M820 Bafang - LIGHTCARBON LCE930 Frame (lightweight)

[clix]

Thx for update. For sure waiting sux, but I prefer waiting, to receiving frame, that is not fit for purpose.

Luckily , I really like the bike I have, but it doesn't have a motor. And now that it is getting hot, it is really limiting how much climbing/laps I am wiling to do on the local trails, before I run out of water and time.

Finally received my DVO Jade, I guess it's the end of the 18.1kg build
Still hope to be under 19kg, when the free will finally arrive

I also did some calculations, based on the measurements from CEF50 thread.
I am aiming to be at cca 21kg, but there will be nothing lightweight on my build.

Coil shock, cushcore front and rear, >1kg tyres, alu e1900 wheels, shimano linkglide drivetrain (heavy cassete, but supposed to last 300% longer, will see )

The only lightweight part will be lyrik fork instead of ZEB.

ahah yeah, enduro heavy parts!
On my side I have a revelation upgraded (similar to Pike) which is weighted at 1890gr, Sram X01 and hyper light ZTTO cassette (it might be crappy, we'll see ), light alloy wheels (asymmetric 28mm), and the BIG Jade coil !

My motor has been shipped! Still missing the battery… as soon as I have a date for the frame I’ll find a way to do a DIY if I have no news from Bafang

 

[clix]

I was also notified, that the motor has been shipped, but still waiting for the battery.

If you send me a kit (frame motor battery etc) I will make a video.

I did this for Dengfu and it achieved over 1 million views and they sold a LOT of frames due to the video

Hi Rob, make a conversation to you, check it please!

Wow! Love it, amazing color!
Is it the BTF14 battery? Diy?
Any feedback on the build?
Is it possible to have a closer picture for the headset?
Thanks!

it's using BT14 but still the old version without connector and need to modify the battery by own,
sure2 will take some photos for the headset for you..

Looks really good. To me, it has "Transition relay" vibe to it.

What is the frame size? What is the fork travel? How long dropper post were you able to fit? Did you paint it yourself or have it painted by ligthcarbon?

And of course, how does it ride?

Did you make the defense?

Thanks a lot!
It looks like you adpated the headset that was provided with the frame?
Not too complicated to setup?

 

[clix]

Looks like sharp edges of the headset are already rubbing on the cables..

in the video, charging is on the left

 

[clix]

@JimLee-Lightcarbon does the frame come with rubber grommets, that will seal the frame, where cables enter/exit?

It comes with the frame.

As brbr said, left one is for charging.

To me, it looks like they repositioner rear brake exit hole, so rigth one is now for that. But I am not sure.

sorry for my mistake. thanks.

 

[brbr]

sorry for my mistake. thanks.

but your question is 100% valid, a range extender port would be awesome!
but then we need a device inside the frame that will regulate the discharge of both batteries I guess
