It becomes too heavy, tho.

Dji and the MGM motors are bombshells surely, that 800 battery and its high density is truly remarkable. However. ZF. ZF is a Pandora that every motor manufacturer may wish was never let of the box. That oil bathed clutched motor, I have a feeling that's only merely a sample of what they're really working on. If you knew, first hand, what ZF is capable of in the automotive industry. Then you know what's coming.

I have a pretty decent ebike and hope to be able to afford another before my age catches up to me. Keep on keeping on!

Very cool engine! Better than Bosch. Love dji products!! go by bike!

ZF need to start working on a motor-gearbox combo like Pinion's. Their transmissions are legendary in the auto industry, so they surely have the know-how for such a project. The only other such system that I can think of is Valeo's Effigear, and that only has 6 speeds.

I’m seriously considering an EMTB because where I live there’s is so much climbing involved at steep grades to get to enjoy the downhill. Hope this tech keeps evolving. Allows you to travel more distance in the same time

ZF is known for making good transmissions so hopefully all the gears and internals are top notch.

Same power as my Rocky, but 10 lbs lighter. If this thing comes to market it will be a game changer.

All the old tech is gonna be on sale. Love that! I'll grab a Levo SL at 50% off and be on my way to the trail.

Big job on for Steve and the team. Great content thanks

The DJI looks impressive but it still looks large and screams eMTB. I want more stealth so actually the smaller MGM and ZF motors are more interesting. I was thinking of getting a Fazua Ride 60 bike but now thinking I may do better to wait another season or two on my Rise before getting a newer eMTB.

supertechnical stuff! not in the mountains but in frankfurt... thank you

This motor with gearbox/pinion setup is what will eventually we should see in future

You need to introduce DJI to Pinion and we have the future of E Bikes on their way. If they can do what they have to the drone industry in terms of size and power of drone motors and batteries then we have a free thinking company out of left field who can truly be a game changer. Just like Pinion. Not the the same old bike transmission companies playing around with cassettes and materials trying to save weight and producing weak and expensive parts not fit for purpose. Bring it on.

Super nice to see more competition, would have like to seen them launch a gear box motor.

the king has entered the room

need to try the zf. looks like the perfect motor right now!

They picked the right frame to copy! Orbea Ris-esque

that update for pinion is huge...

The DJI bike looks excellent. I wonder whether DJI will incorporate some basic 'follow me' drone controls into the bike software. The flimsy 12 speed drivetrain should be pretty snappy with 120 Nm plus rider input going through it. Expect to spend a lot of money on chains and cassettes - or move to 9 speed.

If the DJI bike launches mini drones, take my money.

Great to see more motor players in the market to challenge the component monopolies! We just need someone to propose a universal mount & universal charging standard (aka USB C on steroids) to give consumers more options for the same frame and one charger to rule them all!

Hi guys, this is the most technical Steve has ever been motor wise for sure. The DJI Amflow is driving a derailleur having its 100th anniversary so you still have to put up with a tail end chain breaker and clagg hunter. It is surely time to change to a Shimmy 11 speed or similar, don't go for a belt option on a EMTB it collects mud faster than a hippo!

Gosh... I bought a Fuel ExE yesterday after agonising over Fuel ExE or Levo. I have to start saving g again after seeing this DJi motor and bike. This is the one bike we all want. Gosh

One word…..”Wow!”

nice shoes tho😄

The Amflow bike looks great, doesn't look like an EMTB. The DJI motor etc seems like it'll be a good setup.

I just bought a Spectral ON CF 8 I thought I loved it... am I always going to be behind the 8 ball with the rapid Tech advances. This is just like getting a computer in the 90's, only to have it outdated in 2 months..... do we think this will ever level off?

Given the questions about servicing and reliability which often pop up around ebike motors and components (particularly in climates like the UK), it will be the companies who offer support who will succeed in the long run - so regardless of features, how can the new entrants to the market (like DJI) provide the after-market support required to built a consumer base with the bike industry already under so much strain?

Great video, thanks. Does anyone make a motor that has true zero drag once 15.5mph is exceeded? My EP8-equipped MTB is awful, my Ride60 gravel bike is close to zero? I think this would be the biggest advance in e-bike motor usability

So, did all the engineers at Shimano die?what happend! Smaller units definitely seem to be the direction. I love it. Great video guys!

Do they cost considerably more than my car? Probably. Do a video on how ludicrous over-priced emtbs are - go on, go on, go on!

Hope we can get it in poor USA

Any motor that comes out from now on without integrated gearbox that gets rid of the deraileure like Pinion is DOA😂

Hold on ! apparently the 120Nm/ 1000watts is only available IN the top assist level for thirty seconds . Compare that with the Sachs/BMZ motor where it's 112 Nm is available in tour as well as the highest assist indefinitely without over heating .

DJI just mic dropped the whole bike industry!! They'll all be scrambling now to keep up!

Land managers have been slow to approve class 1 bikes on trails is holding e-bikes in the USA but keeps improving every year.

Current Bosch and Shimano motor are plenty powerful with the battery capacity that we currently have. Any more than this will deplete the battery too quickly… Sure it’s nice to have a 30sec boost mode , but i would rather not have a derailler /chain and the maintenance that comes with it

2024 has been the most exciting ebike innovation year. More integrity, data, motor power and efficiency, etc. On the other hand, suddenly having tens of options in motor brands alone feels paralyzing.

What about the IP rating? When are we going to get motors that can keep the water out?
