In case anyone needs it, here's a little replacement grommet/dust guard for the Dengfu E10 DC barrel charging point (over time, mine eventually split and tore). (Similar to @Hagbard 's model above, but with a thumb-tab to aid in removal.) I think these are a 5.5mm / 2.1mm or 5.5mm/2.5mm plug...

For my E10/m510 build, I hardwired in a Magicshine ME1000 light to the 6V output from the m510. I bought an extra cable on Aliexpress for the m510 that had the remote display connector, along with a lead for a light, plus a throttle lead (unused). The ME1000 isn't necessarily the brightest MTB...

+1 for Archer D1X electronic/wireless shifting. Just finished installing and setup on my E10 build. Two notes: The Archer paddles are very comfortable / very happy with them. Archer have just released their next gen D1X shifter, with among other updates, an ability to be powered direct from...

Martin, I'll troubleshoot mine over the next couple of days and post here if/when I find a solution (though mine has only been tested in the maintenance stand, not having a chain on yet, so as @patdam notes, it may not actually be a problem at all, not having sufficient torque on the cranks)...

No need for invite or login for BESST. You use a python tool that spoofs the login server, and your hosts file in your computer to redirect requests to this locally running script. See threads here: - Bafang M500/M600 Tuning & The BESST Tool - Bafang M500 - BESST and limits And scripts here: -...

Those red/black connectors coming off the control/display cable are to supply a 6V front-light that can be controlled by the C240/241 display (long press the ‘plus’ button on the C241’s attached keypad). You can also get a triple-ended cable that attaches to an optional throttle. Re: torque...

Hey Ken, I bought a second smaller-capacity (so lighter) battery for my E10 from Hipack Battery Store on Aliexpress, May 2022. Shipping was fast (arrived before the motor and frame in the end!). 48V 12Ah for E10 was AU$454 back then. Hipack store is here...

I have a Garmin inReach Mini 2 / never needed it in anger, but nice to have along. Very small and light, though does take a little bit to get a sat connection. Great if only to provide your location to those at home, plus 2-way SMS when out of mobile range – but also can raise emergency with...

This ⇡ 100% - sympathy for the machine! 👍😆

@patdam, awesome work! 👏 Two questions: 1. How did you manage to get a drill into that tight space on the underside of the top-tube? 2. What kind of threaded insert did you use? Over on bikepacking.com they describe using Rivnuts (on a steel fork) / though I wonder about this on a carbon...

I went with a glossy frame / still part way through build as I wait for parts, but happy with the decision (hard to photograph). Black & glossy, but can see the carbon fibres when looking close. Here is a close-up of part of the frame from an earlier post:

@Jahbak while most of us doing DIY eMTB are using M500/600/510 Bafang motors now, a light(er)weight option would be the M820 (2.3kg) - though after battery etc. you’ll be hard to get away without adding an extra 5kg even before charger & solar panels. I don’t think it’s necessarily an unwise...

Southern Tas here! 🤣 Currently building my Dengfu E10/m510 as the successor to a BBSHD Polygon Siskiu D7.0.

Wow, @Dado, that’s very impressive! It doesn’t happen to have (or could have added) ANT+ LEV integration? The ability to place a module like this somewhere in the frame, and then integrate with or simply display parameters on a Garmin bike computer or similar, would be pretty awesome...

Looking great @bram.biesiekierski !
