How to build your EBike with M500/M600 motor

Maintenance and repair

You can use software called OpenBafangTool to configurate your motor (and other components) or to get diagnostic information (data from inner sensors, error codes)

Improve your Bafang M500/M600 EBike

Build your own EasyDIY OpenSource display that is a fully replacement of the original display, but let you configure the motor max speed and wheel perimeter. It also shows you advanced data like battery current, voltage and motor power. And for the ones that use a cycling GPS computer Garmin Edge, this display also implements the ANT+ LEV EBike wireless and sends to the Edge the battery SOC and assist level, as also let you change the Edge page by clicking on the remote button:
