    Bafang M500/M600 Tuning & The BESST Tool

    It is not. My understanding is that these firmware versions are sent directly by Bafang to individuals, and circulated (via forums like this) across the internet.

    My E10 frame questions

    1. No, there's no display (or app for that matter) that can change the settings. Only option is to change to a firmware that has a different power profile, and for that you need a BESST tool. 2. I don't think many people have. 3. Very few people have any of those sensors. I suspect you're...

    Bafang M500/M600 Tuning & The BESST Tool

    It felt more natural than the abrupt stop of the previous version. I did ride a few technical trails and didn't find it an issue, even though it sounds like it should be Any thoughts on the stuttering? Is this simply a calibration issue?

    Bafang M500/M600 Tuning & The BESST Tool

    Today I rode about 15 miles, starting on 85% battery and ending on 25%. Mostly in assist 2, but used plenty of every level to try them all out. No significant hills. Not sure I'd want to say whether that represents a drop or an increase in range. The lack of power intuitively suggests a...

    Bafang M500/M600 Tuning & The BESST Tool

    Thoughts on the 46.8 M600 Firmware.... Coming from 46.7 I think if I had to pick a single word to describe the new firmware, then I'd pick "calm". 46.7 is pretty ridiculous; loads of power, instant ramp, loads of fun but pretty crude. 46.8 feels far, far tamer. Way less of that instant woosh...

    As far as I'm aware, you can't.

    UK CHEEBers, any interest in a BESST community buy?

    I figure if I've got 5 power levels (who uses 9!) then I might as well use them all. Gives me a chance to eat a doughnut on the climbs. I'm more than happy with the amount of oompf on tap, I'd just like the ramp up to be a little more gradual. Might save me getting a saddle up the butthole...

    UK CHEEBers, any interest in a BESST community buy?

    Hey. Yup I do. Was going to update mine also, but really wanted someone else to go first! Will probably do mine on Monday once I put the frame back together, so should be able to post the BESST to you probably towards the end of next week?

    Looks like there's a new 48v M600 firmware out, see attached. Anyone tried it yet?

    I thought the odds were so low that I didn't bother. Plus learning how to get carbon fibre repaired feels like a useful skill to have, as it's only a matter of time!

    Dengfu E10 - The CHEEB V1.0 - Discussion

    Sounds awfully like my experience. There's a thread I posted somewhere on here called "cheeb issues" or similar. Have a read of this and see if it helps. (Short version, sounds like something is wet. Use a hairdryer to dry everything thoroughly).

    Short version is that I suffered some chain suck when riding normally on a road. This caused the rear mech cage to be pulled up into the chainstay. Now when I say into, I mean INTO (the hole was 40mm long, 4mm wide and all the way through the carbon). So now my cheeb is currently in pieces...

    One I designed today whilst my frame is in pieces (don't ask, maybe I'll post about it later, still traumatised). This is a cap designed to fit in the big hole at the 'bottom bracket' of the dengfu e10. My intention is to stuff some foam behind it, and the cap will keep that foam in place.

    Bafang M500 and M600 motors

    Saw those, but shipping to the UK is more than the cranks themselves. I'm just as much cheep as I am cheeb!

    @Mabman out of interest, how tall are you?

    Bafang M500 and M600 motors

    On another note, the cheap aliexpress cranks linked a few posts above arrived today, and as @Sandur-Rx suggested, they don't quite fit on the left hand side. I don't think it's quite as bad as suggested though. Here's the clearance between the crank end and the motor: Not exactly...

    Bafang M500 and M600 motors

    @GandalfR @Sheff73 it's dead easy to bypass the BESST login screens and gain full access to the tool. There's a webpage all about it here. In short: 1) Download and install Python3 2) Install the simplejson package using pip (sounds hard but isn't, just google it and follow the instructions)...

    A couple of fairly poorly modelled little doohickies aimed at making the e10 a little less prone to water induced issues. Cable cover is desiged to slot into the cable ports at the headtube and cover off 2 holes if you're only presently using one cable. Power plug is designed to be pushed...

    Bafang M500 and M600 motors

    Eeek. Ah well, given that I'm bound to cock up the first foreshortening I attempt then I'm not too shy of a bit of filing. I'm also lucky enough to have access to a pretty decent engineering shop so will be able to get the cranks blasted and refinished once I'm done.
