It is my perception as well that if you mind how you ride, where you ride here in the US is pretty much open season. Fortunately most of the Emtb riders here are cross overs from mtb, at least the ones that you might run into on actual mtb type terrain. Because some newbie on his no matter what...
I inquired the same regarding the BMS and got the same answer from Herbert. The casing size restriction is not my favorite part of the E22 architecture in regards to that and also being able to fit more ah's. However it has been proven by others that shrink wrapped batteries up to 21ah's can be...
Long time sports fan and have hung banners at World Cups bitd but finding my interest in WC/XCO whatever they label it has waned over the years, the last few especially. Due to the fact that most of the races are across a whole country and a pond to boot they run early enough in the a.m. so that...
Search around for any forums about M1 Sport-Technik eBikes as they also used the TQ motor and there may be someone that might know about their inner workings or a similar problem/solution? I would wager that brand sold more TQ motored bikes than Haibike......and being a German company, well...
@Cigales I worked out the details for my 52v 780wh 40A BMS battery with [email protected].. Am very pleased with the service, shipping and results. Tell him LeftCoast eBike sent you!
I found that the mostly internal full length housing lacking stops and the short distance of the housing when exiting the chainstay to the derailleur prohibits the installation of a shift sensor on the E22 frame. I just back off before shifting much like I always have even before using e assist...
Main reason for me to spec the Christini adapter, keep in mind there are two offset offerings and I got the greater one, was to be able to use a smaller than 40t chainring and ultimately ended up with a 36t and 11/50 cassette which I have been happy with. Gave a bit better chainline in the 11t...
Totally agree. However, at least here in the US, if the fines for a company selling out of regulation ebikes start to happen the companies will stop. There are way more M620 bikes being offered than as mentioned from various companies that mostly are just rebadging Ali bikes. The hunter type...
Sorry to hear about your incapacitation. For sure those with any sort of disability can benefit from using e assist. My son is a quad and has four different modes of transport to use for up to a tracked vehicle for fairly uneven terrain.
However what I got out of that article was that bikes...
There is more than enough power to use the stock ring.....reason I switched over was to get into the middle of the cassette more for the steep climbs around here. I wouldn't let that part get in the way of putting it together but I may have missed another reason you had above and apologise in...
It really is unfortunate that Bafang has gone the proprietary route because their efforts suck. At least Bosch and the others have a handle on programming that makes for a decent riding bicycle for most of the folks that buy them. The main complaint seems to be the legal imposed speed...
It is a quality bit of kit for sure Neeko and for what it does there were no other options I could find. Sometimes you just have to pay the piper! Kind of a shame that Bafang just didn't go that route to begin with though.
Battery cases are the same for both frames. There are a plethora of that style case batteries on AliExpress/Baba in different ah ratings and compared to what companies like Bosch/Specialized etc. that demand a thousand + USD can be considered a good deal. However without knowing what cells are...
That is unfortunate. Not sure of the reason in your case but their are many supply issues going on and the last month or so the main battery manufacturing area in China has been in lockdown.
After not being happy with the stock 840wh battery performance I enlisted help from DingTai battery and...
Justin is the man in my book. I have met him numerous times and he is about as humble and gracious a person as I have ever met. He has been involved with e assist for years and built his business based on furthering knowledge of the possibility of e assist and walking the walk, or should I say...
I use that exact same system from Grin on my drop bar eBike except I activate the regen via a momentary button switch attached to the left brake hood. Whenever I want to slow down it is the first thing I reach for because it acts like a brake drag basically. When bombing downhill at 30+mph with...
Make a play for the Innotrace controller then and install it? Bafang's stock tunes on both CanBus and UART are horrible and I will be surprised if you can live with the stock format. While there are lots of folks on the CanBus deal from what I see it is proving hard to crack. If you are familiar...
Bottom line is that the extra nm torque of any assist motor is harder on drivetrains that are developed primarily for non-assisted use. The fact that the M620 has so much available, and yes you will use it because its there, it just magnifies the situation. I hope you get a bike with the UART...
36t/11-50 full range. To me eBikes are like riding 125 class MX bikes and need to be in the proper gear to stay "on the pipe" and the M620 doesn't lug well I have found. Did switch to 11spd here recently due to wearing out the stock SRAM GX stuff in a thousand miles with a cheap steel Sensah...
