    Bafang M600? Updated 8/14/22

    Ok just took a look. My firmware is 46.8 (CRX10NC4818i132046.8 I believe is the full number). There's tons of different firmwares out there though. https://github.com/OpenSourceEBike/Bafang_M500_M600/tree/main/Firmwares/Official/Motor/m600...

    Bafang M600? Updated 8/14/22

    yeah, agree its different tunes. The way the throttle is setup on mine is pretty useless in low PAS levels, where I pretty much spend all of my time. The throttle actually seems to work against the PAS in that it will actually reduce the assist if you need more than whatever it is set to push...

    Bafang M600? Updated 8/14/22

    Alright so an update here. Did a 51 mile ride this past weekend (excluding ferry rides). Burlington, VT area to Plattsburgh, NY. Mostly paved. 1) Setting the display to 9 PAS levels vs. the 5 stock seems to tame the motor a bit at level 1 and makes it pretty good for road use. I was using level...

    Moscow m3 35 degree stem questions

    might want to think about a handlebar with a larger backsweep too or instead, like a Jones Bar. Stooge Cycles also makes some nice ones.

    Bafang M600? Updated 8/14/22

    The bike came in and the motor is great from my limited use so far. It seems like an Ultra "light". Smoother, quieter and easier to use on the road than the Ultra (CANBUS). The low end is fairly tame. While it does seem to sometimes want to get you an extra mph or so on flats, it's not nearly as...

    Bafang M600? Updated 8/14/22

    Did a custom build with this company Eshion, in China. I've worked with them before and have been happy.

    Bafang M600? Updated 8/14/22

    Good to hear! Have a M600 bike coming next month, similar city style, and have been wondering how the motor will do.

    RST Renegade Leak

    Hello, I have a bike with an RST Renegade fork. Recently I noticed there seems to be some fluid slowly seeping out from near the rebound adjust at the bottom of the fork. The adjuster is not turning all that easily either. I can't seem to find a ton online about these forks. Any thoughts on...

    Bafang M200 and M300. Some Questions

    I don't know those two specific motors, but I can tell you the noise level can be significantly different from model to model. For example the Ultra/M620, with stock grease, is borderline annoying loud (not quite annoying though). The BBS02, on the other hand, is nearly silent. Both are...

    8-speed freewheel 11-32T

    If it's the same as the Moscow Plus, you want the DNP one. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07XYLZKFR May be cheaper on AliExpress.

    M600 City/Touring Bike?

    Looking to custom build a bike primarily for local use, but also some touring. Been throwing around the M500/M510 and M600 and have been leaning towards the M600 because we want something that can handle hills well and it has the higher 45kmh limit (I believe 500/510 top off at 25). With this...

    New Moscow plus 48v, 16a battery only showing 53.4v.

    I think the NCM displays don't read accurate. I had two and both would typically read around 53.6 after a charge. I converted to a KT controller/display and it reads above 54 now when fully charged. I have another bike that I can interchange batteries with and it reads above 54 too. I always had...

    My Electrical people… I need battery help

    https://www.fthpower.com has a good name, from what I understand. Haven't used them before myself though. I think they may also sell on Amazon too, but maybe at a slight premium.

    Bafang Ultra Greasing Gears

    +1 on corn head. Quiets down the motor a ton. Then again doesn't take much to quiet down a motor that only has a few specs of terrible grease on it out of the factory. I don't get it...

    Opinions

    Nah, you could convert for pretty cheap but you probably would have to do it yourself unless there happens to be someone local who would do it. It's really not that difficult, but requires some patients and spec'ing out. There's a ton of youtube videos though. The Bafang BBS02 or the BBSHD are...

    PAS not working on NCM Moscow Plus

    That's weird. So voltage appeared to drop considerably, the PAS quit and then the voltage bounced back up? Have you seen the voltage bounce around like that since the PAS came back? Does the voltage bounce around, out of the ordinary if you bike around just using throttle?

    Yeah, mid drive is night and day. I don't have that Trek bike but I've got a bike with a mid-drive Bafang motor and a Moscow Plus. I love the Moscow for flatter stuff, but a mid-drive is more like a diesel engine. It'll just keep going regardless of the hill, but it may not be quite as zippy off...

    Reselling Alibaba Bikes

    Thanks for all the replies. Really my main concern is just liability. I feel like I have a supplier in mind that I've bought a few ebikes from and they have been great to work with, before and after the sale. They were not the cheapest, but still night and day from what it costs to buy...

    Reselling Alibaba Bikes

    Thanks, yeah CE was just an example... ie went out of the way to get a product that has some kind of accepted international certification, vs some random POS for the lowest cost. That is a good point though that changing the item will mean it's not even CE compliant. As far as I know, CE has no...
