    Need help understanding motor wattage

    In regards to the Bafang G06 geared hub motor for instance, what's the internal difference between the 500W and 750W? Is there a noticeable difference in performance? What about between the BBS02 and BBSHD mid drives? I understand that peak output is determined by the controller/battery...

    Bafang G520 vs Bosch CX

    Anyone tried the new Bafang G520? In their website it claims that its max torque is 90 nm which is way higher than top of the line Bosch CX motor. They're both rated at 250 w so I wonder if those claims are true.

    Help please choosing

    I've been studying bikes for some time the past two years. I was one of those ones that scoffed at spending even a couple of thousand on electric bike let alone a normal bike. These days I've come to appreciate quality but also knowing how to make a dollar stretch even still. I'm torn in...

    Bafang Hub Motor click noise what is it?

    I have a 750w RW Bafang motor making a click noise on the disk brake side. Seems to only do it with weight on the bike and slightly more during a left hand turn or sway. Tic tic tic. I'm thinking it may be a ball bearing or brake shoe is doing it. I keep everything very clean but I'm...

    Problem with Bafang motor?

    Problems galore: I have been having problems with the chain coming off the chain ring on my 2016 RadRover I picked up on Wednesday. The tech said to tighten everything up and get back to them. Everything was already tight but I also tuned the derailleur to make sure it wasn't pushing the chain...

    Bafang Bearing Question

    I've had my 500W 8-Fun BBS-02 on my Surly Ogre for almost a year, and I have had no issues ... until now. Within the last week or so, I've noticed a little "creak" coming from the front crank every time I pedal under load. It's not super loud, but it's noticeable. It's not the chain, which...
