No the ultra is different
But for some reason I was under the impression The m600 can be made with steel gears too
but maybe I’m wrong or Luna makes a kit to change them out..?.
I’m not sure
Since this motor is running a little less power and torque than ultra maybe it’s not as big a deal

I wouldn't worry about it . I give my bike Hell because I have steel gears sitting in a box but so far, it's fine.

TForan, where did you get the steel gears? I assume mine has nylon gears which one day I will have to replace and I'd like to be in your position with replacements ready to go. So far (1,300 miles), no issues.

Bafang switched to the metal gear in February so if your motor was built after that it should be fine. A member of Endless Sphere that has had his M600 bike since last fall and rides it pretty hard for sure has the nylon gear and it hasn't failed on him and he rides it alot and in tough terrain.

BTW, the nylon gear should be quieter running with no lubrication requirements.
