Looking around at used bikes, and even some new bikes, I am seeing more and more bikes, with a rear 142mm through axle.
There is no slot on those frames in which to just slide in a Hub Motor .
I have had to pass up some good bikes at a good price because I just have not figured out how to put the standard rear hub motor onto the bike.
I have a Mac rear hub motor I would like to use, or the little Q100 C CST ,
BTW , these bikes I speak of , also have the BB30 or Press Fit Bearings BB86 , Etc, so the Befang BBS02 will not work, Besides it is Heavy at 8+ pounds.
So until someone makes a 4-6 lb mid drive , that will work with modern bottom brackets, I will have to use a rear hub motor .
Any pictures of a rear hub motor on a nice bike with the 142mm through axle ?
