About me:
I am 6'2" I weigh 190 pounds with my full gear on. I ride steep downhill anywhere between 10-to-15-foot doubles and gaps. I like rough terrain, technically challenging both up and down. I want a motor that is supportive yet efficient.
Order process:
Ordering from China takes time, so expect a few months to complete the process. Communication was good and there were no hidden costs or fees. Customer service was great.
The Build:
I was worried that they didn't have an extra-large frame, but the large frame turned out to be a good fit for me. It's nimbler than my other bike, a canyon torque: on in an extra-large. I put a coil shock on it and ran it 160 in the rear and 180 upfront. This made the geometry slack, around 63° with a mullet in the rear. I'm very happy with how the bike and the motor perform. I changed the tire size to get past the 20-mph limit. This speedometer accuracy is not an issue since I track my rides with an Apple Watch.
The ride is nimble and fast. I don't feel as in control at high speeds as on my canyon, but I can handle trails and steep tight sections just as well or better. This is because of the slack head angle and the mullet in the rear. This bike pushes me to improve my jumping skills and technique. I'm still adjusting the suspension, but I don't think the 160 mm in the rear is a problem compared to my current 175 mm on the canyon. I haven’t bottomed out on the same trails and jumps i normally ride.
M510 and battery:
I'm impressed with the M510, it's my first full fat Bafang motor and I like it. It has enough power and range for me. I use an 840 Wh battery and I don't worry about running out of juioce. I used to have range anxiety on my M820 build, but not on this bike. The bike weighs 57 pounds, which is average for a full fat bike. But it rides lighter, and I can toss it around on trails better than the M820 extra-large build.
Paint quality:
The bike came in pieces and had some paint chips around the pivot points. But I didn’t mind too much about the free or near free paint job.
Final thoughts:
I would buy an extra-large if they offered it, which they might if they get 100 orders. I highly recommend this frame motor combination; the frame quality seems good. I think the bike feels more solid than the M820 frame I have. The only thing I would improve is the paint quality, it could be a bit better. Beyond that I'm very happy with the bike and the overall build.

Painting, for whatever reason is much less at the factory, again it's likely because they're buying paint in bulk etc. btw I was told by the factory the paint issue was due to a weather issues and they've resolved it.
