don`t see any picture attached?
anyway - i didn`t used any washers, except the one to fit BBSHD diameter on pressfit diameter (don`t remember exact numbers, standard bottom bracket is not similar with press fit diameter).
my giant was using 27.5+ front (2.8) and 2.4 back tyre.
Yes, I did with no issues but you have bare in mind that you won`t be able to go thru some roots or elevations. I knocked engine once or twice, then I get to remember that and it didn`t happend again. Most of the time I was riding casualy thru my city and in that case it doesn`t matter at all.
Trek ex fuel 8 - not the best frame angle for BBSHD. If you want to see the best frame for BBSHD and understand my point please google: dartmoor blackbird frame.
If you want to go wih BBSHD (which is a great motor!) look out for a frame with as low as possible angle between downtube and sadle tube (sorry, I don`t know if I wrote it correctly). I mean that angle which that giant have is wide open so the motor would be hanging too low...
Hi
ad1. 100mm (and that is the correct one size for BBSHD)
ad2. Without grinding motor would not fit bottom bracket at all. Altrough, you need to purchase pf adapter
ad3. only bottom part
ad4. yes
Good luck in building that one. It was my first BBSHD ebike, now I`m few furtherer but I still...
Great work man! Never seen anything like that... Anyway, could you please write about that Cube frame - it wad designed for Bosch engine - which generation?
Aaaaaa, OK - you`re right, Ive forgot about these. I though you`re asking about spacers to move back engine off the centre.... Yep, these spacers you showed are nescessary and I have used them.
Also you need to grind / remove that part:
Here you can see my bottom bracket spacers already fitted:
Hi there, here is my first build. For my second build I`ll surely pick frame which allows to position engine more horizontal. Anyway it rides very well, accelerattion is awesome!
