I spent a bit of time Chatting with Tony and unfortunately for me and my countrymen, this frame is not available for import to the USA.
Defang has an exclusive distributorship with an unnamed Company here in the US. I am making assumptions that this will be the frame for the upcoming Luna X-2 (or what ever replaces the x-1).

Super excited to see how this Bike turns out. If someone outside the US wants to order 2 and ship me one let me know.

I was bummed to find this out today myself.

Hi !
Can someone tell me what is the expected size of rear rotor for the E10 frame (by default) ?
I need to know what kind of adapters I may need to fit a 180mm rotor on the rear.
Thanks for your help !

180 mm is standard E10 rear disc rotor size.

Hey guys,
one question about the shipping incoterms. Which one did you use? EWX, FOB or? It would make a massive difference when it comes to import/export customs. Huge thanks

 

[thaeber]

You need DDP, „delivery duty paid“. EXW is „ex works“, so You need to pick it up at the plant in China. FOB means „free on board“ wich means they pack an deliver it on board to Your truck / vessel / plane - but You have to pay seefreight / airfreight and all taxes and duty. Both options are „no option“? DDP is the only valid incoterm for You. The box will be shipped to Your door, including all freight cost, taxes and dutys. Thats what I did with my E10 frame, battery, motor, worked pretty fine. Hope that helps!

Huge thanks for the fast and clear answer! Suppliers often push for ExW or FOB, so wasnt sure if something better would work here. Thanks again and happy bike riding.

Did anybody attach lights to the Bafang M500/M600? Any tips on how to power some lights off the main battery so I dont need clunky stuff strapped to my handlebar?

[markvanhaze77]

Im not sure I know what you are showing. I meant how to wire it.

 

[Lucky Luke]

The new display

 

[thaeber]

And do You like it? Looks quite big, what model is it?
Is it a plug and play solution for the M500, or do You need some DIY adaption?

 

[Lucky Luke]

Plug and play. This is the model

Is it possibile to update the firmware also on this controller?

 

[Puschtrale]

Does anyone know if the e10 can be written as 29" front AND rear and how it performes? Would give it a try once but would need to buy an 29" er rear wheel first.

Yes it rides great as a 29er, that is what the frame is designed for

[/CITA]
Creo que no es posible porque el modelo DP160 es muy fácil. El DP161 tiene bluetooth pero no lo sé

Thanks for your reply. So maybe i should give it a try and leave the mullet setup for a pure 29er ;-)

Head Angle will increase by appr. 0,8 Deg. to ~64 Deg. Bottom Bracket will be appr. 10 mm higher. Expect a significant change in how the bike feels…

Maybe better for climbing steep uphills, less pedal strikes and less better performance downhill ?‍

 

[thaeber]

Sure - best would be to try it, and to find out what suits better for You! Please share Your Experience once You tried it!

Thanks !!

I have another question now.
I have mounted the derailleur but I feel it is too much on the rear. To my mind, the problem is due to the stopper on the black metal leg on which the derailleur is mounted, the stopper makes the deraillleur leg go too high (in white on the picture). I would like it to be in the green direction I draw on the picture. And idea if we can order a different leg for the E10 ?

 

[Kiwin]

And yet another question, while trying to mount the lower crankcase, the only screws I have left are the four ones on the picture; but they don't fit. Where is my mistake ?
