when you have a 800wh battery the weight difference is a measly 700g and you gain the option to tune it down to tq levels, but with more omph, better sensors and better software and all the benefits of running an axs derailleur wired. easy decision in my opinion...

Down tuning is the main reason i don't care how high the watts go. Its also nice to be able to adjust for rides with friends so everyone equals out and can stay together.

Backwards compatible apparently

Hope that's the case because if so it'll extend the lifespan of my Forbidden by a couple of years.

Backwards compatibility would probably force other brands *caugh* (Specialized) *caugh* to do the same. Its easily the biggest issue with e-bikes right now.

I've seen people with a 2 year old $10K paper weight because the motor is dead. That is a giant pill to swallow.

That and I'm also not sure if motor brands commit to a certain number of years of support and spare parts. Like phones for example you're guaranteed 7 years of security updates for example.

You'd be shit out of luck if after 4 years spare parts are no longer available for the $10,000 purchase you made.

One would hope that being a "tech" company, that DJI (or their now subsidiary company - Avinox) makes all the motors backward compatible. Given their focus is motors and tech and not bikes, Amflow being the exception, then it would make sense to leverage motor replacements as a business model.

Your motor burns out, easy, order another and replace. Companies like Giant and Specialized have a vested interest in making you turn over your bikes, they sell the "package".

Avinox only makes the motor, they don't care which bike it's attached to. Whether more orders come via bike manufacturers or shops/riders, matters not. They are still selling motors... oh and you would have to upgrade the controllers and display of course!!

Only problem is, the bike brands will not want their motor if it doesn't help them turn over bikes. Hopefully DJI is backwards compatible anyway, and play the long game. I think in the long run you would definitely win as a motor maker if you manage to do this. It would be a very big influence in my own purchasing decisions, I like to be free to fix my stuff

The bafang motors (M500, M510, M600, M620) have the same fixations points, the same wiring (connectors) since they are on the market. In add all necessary spare parts to maintain or to be upgrade if possible are available (+- 1 year after new rev exit).

Before avinox, chinese product doesn't exist for lot of people. Less now, but still exist few closed mind

Seems like m2 is a low power small battery package?
Click to expand...
I think most likely not. I think the new motor will be the new flagship and the current one will be positioned as the budget option a la EP6/EP801.

avinox is the hottest motor this year and everybody and their mum wants it so they are in a more comfortable position to have it their way instead of the oem way

although there is no way to obtain one as a customer so far, will be interesting if they change that with the 2nd gen

Im looking for the same ,on long summer rides Im looking for range. Several of my regular rides are just possible with 800 battery on tour +
The rumoured 920 battery and better software tune has got my attention

My guess would be the cheaper option is slightly heavier due to cheaper materials used and to give better heat management.
Slightly lower performance and 100 percent aimed at selling by the bucket load and being specced on shit load of entry level EMTB

All the designs are identical; it’s just a copy-and-paste of the new BH they’re launching with Avinox and the same routes. By the way, the M2 is an entry-level engine; there’s another one above it ;)

Pretty sure Whyte design their own frames. I highly doubt they are buying catalogue frames that are available to other manufactures. Have you got a pic of the BH?

They do design their own. This new one looks like the whyte elyte with a couple of small tweaks. Will be a weapon, loved the elyte
 
The Cycling World fairy Düsseldorf, Germany, is taking place this weekend. I will go there tomorrow as well. Some companies apparently don’t care about the embargo or made some mistakes.

So the brand ‘Megamo’ will launch their products later this year and they will have the new M2S engine. As you can see in the picture the M2S will have 130nm, 1300W, without boost. I was told it will have more with boost but wasn’t told how much more or how much it actually weighs or what was improved. I would be baffled if this sign will be there tomorrow as well….

Disappointing that they arnt speccing bigger batteries. An M2 motor would easily drain a 600Wh battery in less than 30minutes of constant climbing...

There are modes other than turbo you know! ;)

I think with 1,300w on tap it's gonna be important to tune your modes and cycle through them as needed so you're not wasting juice needlessly.

Yes obviously there isn't only turbo, we have boost also!

I mostly mean Megamo are confirming both the power increase and not to expect new batteries from third parties in April.

This is just pure crazy. Who needs that much power ?

It's getting to the point where governing bodies are going to start making regulations that impact all of us!

I defected to the dark side, or should I say "electric" side ~5 years ago and started off with a Shimano E8000 motor that literally has 1/2 the power output of today's new emtb's.

I have never felt undergunned on any of my "inferior" bikes and am currently riding 2 Bosch Gen 5 powered bikes that give me more than enough support.

Guess the market will always dictate what products merchants will provide, but where do we draw the line?

And bonus anyone interested in the upcoming Propain with Avinox (can't tell which variant of the new motor will be)
