ENGWE EP-2 500w e-bike / How To Alter The Maximum Speed.

Поділитися
Вставка
  • Опубліковано 10 жов 2020
  • I've been asked if it's possible to adjust the speed of the Engwe EP-2 500w, as different countries have different laws regarding the maximum speed allowed for e-bikes. This is only for the bikes with the M5 display. the YL80C display requires a different procedure.
    This comes from the factory, at least mine did, already set at the maximum speed, around 23mph/37kmh. Dependant on rider weight and conditions.
    In the settings of the M5 display, obtained by pressing both the up and down keys, then scrolling with the 'M' button until 08P is reached, the number should be set at 63, max speed, done by using the arrow buttons.
    Any alteration to this figure requires the display to be turned off and back on again to register the input, otherwise it will revert back to the previous setting.
    I found that setting it to 30 will give a max speed of around 15mph/25kmh, which is the legal speed for most European countries.
    I also found that after turning off the battery, the inputted values remained.
    There's also an alteration in the 05P setting, if you change it from 001 to 002 it will give you 9 pas levels and a bit more speed. Not sure what the effect on the motor this has though, and I find 9 assists too many really.

    I love the 9 pas setting so when I'm going slow I can cruse at walking speed to keep with mates who aren't riding as for 9 level pretty nippy but I only use that speed here and there to extend motor life. I guess I can add a 750 watt bafang hub wheel in a few years or get engwe to send me one wheel part and it should go on my 500 watt as battery requirements are the same so why not. This is a few years time though lol 😂

      Always the way. I have the Fiido M1 PRO. It's only a 500w 48v fat tyre ebike. But some people claim to be getting 28mph on the flat with it my top speed is 41kph or about 25mph. On a flat road pure throttle no pedalling. I weigh 88KG about 194lbs. So this is a factor too. My friend only weighs 150lbs and he gets 45kph on it over the same stretch of road.
      So you cannot overlook these things. The Engwe EP2 pros are fine bikes. Especially the GREY model. modded out with BMX handle bars it's the coolest looking fat tyre ebike I've ever seen. But they are 10 to 15lbs heavier than the M1 pro right out of the box.
      Weight makes a difference. And then if you are heavy yourself. That's going to take the speed down by 2 or 3 mph. It makes sense. The more work the motor has to do. The slower its going to be. And the range will shorten too.

  • @craigstevenson6565
    @craigstevenson6565 3 роки тому +1

    I done this and I feel that it doesn't make it faster at all, what your doing is altering the way the display reads the motor speed, telling you its going faster but it not. Pedal assist 9 sucks everything out your battery so even if you could go faster ( and i doubt it does) it's not even a mile before the power drops and then you sitting at 19/20mph anyway and you've lost a good 2 miles or more range. The settings it comes is perfect and this is a great bike!

    • @MidlandBulletRiders
      @MidlandBulletRiders  3 роки тому +2

      I tend to agree with you. I don't like the 9 assists myself anyway, 5 is a much more usable amount.

      I've not tested it to it's limit. It's not ideal to push an electric motor to the point of stopping, that's how things burn out. Also I add a bit of pedal power to help up hills and it gets up quite easily.

    Hi dear. Did you change your tires too? From the video they seem to me that they make less noise than the originals that I have. Do you know what I can do for the front shocks to improve them? Just put some fat in it? Or have you changed them and they work better? Now I give a piece of advice to you.The battery at every drop makes a lot of noise because it beats on the frame. Make a little thick near the lower part of the battery that beats on the frame (you can also do it with a little paper). It will make a lot less noise and driving will give you a safer feeling.

    • @MidlandBulletRiders
      @MidlandBulletRiders  3 роки тому +1

      They are the standard tyres that it came with. The forks do not use oil only springs, you can make them harder or softer by adjusting the preload. Yes I know I get a slight rattle from the battery. I did add some tape to the edges but had to remove it because it was too tight to fit in the frame. It's on my to-do list.

    Suggest swapping out the brake cables, the factory set aren't good, I think they might even be gear cables. Mine rear cable snapped going down a hill, I suspect the bike is too heavy for the stock brakes at those speeds (you were smart to change yours). I've done about 500 miles and the pads already need swapping out. Please get a chest harness for the camera when doing speed tests. You need both hands on the brakes.

    @andrewpitts6498 3 роки тому +3

    Interesting stuff. I wonder what 63 (or whatever number one sets) actually means? 63 what?
    The changing of the PAS divisions is handy to know, although I suspect 5 is optimum. One assumes 9 just divides the increases into finer increments?? I have noticed on bumpy tracks that the jump from 3 to 4 is very noticeable. Less of a problem on flat tarmac as one tends to want to dial in max cruising speed.
    Interesting stuff though mate👍.

    • @MidlandBulletRiders
      @MidlandBulletRiders  3 роки тому +2

      No idea where they pluck those numbers from. I could understand it if it equalled kilometres.

    • @andrewpitts6498
      @andrewpitts6498 3 роки тому +1

      I've looked at whether it might be wheel rpm but that's way too slow. Using radians doesn't work either. I think maybe you are dialing in Nm?? Which dictate a certain motor rpm to give the required power to achieve the speed attainable on said amount of power. It would explain discrepancies due to incline or drag.

    • @andrewpitts6498
      @andrewpitts6498 3 роки тому +2

      I've tried calculating the power assuming 63 means Nm, based on the rolling circumference of the tyre and the speed you have obtained, but the sums didn't add up. However I'm still inclined to think that parameter 8 is actually the motor max torque in Nm. I've read that these geared hub motors give peak torque at a speed lower than peak power rpm. If so we can think of the parameter 8 as a kind of "mapping". Lowering the value in the parameter then would be lowering the peak torque and I assume peak power. If I'm on the right lines then it begs the question as to how the various pedal assist level settings react to changing parameter 8. In other words does pedal assist 4 (for example) feel weaker when parameter 8 is set to 40 than it feels when parameter 8 is set to 63?

    went up a steep hill yesterday with a total of 194 lbs, my weight plus shopping tools ect, got up to 14.5 mph on pas 3 with peddle at the top .so will try different gears without power, had trouble getting power assist to work with the gears and motor. but all works now, no need for such a complicated computer.
