Hi everyone,
I recently installed a Bafang 750w mid-drive, with the full EM3EV package, on a 2016 Specialized Sirrus. I've had the kit installed for 2 weeks and really enjoy it. Huge improvement all around over my old EMotion Neo Xtrem in terms of performance. Still learning a lot about DIY.
Recently I started noticing that the "clutch" (not sure if that's the right term) is not engaging/disengaging as immediately. That is my uneducated assessment. Another way to to describe the problem is to say that if I turn the chainring backwards first, and then forwards there is about a inch of travel on the chainring before the pedals start to spin. I took a video to show what I'm talking about:

The issue was not present when I first installed the system, and seems to be progressing a little every day.
I checked the pedals/cranks, which are tight. I'm thinking it's possible I have a chainring issue, but it doesn't seem to be behaving like (non ebike) loose chainrings I see in videos online.
Wondering if anyone has seen this before from a Bafang mid-drive.
As always, thanks to the community in advance.
