    No. It's Al 6061# aluminum alloy.

    My Bafang Ultra Mountain Bike! Frey AM1000

    The box looks like it went through hell! Mine arrived with scuffed tape at the corners but otherwise intact. I was so anxious I met the FedEx driver at the back of their truck, with a loading cart. Did you have to sign for that? (If you did... well...) Was the shipping paid DDP? If so, the...

    My Bafang Ultra Mountain Bike! Frey AM1000

    Really glad to hear the new frame (eventually) went together OK, & especially that the newer frame appears sturdier made! (I just received our AM1000, today. Frame integrity has been one of my primary concerns & part of the reason I chose Frey was the reinforcements to the rear triangle. I have...

    Frey's AM1000 draws ~1500W peak by default (750W nominal); *I believe that's with an ASI BAC855 motor controller onboard? *Wrong; Not sure what controller the Ultra uses? Doesn't seem to get warm, anyway. With an aftermarket/modded controller, 3000W is fairly common (not many Bafang M620 out...

    Actually, given sparse availability of bike & ebike stuff in general, I'm feeling fine about it: I already knew it might not be programmable, & none of the comparable bikes come with a programmable controller in the first place! Prices are going up not down, batteries are in high demand (& we...

    My Bafang Ultra Mountain Bike! Frey AM1000

    ... Today I received overseas & FedEx tracking info: Oh ship! A cargo vessel carrying the Frey AM1000 we ordered, is scheduled to depart tomorrow; expected to arrive at port in California by the 12th. This ebike was originally scheduled to *ship* by Oct 16th, so I'm feeling pretty good...

    My Bafang Ultra Mountain Bike! Frey AM1000

    Reading your recent posts here, has been a roller-coaster! Very glad (& a bit impressed) that Frey is standing behind your bike, 3 years in. They seem very dedicated to their motto! This week I got an email that the Frey AM1000 we ordered here has been assembled, tested, & sent to packing! I...

    My Bafang Ultra Mountain Bike! Frey AM1000

    Any idea whether "in the near future" means 'bikes we're still putting together now', or whether it means 'we expect to start using those soon, so order one of the remaining old ones ASAP'? Perhaps a better question would be "Do you have any UART programmable G510s in stock & if so how many of...

    My Bafang Ultra Mountain Bike! Frey AM1000

    I know some people ordering Bafang Ultra motors by other methods have reported receiving BBS Ultra motors that use entirely CANbus controllers... However I haven't seen one first-hand yet, nor have I seen any Frey owners reporting that theirs has a non-UART controller: So far, it seems like...

    My Bafang Ultra Mountain Bike! Frey AM1000

    Nice! In reading & watching ebike comparison review after review I'm amazed\appalled how many mention varying levels of pedal assist response on bikes with identical motors, yet fail to mention controller programming or that some are programmable. Looking at the "Smooth" tuning mentioned here...

    My Bafang Ultra Mountain Bike! Frey AM1000

    :lol: After much reading online (including the woes & joys in this very thread), every competing ebike I found (meaning competitive in componentry and price), was not available this April. (Of which only one was really in the same price range as equipped anyway.) Edit: It should be noted that...
