I too haven't had any creeking in the headset.
This headset will be arriving for next week. So I'll let you know how I get along with it.
Truth be told, I haven't had issues with this headset either. Granted, I'm aware that some members have expressed concern for the cables being damaged if...
No.
Sag is just the amount the suspension compressing under a riders body weight.
Most mtb/emtb suspension designs will encompass sag into the equation to ensure that regardless of frame size & body weight, the consistency of the kinematics are near enough the same.
The same is true for using...
I know what you mean😄. I've built up so many, it's second nature to me now.
Just take your time, don't rush and you'll get it done.
Any other problems or concerns, don't hesitate to reach out👍🏿
I take it thar your caliper is connected onto the brake hose (olive and crush washer installed). Usually most of us go from the base of the frame (where the motor sits), and route both the rear brake hose and gear outer cable.
A little hack (Tip No.1)
Brake hoses are pliable. Meaning that if...
Curious. Your cable grommets and cable routing is from the top of the downtube. But I was of the belief it would be around the headtube area.
Did you make those cable holes yourself or was that how the frame arrived?
Good question🤔
The cable grommets (at first) did make me question how many cables could be routed through each side of the headtube. But I have seen examples of CEF50's with headtube cable routing on the forum. And no one has expressed any issues.
If I had to build another one, yes. I probably...
Personally, I'd look to get the motor serviced/repaired/exchanged if you're encountering that much resistance.
Currently, I've only put 200miles on my m820. But I'll bare your experiences in mind. I suspect your mileage is relatively low in the grand scheme of things.
Any issues or hick-ups...
Gottya. That doesn't sound right.

32sec in the video, I turn the spider/chainring with minimal effort. You can hear a whining sound as well as the freehub engagement.
At present, my usual avenues for sourcing spare parts for bafang...
I'm not having that issue in terms of resistance. I can hear a whining sound from the motor. But that's common on some geared motors.
Try moving the chainring anti clockwise with the chain somewhere in the middle of the cassette. You should only hear a whining sound from the motor. But the...
FYI,
New design for the headset cable routing for the CEF50.
It looks similar to the Nukeproof ebike headset.
I'll share with you all my experiences shortly👍🏿
Sorry guys, tried to share a quick clip on the thread showing the CEF50 next to the Specialized Levo. Not too sure why it's not sharing, but I'll try and take pics instead👍🏿
I swapped the chain out once I got back. But it was too dark to reattempt the climb that same day.
I may look into those one up edc tools for the CEF50 along with future builds👍🏿
I had the same thought in terms of upping my cadence. I did reattempt a steeper climb a couple of days ago. Until,
I snapped the friggin chain😅.
Yeah, 75nm of torque. I should have seen it coming.
To add insult to injury, I forgot my multi tool with a spare quick link and chain breaker.
Oh...
Hi there,
Sincere apologies for the delay (work commitments).
Please bare with me. It would be easier for me to get my colleague to forward the 43v firmware to you or share it to this thread.
If I anticipate a delay in my colleague doing this, I'll step in and share it to this thread👍🏿
It would be nice if Bafang implemented a range extender adding 200-250w.
yes, third party range extenders can be used if you choose to go with a third party battery.
But considering that this is the same Bafang who were the first to truly implement the "plug-n-play" concept within their ebike...
Usually, I do use a wind muffler around the gopro. But on this occasion, I thought it best to have the unedited sound.
But you are right. The motor isn't as loud with the human ear compared to the gopro audio recording. But I'd be lying if I said that the motor couldn't be heard when achieving...
