Been riding a Bafang M620 Ultra for about 2yr now. I simply couldn't ask for any more. What I just witnessed explains the reliability and power of this motor. Thx You for braving the "evil" China to bring us this report!
Very happy to see you have brought BAFANG systems to center stage on the channel. I sincerely hope that with this huge and dare I say expensive piece of journalism you’ll begin adding BAFANG motors to your usual lineups of various systems! Extremely. Happy with this work. Cheers from Ca.
That was an amazing inside view of Bafang. I have been building custom e-bikes with Bafang motors for 3 years, and now they are quality company. Now I have even more trust and excitement about using them! Thank you guys for the great video!
I got to tell you. The lighting, the camera moves, lighting, brilliant.... really beyong good... I am a Video Cameraman. (43 yrs) Looks like Steadicam work And of course. Thank you for keeping us up-to-date. I hope it's monetarily satisfactory
Another great video Steve, very informative and enlightening as anything "Chinese built" has to prove to be capable of outperforming all others just to be accepted by the "western world"! Lucky you to get access to the Bafang company 👍🏻🙂
It is not accepted but suppression of competition. Lot of DIYers building their own emtb using m510 and the beast m600. If you want overpowered motor g620 lol... that motor is on another level. After this yay the demand will now be crazy
@@RoissyAngel I've around 50000km across two Bafang motors, both have survived Irish winters and lots of abuse, unlike Bosch. Let's not also forget that the motors are fully user serviceable and parts are easy to get. None of this closed system crap
I built a 150mm rear travel with an M500 during the pandemic due to the unavailability of the mainstream products. Bafang replaced the original motor due to a defective clutch when I received the motor, but with over 4000km since, it's been super reliable with no complaints. Affordable replacement parts are also a bonus.
Same here. I ended up with A Luna Z1 that uses the Bafang M620 Ultra. 160nm at 1500W. I reoutfitted the bike with AXS Eagle wireless derailer and dropper. Plus an EGGrider controller that offers Bluetooth tuning. I'm on my 3rd set of tires after somewhere around 10k kms. The motor just keeps delivering!
Dear Bafang, get back to basics. That means BBS series, BBSHD best motor ever made. Made to last,easy to replace any part. Extremely rare thing these days. I know it's very bad business to make things that are high quality and long lasting,but on the long run your company will only grow. I would love to see upgraded BBSHD, with more power, this thing would sell like crazy!
Ive loved my BBSHD''s, my current one has 35000km and its on all original parts, serviced every few thousand km with a simple regrease and new paper gasket. ive had it thru absolute hell with irelands wet winters
@@likfrikbik I dont think see a link from you- to bafang holding a boardmeeting with investors over your “need better quality” comment on the bike channel, no.
So, after years of dismissing the world of DIY ebike conversions, now that they make OEM systems, you guys are all over them? Bafang would not exist without the support of the very bike riders you ignored for so long. And still do, quite honestly.
I’m an average e-bike owner having a hub drive city bike and high end EMTB and have ZERO interest in some cobbled together DIY bike with batteries hanging out, loose wiring, etc. Just saying.
My first ebike was a DIY bafang bbshd on a high end Fuji mtb hardtail frame and it was the best cost effective introduction ebike I could have asked for! I'd still be riding it today if I didn't brake the frame. I sold the bbshd kit off it and pulled the trigger on a Bafang m620 29er compleat bike and am loving life. I agree bafang DIY kits are awesome even though I don't own one anymore I rate the highly❤
Incredible cranks, glad to see the people that benefit from my purchase. Much appreciated from Canada 🇨🇦 155mm were a huge upgrade to my ep8 Santa Cruz Heckler, thanks again
That was a great video! The crew at EMBN should be proud of that one. Was really cool to see a behind the scenes of testing. Bafang is definitely on the radar more these days for me. But if any this highlights a problem the e mtb industry has. If the bike i buy comes spec'd with whatever motor, i have no option as a consumer to buy and swap out different motors to try and own. I have to buy an entire bike and the system they tell me to ride . Ide like to honestly try or buy a bafang motor as well as others. Industry standard bolt pattern or adaptor jigs would be great.
