage angles? Not sure why this is, but happy with the change. With the 150mm set on, the motor felt almost...
I do not have a cadence sensor. I will take a ride on the same trail today with the 170mm cranks that I rode the 150mm on a couple days ago and report. Thanks.
Thanks. I will test the various PAS modes. During more research last night I came upon one piece of information that indicated that it was important to use the provided 170mm Bafang crank arms as they somehow delivered a message to the torque sensor. I like shorter cranks and was hoping to ride...
Thanks for the idea. I live in an area with some quite technical trails that require a lot of delicate maneuvering when climbing. I was hoping find a solution that does not add another new response from me like braking while climbing. After my ride today I have switched from 5 to 3 assist levels...
So I just finished building and riding my new Cheeb withM600 motor. I have owned a Shimano E8000 for several years and I am right now disappointed with the M600 by comparison. The M600 seems to provide too much power when I do not want it , and not enough when I do. The Shimano and a Bosch I...
