Yes, after seeing some youtube videos I took the plunge.... This was my first paint job and therefore I used rattle cans and plenty of time whilst waiting for front wheel to arrive.. Paint quality would be better the 2nd time for sure! They are not decals, I masked and sprayed everything...

I went for the M500 to stay legal. It is definitely less powerful that a Bosch, but to be honest I want (and need) to feel like I have put some effort into a ride so the M500 is very natural and quiet and works for me. The chainring is the standard one that comes with the motor - 34T I believe......

Finally finished and really pleased with set up. First time using a coil and I am converted! 216x63 Cane Creek with Progressive Valt coil. 170mm front travel. Being XL it is big but suits me (192cm and 98kg). With a bit of care I also managed to fit the standard Bafang chain guard with no...

So the front wheel finally arrived which meant I could finish the build. I wanted to say a massive thanks to @thaeber, @patdam and @Rob Rides EMTB for all their help and advice on the sizing. I did go for the XL in mullet format in the end with the Cane Creek 216x63 coil (-2mm bushing) and it is...

Interesting - outdated because it is not slack enough??? Maybe I am getting old, but I appreciate the feedback and agility of a slightly more vertical fork. (I do also sometimes hit the trail on a fully rigid 1990's Marin with 6" stem and end bars to remind me how to ride again - says...

WOW - 1.3m wheelbase - makes a Mondraker look small! I am planning mullet so appreciate the tips on the shocks. BTW, did you insert offset bushings in the shock or did the shock length sort the back wheel and BB height?

thaeber - thank you - really appreciate your opinion! Had a look at the SC5010 v1 geometry and reach is actually 449mm - hence why I was wondering about the 20" E05.... stack similar too... but it is not always about the numbers, sometimes gut feel counts for a lot. Enclosing the SC5010 v1 chart...

Your advice / opinion please before I buy from Melody... I am 192cm tall but prefer a more trail orientated lively frame (currently Santa Cruz 5010) rather than a slack downhill rig. In terms of sizing would you / anyone suggest: E10 19" large frame or E10 21" frame XL or even E05...

Hi guys. I am about to buy/make the Dengfu E05, but having reviewed various you tube vids, I am thinking of going down the M500 motor route (M510 not available yet...) I am wanting to do this to get a smoother an more natural feel. Any advice?

After smashing myself up on my Santa Cruz 5010, (my fault!) it is time to move to emtb.... About to embark on a Dengfu E05 journey thanks to Rob and his infamous Cheeb!
