April 20, 2023 - (Suzhou, China) The last few months have been a bit quiet for new product presentations from Bafang. All the more “powerful” is the presentation of the new H720 rear hub motor by the Chinese drive manufacturer based in Suzhou to draw the attention of product managers to this new drive system for the upcoming e-bike concepts.
This motor system, which is focused on the North American market, shines above all with its integrated automatic dual-speed shifting and can be used for both classic spoke wheel (H720) and fully integrated wheel concepts (H720W). At the same time, this powerful hub motor remains the same appearance and dimension as their all fat bike rear motor product line.
The technical performance data of this rear hub motor gives every e-fatbike or other stylish bike concept the right drive solution. The H720 offers various wattage levels: 250W, 500W, 750W and 1,000W.
The respective watt class of the motor delivers correspondingly different torques: 55Nm at a motor weight of 4.8kg, 65Nm at 5.1kg, 80Nm and a powerful 95Nm at a total weight of 5.4kg. With a rated voltage of 48/52 volts, the system can support up to 28MPH, making it ideally suited for the North American market.
Integrated 2-speed gearbox
This innovative motor system was designed to support future-oriented bike concepts in their purist appearance, so that in future add-on parts such as rear derailleur, cable pulls and gear levers will be a thing of the past. This is reflected in a significantly lower maintenance effort. The integrated rear derailleur (dual-speed shifting) of the H720 has been put to the test and the shift points have been ideally matched (shifts automatically from 1:1 to 1:1.36, more efficient cadence). The system also has the advantage that these predefined shifting intervals can be customized to the respective bike concept.
H720 Offers Two System Solutions
With the H720, Bafang can meet the demands of the market and offers two system solutions: A. for the classic spoked wheel and B. for a fully integrated wheel concept.
Component Availability – Short Delivery Times and UL Certificates
Both systems are already in series production and, together with the other components in the system solution, can be delivered within 60 days. The complete system is getting UL2849 & 2271 certificates. The H720 drive system is ready to test and awaits you at our Bafang booth S1 at the upcoming Sea Otter Classic event.
