Looks like a death trap.

For people who like to sing the praises of bafang yea it is since you’re the one that always talks about the low cost of bafangs even in this thread.

Nothing you said proved me wrong guy. Especially when you can’t cite links to the 400lb weight limit of the folder. You’re talking nonsense. Have no idea why you’re so angry and get hysterical. You have to accept that people won’t always agree with you. Don’t take it personal.

Well that’s not an economical Bafang over there is it? One of the main selling points of Bafang users is that the motors are so much cheaper than Bosch based e-bikes. The hydra is how much $5-6k? And with a 1500watt motor it’s even illegal in the US on all bike trails, lanes and paths. Ooops...

I don’t know of any e-bike on the market that is above 300lb recommended combined rider/ebike weight. So a 275lb rider together with his e-bike will exceed the combined weight limit of 300lb by a good margin. There are some steel frame touring bikes that are rated for 375lb (170kg) but those...

I’m talking about the second video. He clearly states in the first 30 seconds of the second video Bafang voluntarily sent it to him and he didn’t ask for them to send it. They sent it to him because he gave the first m500 from his first video a lukewarm review.

In the video at 0:28 he said he used the new updated M500 because Bafang voluntarily sent it to him after they viewed his first DIY video on YouTube where he gave the first non-updated m500 Bafang a lukewarm review.

I don’t make personal attacks and presume what people think they see intentional or not or whether their biased or not when it comes to products. What I know is that Bosch makes superior motors than Bafang and this video was further evidence of that. I’m not surprised the Chinesium made Bafang...

If the sponsor of the video has anyone it’s Bafang. Bafang went out of their way to send him the motor because they saw his first video where he gave the first Bafang motor lukewarm reviews on his DIY build. It’s also the only bafang motor that is certified in Europa and the UK. He says all...

No surprise here except for the bafang loving crowd. Hopefully this second video puts to rest the Bosch vs Bafang threads. Clearly Bosch is the better motor. Bafang motors are viable and fun as all e-bikes are but Bosch performs at a much higher level.

My phone never flew out but I never trusted the Bosch phone hub for that reason. I purchased a regular iPhone handlebar mount and use that instead.

I have not tried this with my allant8s but the rack for the allant7 is very similar to the one your trying to install. Since the allant7 and 8 share the same frame with the exception of the fork you might have a much easier time installing the rack from the 7. Only problem would be trying to...

Honestly your ebike is great but if you need your drops positioned that way you should have bought the flat bar version of the diamondback ebike. It’s very odd and not stable to be riding drops like that. You’re also damaging your cables.

And after a few rides I’m officially part of the dark side. Love the look in black. I do have schwalbe hurricane tires on order, can’t wait to toss the schwalbe marathon supremes in the trash where they belong.

The vibration you’re feeling is normal and is present periodically on my trek allant 8s too. I have no motor problems to report. If your motor was failing you would know it because it would have a soul crushing ride ending sound that is unmistakable. Most e-bikes are heavy except for a few new...

Do you have your Bluetooth turned on?

Thank you. Yes the lockdowns are a bit ridiculous now all things considered with the vaccines available. I agree about the colour. I would always get either matte grey/silver or dark green. However black would be the only colour I would accept if I didn’t have a choice like this time. It’s...

So true, my timing to go to the lbs couldn’t have been better, all the stars lined up so to speak since I wanted it initially in September. I’m happy that you were lucky enough and had the right timing also for your bridge club. You’re right the BC is very similar to the T500 and if anything...

Lol thank you it was great timing.
