    Just got it working today as motor was an unknown I took a chance on it as Hafords said basically sold as seen. The PAS they sent is crap and does not fit , I asked for a different one . And I just realised the Carrera has oil brakes so I had to order sensors. The battery needs some thought...

    No the rubber thing does not come off easily but if need s be I could cut it away to expose BB The out side diameter of the BB is 22mm. Is this a further problem ?

    does this help ? As it would help it sell I think if it had one kit that was designed to work as one like the Suntours. V The rear wheel and motor are designed to fit on this bike and if wiring into Suntours is done to a professional standard then happy days.
