Bafang Motor question

Does anyone know if the nylon planetary gear & clutch is the same for Bafang Mid Motors as the Bafang Hub Motor.
I have a 750 watt rear hub motor and might need to replace the nylon gears but everything I find mentions only Bafang Mid motor.

Maybe something like this?

If it’s 750W, assuming it’s the Fat Hub?

Have you checked with the vendor from whom you bought the 750W Rear Fat kit? Good possibility they can get the part to you pretty quick even if it is not listed for sale in their store.

I can get the part. I found this on Aliexpress and this answered my question. Rear hub motors do not have the same planetary gear systems as mid motors.
I have a RM G060.500.D motor

There are at least two different sizes. Do the measuring. I thought I could replace the bearings in the wheels, but they were totally stuck on the posts.

I have a Bafang front-wheel geared motor and the gears are very noisy under full load does this mean the nylon gears need replacing
