    M500 headlight

    I would have not suggested that if USB and the display isn’t mentioned. Without the USB, the controller is the only option. But I digress. I’d rather have a powered light than run another cable to the motor. Also, with it’s own battery, I don’t have to worry about another thing sucking up juice...

    Get something like this: And a short USB cable so you can charge it when the battery goes low

    Bafang M500 and M600 motors

    Can anyone with either of these motors tell me if you have pedal creep? I’m shocked when I noticed a couple of weeks back, that if I rest my foot on the pedal when it’s between 2-4 o’clock while at stop/standing still, the pedal moves down ever so slightly without the bike moving at all. I’m...

    Dengfu E05 - Bafang M600 Build

    You have to slam the battery in order for the locking tab(boss/stud) to click in place. You’ll hear a distinct click. That’s one of my issues with this frame, the retaining ends and caps are plastic, it’s hard to trust it. Notice the Velcro strap on the downtube? That’s my security net. It’s...

    Another eMTB Newbie

    Hey y’all! I’m from San Francisco Bay Area and new to eMTB. I decided to build my first eMTB myself, considering it’s hard to find a stock, and the second hand market is asking near the price of brand new. Here’s my build thread: Eclipse Mach1 E05/M600 and a pic of the bike. Ride safe everyone!

    Dengfu E05 - Bafang M600 Build

    I took it out on another short 16 mile ride. Most of it were relatively flat, with at most 3% grade, then took it to a short steep of about 70% grade hill, 591ft. Over 800+ feet. It isn’t much but it’s my first ever climb of this high, and with just 36T at the rear, I had to put it on PAS7. I...

    Thanks. Even prettier in person, if I may say so myself. A bit wash out in the photos. The quote is from the great Greg LeMond

    Dengfu E05 - Bafang M600 Build

    Folks from USA can’t get the E10, so I thought my next best option is the E05. I pulled the trigger mid-July and got the frame and the rest of the stuff 5-6 weeks later. I like the look of UD carbon fiber, so I thought I’d leave it but when I saw it, it’s apparent it needed some cover. Heard...
