    Ti On One Hardtail BBS HD Build - Complete

    the motor has shifted pinching the line.... :( replaced line - all better - but ran it over top of the bottom bracket to be safe ... still a little noise from the BB area while riding , but its way better than the last bike. 40k so far on it , just getting broken in.

    BBS HD - Bottom Bracket Shim (73mm BB)

    I would prefer not to compromise the frame , my goal by using a combo of a spacer and creating a recess in the back of the gear casing would be to minimize the impact to the Q value. Lekkie Buzz bars are on their way so that will help a bit too.

    BBS HD - Bottom Bracket Shim (73mm BB)

    Here where the back of the gear housing would hit the chainstay if not spaced out ... if i wanted to use a smaller spacer and grind a small amount of the housing off where it lines up with the chainstay.

    No Bafang used by mainstream bike manufactures.

    I was in my local canadian tire yesterday and saw a Raleigh eBike with some type of Integrated Bafang motor (Had a Bafang Bottom Bracket looked like an ultra , obviously wasn't) i was pleasantly surprised to see it. this well known bike company was bought by canadian tire a while back i...

    BBS HD - Bottom Bracket Shim (73mm BB)

    another question... the casing by the chainstay is pretty thick , thoughts on some mild resurfacing of the backside of it to reduce the amount of spacer needed ? (#weightsavings lol) semi serious question , but i'm by no means married to this idea.

    BBS HD - Bottom Bracket Shim (73mm BB)

    Is this the one you used... 33.5mm - it's pretty long unfortunately - doesn't look like they make a smaller one... so did you cut yours ? https://www.mcmaster.com/press-fit-bushings/id~33-5-mm/

    BBS HD - Bottom Bracket Shim (73mm BB)

    Awesome ! thanks for the additional context .... i don't expect to be doing any crazy amount of single track - but i do enjoy the occasional bunny hop and curb/limb jump - so it sound like the extra support will 100% keep the weight of the motor in check and avoid backing our or loosening of...

    BBS HD - Bottom Bracket Shim (73mm BB)

    further measuring done today.... 1) This frame has a 72.48mm Wide Bottom Bracket. 2) This frame does not have a notch at the front of the chainstay. I may have to space the motor out from the BB to clear the chainstay, thus reducing the threads i will have to double lockring with. Adding in...
