Bafang/ Volition M400 "BOOST" mid drive motor
It’s not the ordinary Bafang M400 (250W) you may see on other bikes. Volition’s boosted up the power by 100% ! Now the motor pumps up more than 110N.m of torque and nearly 1000watts of power! We have also added the throttle in the system; a world exclusive for M400. The motor is now capable hitting up to 45kmh with some pedalling effort.
The mid-drive motor measures sensors at pedals at a frequency of up to 80k Hz via a torque sensor and two speed sensors. The result is that “the harder you push , the more power you get from the motor”. In spite of the power, the motor operates in virtual silence.
Australian made ?
Volition e.bikes are designed, engineered & hand built in Australia with imported parts. Some of the parts or features are exclusive.
Premium 48V Long Range Battery
Our Batteries (measured in Wh) are greater than most e.bikes out there. It is important to know when comparing e.bikes that the cost of the battery often accounts for 40% of an e.bike’s price. Wh for Wh, our e.bikes easily offer the most amount of value.
Another thing sets us apart is that we design our own battery. Most batteries use similar cells inside. The difference is in assembling, materials & safety standards. Our team made strict assembly & quality protocols so each battery is made to our highest safety and performance standard.
Why You'll Love this E.bike
- a super quiet yet powerful riding experience;
- a road legal motor that will flatten the hills
- affordable “luxury”; want an un-compromised ebike that does not break the bank
- 48V power system that is integrated and super easy to remove and carry
- a very light e.bike at around 22-24kg for the trail riding

- How long can a 560Wh battery last ?
With your own effort in pedalling, a fully charged 560Wh should give you up to 50-60km. We do have battery upgrade options. Contact us please.
- How many years will the battery last ?
E.Bike batteries should last up to 5 years before dropping to the 50% of the original capacity or even lower. The “best” period is the first 2 – 3 years.
- Why Cassette?
The cassette 8 speed system is more affordable & more available and have a wide range of gears. Internal gears do make more sense on e bikes.
- Can I just use the throttle and not pedal at all ?
Yes. You can with the un-restricted version only. The throttle works like a mini e-moped ; but it’s not recommended to use the throttle only to take off nor for an extensive long periods of time.
- What are some of the improvements over the previous model ?
Support (new) semi-integrated battery system. Improved suspensions & lights systems …
- What if I have a problem with your e.bike?
Most parts are just regular bike parts. You could get help from any bike store. If you are experiencing any electrical issue, we can remotely diagnose the issue and send the replacement. We could also arrange a courier pick up and have it serviced in Sydney.
- How can I put the bike together from the box.
We have a short video. We will have also supplied basic tools in the box for you. You could also seek help from a local shop.
There are mainly two ebike motor systems on the market
[Mid Drive]
- Produces a lot of torque utilising the bike’s gear system; better for the hill climbing and efficient riding. All premium e.bikes use mid drive systems
- Light weight, centred and a part of the frame; thus, no negative effect on the suspension performance
- Riders need some hours on the bike to learn and understand how it works
- Puts the stress on the bike chain; however, internal gear systems in general can solve this issue.
[Hub Motor Drive]
- Affordable & popular on entry level e.bikes
- Impose no stress on the drive system by not using them
- Not great torque; poor leverage
- Unsprung mass which means it negatively affects the suspension performance
- Tyre / tube change is a hassle
- Subjectively boring …
