Hi there,
I have been googling for many days how to electrify this bike, but I am still lost. I am looking for medium assist, not crazy "TURBO" modes like Bosch has, 10s battery, light weight solution. BBSHD would be a candidate if it was lighter or didn't have square tapered axle.
TSDZ2 (https://endless-sphere.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=79788) had almost all checks:
-light
-torque sensor
-mid drive
-cheap
However frame has 83mm bottom bracket, while TSDZ2 supports 73mm max, no cigar.
So next best solution would be a rear geared hub motor with proper freewheel and disc mount, but I can't find any for 157x12mm thru axle. Maybe even 135/142/150x12mm could work with some kind of adapter? Preferably 32 holes, preferably something that can handle enduro/freeride usage? Am I asking for a unicorn?
Thanks for any input!
