Electric bikes: Fitting Bafang M500 (torque sensor) into Shimano frame

Fitting Bafang M500 into Shimano frame

Since it's harder to find Bafangframes for sale this looks promising! This looks like an adapter for fitting Bafang motors into Shimano frames! Kim Womack is developing. 

About the M500: 95 Nm of torque it delivers consistent, powerful and efficient support. Two speed sensors and a torque sensor ensure perfectly-tuned and sensitive power output. Lightweight (3.4kg) system.

"Something about to become reality. It involves Shimano-frames and certain chinese motors" - K. Womack

Hope it will feel tight and sturdy enough, we will see when this hits the market. Nice to see that the Bafangmotor is smaller than the Shimanos and therefor can be adapted. 

Pictures from K. Womack. Thanks.

K. Womack: "I designed custom plates to make it fit."

All chinese scooters use either the gy6 engine in a long or short case. Or they used the Loncin engine.

 All chinese scooters use either the gy6 engine in a long or short case. Or they used the Loncin engine.

all chinese scooters mirrors and brake stay/handles are the same. and interchangeable

gy6 is original Honda manufactured in the early 80's, and then licsensed to other manufacturers

Loncin is original Honda manufactured in the early 80's and was also licsensed to other manufactures

but both are "Honda Clones"

loncin varry over thier respective manufacture origin, such as some were altered to include a clutch, some have a 4 speed shiftable gear set. Some have a selectible gear set, but with and auto clutch..

But both engines originated From Honda engineers.

The honda z50 was the first "Loncin" engine, but was not named that until it was sold/licsensed to others..

50, 125, 150 gy6 aare interchangeable, top ends and bottom ends. //My comment, dont think this is correct.Parts on the 125 and 150cc do not interchange with smaller motors. //

200cc gy6 and up sizes are on thier own, and do not interchange with the 150cc and lower models.

There arte 12 different camshafts for optins in the 150 and lesser size engines. A1 thru A6 are stock options, and A7 thru a12 are performance options.

all cranks are the same, all cam chains are the same, cylinder heads are the same other than the center bore.

Piston rods are different only in length.

160,170 and 180cc kits are available but require a slight case millimg mod to fit the case properly.

A 125 or 150 engine case can accept this upgrade and mod, but the 50cc can not. because the piston rod is too short.

First shipment to customers of Kaabo Mantis King GT

 Best electric scooter out there now?

Here are some pictures of it!

First the battery:

Big 72V battery with 35Ah capacity!

Love the tube design of the Nami Burn-E Max 2, looks raw. Like a cousin to the Italjet Dragster for you guys who remember that bike / motorcycle / moped. I believe a new version is out by the way.

48V

"Den kända och populära favoriten E2S V2 har nu fått en helt rå MAX-version med en högre vattentäthetsgrad! MAX-versionen är utrustad med en ny och ännu starkare motor på 1200W (maximal effekt) och uppgraderad LCD-skärm. Dessutom har batteristorleken ökat till imponerande 48V och 13,5Ah (650wh) vilket ger en optimal räckvidd på 55 km! Här har acceleration, klättringsförmåga, display, IP-certifiering IP56, räckvidd, hjulstorlek, ram och topphastighet uppgraderats!

Fantastiskt testresultat på tek.no och tärningskast 5 på nettavisen.no! Produkten fick 8/10 - mycket bra och blev rekommenderad av Tek.no, den kom också snabbast upp i backtestet och testades till 40 km i räckvidd. Här är några utdrag ur testet på Tek.no:

"450 mil på min e2s max, inget som gått sönder. Inte ens punka och jag har kört offroad me skiten flertalet gånger" - S. M. Sandehl

"Ett litet odjur i backarna, E-wheels E2S V2 Pro har ingen anledning att spara på krafterna"

"Det första som slog oss när vi först accelererade med E2S V2 Pro, är att den har bra kraft"

"Mycket klättringsstark cykel med lång räckvidd", skriver Tek.no. 

E2S V2 PRO var blixtsnabbt upp på backtestet och krossade sina utmanare. Xiaomi Pro tog 42% längre tid, Ninebot Max G30 var 36% långsammare."

Bättre skaffa en Hiboy S2! ?

Hiboy S2 MAX har 48V batteri (11,6Ah) istället för 36v och gör 20 mph, dvs lite snabbare än G30.

Laddare 52V 2A

450W motor, 500w säger ibland.

Ninebot MAX G30 | The HIGHEST RATED Electric Scooter on Amazon | Comprehensive Review

Riktigt bra review!

----------------  -----------

German version(G30D), they have 3 Capacitors instead of 1, so they can handle more power, then just flash your desired software on on it and its just like a G30P.

45km/h?

Har en G30P som bara kommer upp i 35, dock flashad mer säkert än vad de flesta kör med. Många bara maxar Ampere till farliga värden

48v och gen2 motor och programvara, kört 2 år med detta utan problem.

extra stöldskydd installerat på min Ninebot G30, känns bra att ingen kan åka iväg på den. Lättare att springa ikapp någon som springer med en kickbike bredvid sig än står på den och susar fram i 45km/h

Full suspension DIY build with Tongsheng TSDZ2

DIY conversion with full suspension and a Tongsheng TSDZ2 motor

A clean full suspension build by A. Gawlowski.

It's a Boardman, with internal cable routing in some places.

Changed his Bafang 48v 750w motor to a Tsdz2 48v 500w.  He says he don't get anywhere near the speed or power but it feels so much better and practical on the trails,  especially the black complicated trails. Weight is only 21kg.  He also made a more practical mod to the XH18 screen.  Chainline is perfect,  get full clearance use of suspension.

Photos from A. Gawlowski.

Green Boardman MTR? Very nice build, full clearance of suspension. Hailong battery on downside of downtube.

Fasten the battery with threaded rivet nuts.

He used this so he could put 4 screws in the underside of downtube.

Speed sensor is riveted, M5?

Nice clean installation!

Speed sensor: Goal was not to use cable ties, looks really neat.

-------------- Another build ----------

It had a std 68mm Bottom Bracket which made to whole conversion fairly easy.

Out on Giant.  

"Still loving these TSDZ motors. I certainly wasn't found lacking against the Bosch powered Cube." - S. Garthwaite

"Made my own battery mount which (so far) has been absolutely solid. It's a tight fit but the battery can be removed easily enough." - S. Garthwaite

Small frame size:

For small bike frames that can't fit standard battery, you have option of getting a custom battery in bag built similar to this (48V 840Wh custom battery)

Hailong battery does not fit downtube on your bike, here the solution!

Install battery on downtube fix! 

So as many of you have noticed it that the Hailong battery type you buy from China does not fit the downtube on our bike. You might get away with putting the battery upside down, but it's not the best scenario.

I have built my own verision to fix this, but this solution below looks even better. So I now order one from Aliexpress.

Search for "electric bike battery install bracket holder" on Aliexpress and you will find it.

Electric bike battery install bracket holder for downtube bottle holder.

I will try to put a picture of my final solution when I get the bracket and have mounted it!
