Here we go ! Took a bit of persuasion and also with the right tool. I was being a tool using the bloody big allen key to turn the bracket removal lol. Had to buy this ratchet today. And it worked after a few tries with the hammer. Not bad.

So, I am properly stuck now. How do I take this bottom bracket off, the non drive side I took off by rotating clockwise but I have tried every way getting the drive side off. Does anyone know if I have to turn counter clockwise or clockwise. It's a carrera subway 2 hybrid if that helps. I've...

So I got that bit off. took a bit of effort ah!

Hi guys, The motor and battery delivered today. Just started on the installation. But I'm stuck at the wrench trying to get my crank off. I feel so silly but it's my first time. I'm searching on how to get it off but no luck.

Yes, same one I got. Not cheap but it's worth it.

haha yes I do, tell you what, it's totally worth it tho. I went with the TSDZ8 motor and dp battery from Woosh. Should arrive on Wednesday. Andy from Woosh is a gem, took his time and also sent me video links. Thank you for recommending.

Hi Az, thanks I got that seatpost changed, can't believe I never heard of a suspension seatpost before. I'm out here bouncing along with this seatpost now hahahahahaha So Andy gave me a few tips and explained the motors better so I'd be getting delivery later this week. I'd keep you all...

New chain really not just some oil hahaha

Do you reckon I buy a battery from Woosh? they got a 15Ah battery + motor on there for £705. So I just get a full set from em rather. What do you think?

Same for half the price isn't always better. I My thinking was why go thru the process of buying a used bike and having to buy multiple parts that will surely need replacing. Also, I hardly ever buy anything used, not even a hammer lol. Just my opinion.

Hi Woosh you up next!! I filled the contact form on the site. Please what do you suggest motor wise, I'm leaning with AZ on the TSD. I was thinking bafang but seems TSD has more votes.

I'd take you up on it and build it myself. This is all the motivation I need. haha thanks a lot. What are my illegal options. I don't mind either. Just want to guage what's worth it and what's not.

Got ya. Thanks a lot guys. I'm open to recommendations on parts and where to buy too.

Yes and from the reviews I definitely want a mid drive. Do you think the mid drive will work on the subway? obviously you guys are experts at this.

Thanks guys, so much to learn. I don't think there's anything wrong with Halfords bikes either. Is there something I'm missing?

Thanks guys, so much to learn. This I am going to do. I thought about it and for my first conversion it makes more sense.

It's not particularly hilly. On the bike trails it does get hilly but I don't go too far out. I'm 87kg.

Well for one, I don't know where the previous thread went to. I'm not really going off road that much into proper MTB territory, I live just outside Manchester and just love having to go on the bike trails for a good ride. I have a subway 2 actually which I love but it's not got a suspension...
