BBSHD on Priority Continuum Onyx Gates Belt

[Bear210]

Belt drives are remarkable when mounted with proper alignment and coupled with a Bafang BBSHD mid drive to Nuvinci 380 IGH. Of course like most builds, it comes with challenges.

Could you give a build list, specifically the chainwheel / adapter you used? I have a TSDZ2 on mine, cracked the stock plastic chainweel 2nd time out, had to get the aluminium one with a 130BCD adapter.

Unless I misunderstood the text for each of the images in his post, he made his own, by combining the inner part of a lekkie ring with the tooth part of a gates belt sprocket.

Ah for some reason the other images didn't load, I see them now.

Any chance you can post the OD on the lekkie ring and the ID on the gates chainring? Thanks.

Really nice work :thumb:

I'm looking to do this same conversion but with the 750w bafang mid drive. I see you made your own chain ring. That's really nice but looks challenging.

Would I be able to use the spider chain ring adapter instead?

Did the bbshd motor fit perfectly ? I can't find the bottom bracket specs anywhere for this bike.

Please excuse my ignorance I'm new to converting a bicycle to an ebike but really want to make a belt drive bicycle into a mid drive ebike.

I don't believe the 750W will work due to beltline issues and available chainrings/beltrings. The bottom bracket will fit just fine.

how did you combine them together, weld? I can't tell you put the gates bracket on the lekkie chainring for the additional offset. but how?
