    My Bafang Ultra Mountain Bike! Frey AM1000

    I've lost one of the nuts on the rear linkage from my AM1000 frame. I sent an email to Frey to ask for a replacement. Wondering if anyone has had similar experience, if anyone knows the thread size/pitch (so I can get a temporary nut until I get a replacement), or if by chance anyone has a...

    My Bafang Ultra Mountain Bike! Frey AM1000

    I swapped everything over to a bare AM1000 frame, but I suspect the end caps are the same regardless.

    My 17.5 battery came off a FLX Blade so might be different from what Frey is providing.

    My Bafang Ultra Mountain Bike! Frey AM1000

    I swapped out the stock display (DP C18.UART) for the 500C and like it much better. I found the C18 display obscenely large and vulnerable and the assist buttons were too sensitive and too close together (or otherwise indistinguishable) so I often increased assist when I meant to decrease and...

    Maybe the 52v case has been redesigned to be taller instead of wider??? But if you look closely in the unboxing video just a few posts ago you can see the extra width of the battery extending outboard of the frame on the left side.

    My Bafang Ultra Mountain Bike! Frey AM1000

    From what I have seen, the shorter cranks (152, 160) are hard to find and not currently available from Miranda. I wanted to see if I could find them again in case I needed a replacement and after a lot of searching the following link is the only source I could find...

    Hopefully you won't need to replace the primary gear, but if you do - here is a great source for that part https://wattwagons.com/collections/accessories/products/bafang-ultra-primary-gear Pushkar at wattwagons is great to work with and I was able to get this part quickly. I'm nervous about...

    My Bafang Ultra Mountain Bike! Frey AM1000

    I've been wanting to follow-up on this post, as I have been waiting to put some miles on the bike to see if problems would develop. In summary - I am completely satisfied and really glad to have converted my FLX Blade hardtail to Frey AM1000 full-suspension frame. The transaction to acquire...

    My Bafang Ultra Mountain Bike! Frey AM1000

    900 miles since I last replaced the clutch. I made several significant changes at that time, including converting from hardtail to full-sus and shorter cranks (152mm). Both of these changes contributed to virtually eliminating crank strikes and I am now convinced that this was the root cause...

    My Bafang Ultra Mountain Bike! Frey AM1000

    Have a look at this bike, it does have the bafang ultra max, rohloff and gates belt! It is possible! Ironically, in the context of the OPs rear hub failure, the Ultra motor has a clutch on the primary gear assembly that couples the pedal-crank to the output that is essentially just a basic...

    My Bafang Ultra Mountain Bike! Frey AM1000

    I removed the gear sensor from my Bafang Mid Drive 48v1000w eMTB. I also removed the rear-brake sensor for the same reason. Standard good shifting practices are warranted just like with a non-e bike. With this configuration I get consistently smooth, silent shifting. Reprogramming the...

    My Bafang Ultra Mountain Bike! Frey AM1000

    Get extra mech hangers for sure. If it were me I would try to upgrade the fork to pike or lyrik if you're going to use it for true mountain biking. A wired-in headlight is a nice option if you will be riding in the dark at all. An extra headset is a convenience too as they are kind of a PITA...

    Bafang M500/M600 thread

    Would cutting out a piece from the midsection and welding back together an option? Any ideas why Bafang would choose a proprietary spline? Maybe they will revise that design if they realize it is a mistake.