I would love to see the competitors testing as my Shimano’s EP8 in my experience dies after riding through a puddle 😩 covered by warranty (currently) be still a pain when you’re along way from home.
Congratulations on the excellent article, anyone who has had other engines and can compare, knows the difference it makes to have a BAFANG engine, in terms of durability, maintenance, access to engine parts and configurations, costs, power, torque and the pleasure of switching to other brands on the trails.
Bafang are better than most embt think,I have hub and mid drive bafang bikes and am very happy with performance, my rail is my favorite still with Bosch cx.
I think a lot of people look down on bafang, but their facilities are second to none. My latest bike has the 510 motor, and it's actual peak output is over 700w
@davidwalker2144 price won't come down in the USA because we are in a recession as well as sanctions and a new 25% taffiff. Welcome to the world of Predatory Capitalism through rules based order. Fortunately for us Americans, the free world and global South have a more equitable plan to rectify that issue. Fingers crossed.
Something tells me Bafang is not quite content with taking a back seat to other well known name brands. Now if we could just get a independent company that tested all the Ebike motor to this level and beyond in the lab and real world.
I was in Shanghai a couple of years back. The size of this city is beyond belief for a humble European. My translators, everyone else on the team and everyone i was in conctact with were incredibly kind, help- and respecful
The water testing is impressive. Other motor manufacturers should be worried. I think between repair and water ingestion, riders are getting to the point of changing motor loyalty to the one that offers the best reliability in ALL emtb conditions and ease of repair.
@@freeforester1717 Maybe if you have tools and equipment and confidence / experience, but that’s probably only 5% of owners so not sure your comment stands up.
@@mintsauce101 my comments referred to repair by competent mechanics; many of those guys complain about the lack of parts availability for other marques, for no other reason than a stranglehold on said parts by the manufacturers, which force riders of broken or damaged motors to buy entire new units or even a new ebike, all for the want of specific parts; this is not Bafang’s philosophy.
@@freeforester1717 You're right! Unlike Bosch, Bafang is an open system. Literally every broken part can be replaced. And it's not that difficult. I speak from experience.
I still have my bbs02 and bbsHD to be honest the bbs02 (updated mosfet version) is all I need. Lets just hope they are installing some power overload or short sensing, even a fuse 😂 to stop you being able to brick the controller by plugging in a broken speed throttle. Thats 2 motor controllers I have went through because of that. That was back in 2015 or so.
surprised to not see the M435 and M635 for BSA bottom bracket mounting. These are the most silent of all, and with the addition of a great torque sensor, they are the very best out there at the moment. more powerful, better heat dissipation, very responsive and extremely quiet, significantly more quiet than the M510 while pushing power levels of the M560 and M620.
I am going down the route of converting a "standard" bike with a Bafang kit. I have a branded ebike, but now I want something where I can replace and service all the parts myself, or as much as. Even software is available to program the controller for power delivery. Yes, integrated components are pretty, but I value practicality too.
@@embn I'm into fat bikes, so I've got a Surly Wednesday and fitting a BBSHD 48V unit. Later, I'm looking at putting a Mastodon Pro front fork on. Just increased my rotors from 160mm to 180mm. I've found I need the bigger discs for control. It's pretty hilly where I live. My branded fat ebike is heavier than the Surley. That one came as a 250W class II for Europe, but uses the same controller and motor as the USA version. Fitting an eggrider display allows to unlock the power settings. The same eggrider display can be used to program the BBSHD controller.
Maybe it's time to consider trying the Chinesium unit. All I really need is a frame with the DU and controller. Lord knows I have enough 'parts' available to build a decent bike...
@@octane_matty are you riding the m560? I ordered a bike from superhuman (weaponx) and it comes with the m560. Not a lot of videos out there but I am concerned because the ones I saw make the motor sound crazy loud!
