Sorry, the link above is for the rear motor dimensions...

Here's a GM link with the front dropout dimension:

Geez...the link above is for a rear motor as well...

GM evidently doesn't have much documentation on the MP front motor. However, GM says that the MP motor width is 60 mm which, with the proper sized spacer(s), means that it should fit a number of front forks. But then again, there's the problem of getting the wheel "dished" correctly (while still allowing the use of a disc brake, if applicable).

100mm, which is the standard front dropout width in the industry. The problem is in the offset and as the other poster said getting your rim centered. This can be accomplished via using 2mm shorter spokes on the disc mount side.
