All I'm seeing around is people happily unboxing their purchase. Where are they now? Are they still happy after 10k? I don't understand why people buy Bafang or any other more expensive motors. I believe there is a reason and I don't know it.
Why is Mxus so cheap.

MXUS tends to sell totally average quality motors that don't excel in efficiency or weight.. they don't make anything awe inspiring but they do offer good value for the dollar.
I think that's why they get no love. Their stuff is only slightly better than mediocre.

I think volume is a big component reflected in the low price. The 9C direct drive motors seem to be their bread and butter, and since the design hasn't changed, they can just stamp them out for sale under their name, for sale rebranded by others, and OEM business. Their average efficiency is good enough for most applications. When you spend more, you're buying small but sometimes significant advancements in design and efficiency, which informed buyers tend to appreciate and are willing to spend the money on.
I'm not sure their geared motors are a big bargain compared to Bafang, but more affordable than something like a Mac

What? It's 1/3 of price. Or is it?
Sorry, I have no idea what "it" is.

Actually, thanks to your hint I found this:
What do you think?
What do you think?
I'm not familiar enough with the Bafang motors to identify them by sight, and the listing doesn't seem to provide enough clues, since it looks like they are selling a few model. The customer pic with the scan code comes up as the G70, but I don't think that the 250W front hub that came up using your link is a G70.

Depends on how you qualify average?
The MXUS rep tells me the XF40 1000w hub has aluminum threads for the freewheel.
Is that average or below average? I would say below average considering the aluminum thread vs. steel thread issue has been known for at least 14 years now. Even the Suringmax 1500w hub found on the thread below has steel threads for freewheel:
Suringmax motor
Who has used this motor? Suringmax SR35HD1500w Is this an analog of Quanshun or Crystalite? Not much data. RPM and number of turns of winding. https://suringmax.com/index.php?m=home&c=View&a=index&aid=105

I've taken many of them apart over the years, seen many dynos ( all product seem to be blah, efficiency wise, compared to their competition ), never impressed with winding flatness or amount of copper.. or other less critical aspects of build quality.
Just not my thing, i want exceptional power to weight ratio and high efficiency.. what MXUS has been selling for decades doesn't tick those boxes.

Can anyone tell me if Bafang has a standard wheel size equivalent of the G062, similar to the 1000w geared MXUS? Thanks to this thread maybe I will avoid MXUS. A lot cheaper than GMAC or Leafbike, can anyone recommend a similar motor from Bafang or elsewhere closer to the MXUS price point in a standard wheel size?Sorry, I have no idea what "it" is.

I’m going to pretend that when you say wheel size that you mean dropout dimensions.
Maybe consider one of these:
GOHO.750 / 1000.DC. - 750W at 48V, 1000W at 52V
RM G0900.750.DC - 750W at 48V
My guess is that the second motor can also run 1000W at 52V.

Thank you! This looks like the one to get. If there was a geared version for normal dropout spacing that would be better but this looks good. Do you know a good place I can get one laced into a wheel? Can’t see one from a look on ali. I imagine you can hot Rod them to get more speed and power (as in run more amps than nominal rating)

The first of these, the H550 appears to be for a fat tire bike
The second one, the H640, it’s not clear if it is a geared hub? Can anyone clarify? The info online doesn’t say anywhere! Basically a 2kw capable geared hub would tick the boxes for me - maybe I should also check out MAC
The first is not the H550.

Bafang doesn't make direct drive motors, only geared (hubs or mid drives).

Oh, that would be perfect then, but it doesn’t appear Bafang makes them any more. I can’t find it in their catalogue and it’s sold out on the site unfortunately, and I can’t find it for sale available anywhere else. I guess the second motor would be a bit less powerful/ capable of handling higher power. The options seem to be Between the MXUS XF19 and the Bafang H640, but can’t find the Bafang laced into a wheel. The MXUS looks pretty good apart from the reports on this thread that MXUS quality isn’t great
You're dealing with China in any time they make $80,000 motors hand wound they're going to be some mishaps.
Standard mountain bike dropout is 135mm . A lot of times you can use a five-speed Free Will and it fits you can use a 7 speed free will you would need 142mm in the rear. They now have cassette compatible motors not knowing the different widths to accommodate the wider 8 9 and 10 speed cassettes.
What is your donor bike that you're going to put this motor into how fast do you want to go and how many hills do you have ? What voltage ? What controller ? What and where you're going to put the battery ?
