    Entered My First Mountain Bike Race............with the Frey Beast

    I'm wondering if the disparity in range is because the Amflows in your races are locked at 25 km/hr. My friends Amflow is unlocked.

    Entered My First Mountain Bike Race............with the Frey Beast

    No idea what e-bikes took out the first three places. No way to find out either. Yes, I would have used assistance on steep descents if the track allowed for the speed. I would have used whatever level of assistance in Eco mode provided the greatest speed wherever I could. My max speed was just...

    Entered My First Mountain Bike Race............with the Frey Beast

    I couldn't say what assist mode my friend uses. From my observation there not popular e-bikes for comps over any sort of distance.

    Entered My First Mountain Bike Race............with the Frey Beast

    Following on from my recent first gravel bike race post, my same friend mentioned he was participating a mountain bike race for the second year in a row. This time on his Amflow Pro whereas previously he rode an analogue Specialized. Again the courses which varied in distance - 100km, 70km, 40km...

    G’day From WA (Australia)

    Will it make any difference? We have tighter e-bike laws in Oz, but they are not followed nor enforced. Ride sensibly and no one is going to bat an eyelid. I ride on the lowest level of assistance on both my e-bikes 99% of the time. The one in this thread doesn’t have a throttle, my other...

    My bike (and my wife’s) were covered by warranty after being unlocked by the dealer at purchase.

    G’day From WA (Australia)

    No idea - I didn’t ask any questions. I just paid the money to get the faster bike when I ordered it. i did the same again when I ordered the step through version for my wife.

    How does PAS work on the Zen Photon?

    Car manufacturers also build motors that most people will never exploit maximum revs, power nor maximum efficiency (max torque) in their day to day driving……..but there are always those few.

    How does PAS work on the Zen Photon?

    Yes the m620 does deliver at lower cadences because of its bulk torque. However this isn’t the first time I’ve heard posters on this forum being disappointed with the output of the m620, which has been due to their low cadences.

    What is the best gearing set up for an E-bike?

    I have a SRAM NX (HG) 50-11 cassette on a 60V M620, with GX everything else which has been fault free so far (1800 klms).

    How does PAS work on the Zen Photon?

    Nowhere in your posts have you mentioned your actual cadence. And based on your experience with the m620 it sounds like you are not spinning the cranks fast enough, hence your disappointment with this motor. The m620 is the Ferrari of e-bike motors……it loves to rev. If you can do that the m620...

    500C Display - Battery Meter never changes?

    I also have a 500c display to suit a Bafang motor. The plug on the display for the Bafang is different to the plug on display for the Ananda in that the male/female connection is reversed. Presumably so you can’t plug a Bafang display into a Ananda motor and vice versa.
