    M820 Bafang - LIGHTCARBON LCE930 Frame (lightweight)

    Nice frame Jim, what many of us have talked about for a good while now. I hope you sell plenty and your design pays off.

    Correct, as of 2023, but do understand that I purchased my E10 before it had media presence shall we say, Dengfu offered a deal which I couldn’t refuse being a very very early adopter. In mitigation to myself, you can get remarkable deals on slightly used components. My Z1 forks were £170.00...

    I built my E10 M600 with 810Wh battery for less than £ 1500, so your bike is more than expensive in comparison, but thats just stats. Sorry you're not exactly quoting like for like. One is a DIY component build, the other a branded bike with full two year warranty, take it back to the dealer...

    Good choice, if you’re going to go 750Wh battery you may as well build a full fat and be done with.

    M510 power variations

    Release the bolts and put some “wax oil “ on and around the bolts and nuts, as long as there is no oxygen, there won’t be any corrosion. Tighten up the nuts and wipe off the excess. On the internal studs and the likes, look at any marine stores and they will have an anti corrosion grease to put...

    Bafang m820

    Run a Narrow Wide chain ring and you can throw it in the bin. I've now been running over 12 months on my M600 with a NW chain ring and never had a derail.

    There is something going on here which is not the norm, even here on EMTB forums there are a couple threads of very happy users of the motors. Lack of grunt sounds more like you are hitting perhaps the 15mph limit ( easily changed in the back menu on the display ), perhaps the battery is not...

    Savas, do you know what extender that is, my mate has a Focus Thron and is unable to buy an extender ( we keep running his 625Wh battery out). Thanks

    Interesting, we had at one stage 6 bikes fitted with the TSDZ2 motors, did a lot of miles in the U.K., summer and winter mud without too many problems. Never problems with the cranks or crank bearings if you did the basics of properly tightening the bolts and doing the very widely known mod of...

    Dengfu E10 - The CHEEB V1.0 - Discussion

    You would be better with the Australian Typhoon, more Enduro Geo. But no reports yet of any failures, but then I would doubt that other than Robs video of it being used in a jump park, that many of us are really pushing it to its limits.

    Lightweight vs full power eMTB - Anyone experienced with both?

    Horses for courses I’m afraid. Owning both you have to judge what group/ amount of climbing and speed you’re going to be travelling at to pick your stead. Your Battery capacity needed is simply a formula of energy needed to lift a weight up X height at X speed. My own use and bear in mind that...

    UK CHEEBers, any interest in a BESST community buy?

    Does anyone know who has the UK BEEST programmer ? Possibly its back with Rob ? Wouldn't mind borrowing it for a week or so if possible. Thanks.

    SZZS specific CEF50-main thread (initial builds and troubleshooting related only)

    I beg to disagree, my M600 motor almost totally disengages with no power ( that’s what the one clutch on the outer chainring bearings purpose is ) and I would just suspect it’s the fact you are having to pedal really hard to maintain any sort of comparable speed that you are blaming the motor...

    Delete this lol...back to the drawing board!

    With the OSF you won’t need the upgraded brass gear. In saying that I did a couple of the plastic gears with trials type riding getting the front wheel wedged and trying to force the wheel out using more power than should have been reasonable to not expect damage of some kind. But at £20.00 and...

    Have a look at EBike Non-hub Motor Drives - Endless Sphere where you will find info on virtually every conversion kit out there. From far too much time playing with conversions, at the moment the TSDZ2 kit is way ahead of the pack if you want similar to the Brose, Bosch that we know here. More...

    Only if you intend to recharge your battery in excess of 3K or more times. Tesla and others are advising this to get longevity of the battery, we on the other hand will be not interested in longevity but max Whs / weight.

    Home Batteries / Solar

    Guys I’m going to withdraw gracefully here and let you work out what’s best for you as it would seem the electrical parameter that of charging the EV’s and battery bank is your only focus and somewhat distracting you from the full set of electrical parameters. Do let us know though Rob how you...

    Home Batteries / Solar

    Ummm some of that is some what incorrect and that is the nub of the dilemma. Rob has the choice of paying on several tariffs for his electricity. He has chosen a variable tariff of 42P for 20hours and only 10P for the other 4 hours. He could also only pay 28.2P across the entire 24 hours...

    How so, I thought he was on 12P ( his words ) but even if he had 6 hours at 10P it still doesn't add up over 5 years.
