Something under 50lbs with a 65nm motor and lightweight 500whr internal battery.
How about whispering in Bafangs ear for a lightweight motor @robridesemtb

Thanks, given Bafangs numbering system I assume that the M820 was more powerful than the 620 so I ignored it.
Now someone needs to make a frame for it.

There's about three on-going in the thread. Production Starting feb/march. One guy had ordered one, quite tempted myself to have a play around.

The problem in the US is that find the motors is impossible. I would have to order a frame and a motor/battery in order to get them all in the same year.

Doesn't seem to be a problem :

TC has ordered a frame/motor/battery and is in Arizona.

I have ordered a couple of frames from ICANcycling.com and had a very good experience with them. Their quality is good and there is not much to go wrong. But getting a motor from asia with the potential issues and no way to get warranty support seems iffy to me especial since the battery and motor are more of the cost than the frame.

Ive bought (conventional) frames from Ican over the years. A P9 and a Sno4. Both good bikes after installing a Slack-R headset. Also good luck with Flybike/ Carbonda. FM1002, FM909 frames.

The only trouble with ICAN is that they don't seem to be able to get as many motors as Dengfu does. I would have bought their eMTB frame but they could not supply a M510.
