Hello.
I am building a new fat bike for my dad. I got the 100 mm BBSHD and when I tried to install it I got this:

Do I need the 120 mm version, right? Where can I get spacers for the left side?



Thanks.

Thanks.G
if you are lucky 120MM with spacers may work. Spacers are available from most bike parts supplier. Try googling "BBSHD AND THE BIKE BRAND AND MODEL." There may be build threads out there.

bottom bracket spacers
 
I don't think you're gonna be able to move the gear case far enough to the left to accommodate even the 120mm version. You'll need a shorter stack of bad ideas in one place.

Thank you guys. I didn't find a similar build but I will keep looking. Luckily I can use this motor in other build but I am afraid of buy a 120 mm version and can't use it.


I will post when I find a solution.
 
Look at ElectricBike.com. The individual has reported on several conversions with a BBSHD (mostly using bikes direct bikes, but probably you can procure just a frame there or at their subsidiary, bike island).
 
I think you're going to need a frame that starts the widening of the chainstays farther back than the one you have, to be able to do this type of build.
 
Brand and model name?

Hello guys.

Sorry for the late reply. I was wondering what to do with the bike. I decided to sell it, and then told to my dad (it was a surprise por him, now he is riding a original Sondors modified that I bought broken).

He liked the bike and he ask me for finish it. With a rear wheel motor or whatever


The bike is the 2016 Mondraker Panzer: https://bike.motocard.com/montana/mondraker-panzer_26_black_blue.aspx
Not very much information about builds with it. Found a video on Youtube but the guy didn't answer me.

I think the best choice would be a rear motor, right?


Regards.
 
I almost have finished this project.

The 120 mm version and spacers did the trick. I will post some pics.


Thanks

Please post pictures of the chainline too, if you can. It's one thing to install a part, another thing for it to fit the system you install it on.

Hi! :D

I bought a Gustavo 42T plate with offset from Aliexpress and it is alignment to the third gear of ten, no perfect but not so bad (this bike is for my dad and now he only has one gear. I hope we will use them). I bought a 40T Precialps with more offset. I will pics with I have it :)


Best regards.

I and many others have rearranged cassettes before to help alleviate this, worth a shot if you haven't thought about it already.

True. I was only ever able to use 6 out of 8 or 7 out of 9 sprockets with my BBS02. So I moved the gears I wanted into those positions, and stuck the extras behind them and locked them out with the rear derailleur limit screws.

Thank you. I will check it too. Im out of home for a couple of weeks. First install the new plate (I hope don't have problems with the size) and then check the cassette.