The best move Bafang could make is to have a range of their motors set up as replacements for existing bikes. I’d really consider putting the Brose in the bin if I could swap it for a reliable, waterproof and well engineered Chinese alternative.
The big concern about e-bike systems is battery safety, obviously not helped by cheap Chinese made units that are built to a price point. After seeing the facility are you convinced that the safety standards of the Bafang systems are as high as the more “reputable” companies?
I bought a Trike last week, placed a front motor hub wheel and planning to convert into a Dual using the Bafang as the 2nd motor or the based motor. Great video, tells alot of the quality over the reputation of China made products for quantity.
Every project has to grow with updates technology and ebike motors are relatively new on the market. All manufactures can have some issues and the response to fix them is the most important…!!! Very interesting visit, amaizing facility with a lot of hitec technology, I loved and true is change my vision of BAFANG ebike motors….have to start considering them 👍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I bought a new 2024 full suspension Buzz Bike here in NZ made with Bafang components. I'm on the third motor after doing just 800km and close to requesting a full refund. I suspect Bafang makes the grade on mechanical components but will cut corners on electronic components to remain competitive.
Best Ebike motors are the Motors without limitation 😁👍🏻 especially since bafang allows "Custom tuning" I prefer my custom build delimited ebike with Bafang motor Rather then expensive limited at 25km/h ebikes
I love my G510 52v nominal voltage 30a controller 1740w peak power.(Biktrix juggernaut FS) I use it to tow my dog and his chariot behind me.(Burley Coho xc) he is 11 now and can’t run as far as I can ride an e-bike. It’s quiet too. I wanted to get a pinion MGU bike. But after hearing it, no thanks. I have gotten up to 53 mph 85 kph before and can beat any $10k + bike uphill and have 27.5” x 3.8” tires.
I have a ebike reighn with a Yamaha motor . I just bought a bafang mid motor for my commuter bike. I think bafang motors are actually really good. they just get a bad rep because they are from china.
I'm SICK of being the butt of jokes where I am.. about me building my own DIY chinese eMTB!! I built it around a BAFANG M510 motor, whenever my eMTB is parked up outside the many shops here I am affiliated with, EVERYONE looks at my bespoke DIY eMTB...and not the other "brands" - It is the best bike I've ever built!! and the greatest satisfaction when riding it! and yes.. It is BEAST! and yes... It is mostly CHINESE (but isn't everything in the bicycle world!! just "they" won't admit it!!)
When looking at those super clean and tidy rooms it reminds me of a company I used to work for. Before important visitor arrived, the walls got painted - after 10 years of neglect. Those rooms sure look different in a everyday situation 😉
There are so many motor makers today, you can chose fantastic motors, same from Bafang, but what Bafang makes the best choice is price of their products and no stupid SW and tuning restrictions.
Did you learn something new about Bafang from Steve's tour? Have you tried a Bafang motor yet? Let us know below 👇
What an amazing company, a factory churning out cheap motor for weapons, that will be affordable for the buyer.

My Bafang BBSHD took me up Helvellyn in one continous almost silent climb that emptied the 750W battery in 25 minutes and the motor was barely warm.
Not familiar with that location/dist/elev, but that sounds like a quick drain. Can you elaborate, as I assume this is meant to be a good thing.
Just bought my first e-bike ever. Fatbike with Bafang M510 for 2000€ on sale and it is awesome.
I want to hear about ebikes that use Bafang including the most powerful motors.
Look up Dengfu Bikes, their E55 uses the Bafang M620 1000w 48/52v 160nm motor

It is BEAST! and yes... It is mostly CHINESE (but isn't everything in the bicycle world!! just "they" won't admit it!!)
When looking at those super clean and tidy rooms it reminds me of a company I used to work for. Before important visitor arrived, the walls got painted - after 10 years of neglect. Those rooms sure look different in a everyday situation 😉
There are so many motor makers today, you can chose fantastic motors, same from Bafang, but what Bafang makes the best choice is price of their products and no stupid SW and tuning restrictions.
