Its 15cm long and I mount it in front of the back tyre I measured it and it seems like it will fit there but do you think the bike will handle the power?
 
The motor usually needs to be offset to one side to get the gear lined up with the back wheel, so it will poke out a lot to one side.
 
It still needs to line up with the chain, leaving one side sticking out pretty far into the pedals, unless you use a longer than normal bottom bracket spindle.
 
Yes that's what I have ordered just need to wait for the motor to arrive I will post results and pics I did have a mid drive before but wanted to make my own and a better version that last for a long time my mid drive lasted 1 year then 1 after the other the parts started to fail
