About this conversion

A great example of a modern MTB getting the electric treatment. Required a few extras to convert it but has definitely given the customer an awesome ride.

Extra parts and modifications used for this conversion

Motor Fitment

Due to the press-fit BB90 (41x90mm BB) it required a Lekkie BB86/92Adapter to fit the 68mm motor. We have file down the ISCG mounts but other than that motor fitment was pretty smooth. Required 4mm of spacers between the mounting plate and motor which we did with some M6 washers.

Battery

DP6 battery mounted to bottle cage mounts on downtube.

Drivetrain

Lekkie Bling Ring 01/02 40T package was fitted to correct the chain-line and Lekkie Buzz Bars Left Offset 160mm V2.1 to fix the q-factor. Great chain-line and can use the full cassette.
