I just got a great deal on a Townie bike ($150 delivered to my door from someone moving to Phoenix). My plan is to put an electric hub motor kit on it. There's also a Sun trike here that's transitioning into an eTrike, so there's stuff for me to do during this lockdown.
I'd prefer to use the electrics off my current eBike on the Townie, but the eBike has wide dropouts on the rear measuring roughly 7" across. The Townie is much narrower, maybe 5 1/2". Is that too much of a stretch for a steel frame?
