    Yosepower hub kits.

    Thanks for this I'll look into it. I'm not entirely sure it'll be less than the 6mm of the stock one though or am I missing something?

    Yosepower hub kits.

    Thanks for that, it is a bit pricey for what you get but if I can't bodge it some way i will look to this option.

    Yosepower hub kits.

    Thanks that does help. Using Bike calc and with my rear 11-32 cassette is puts the range at 9.6mph to 27.9 mph so with assist at the lower end that should just about work.

    Yosepower hub kits.

    Thanks for this feedback, i had actually started to come to this conclusion myself. I measure the YOSE power PAS to be 6mm thick and so that is the sort of distance I need to find. I tried a wider BB, which worked for the sensor but threw off my Crankset so much i couldn't get into top gear...

    Yosepower hub kits.

    Thanks Neal really appreciate that detailed instruction and not something I would have realised on my own accord. I am actually experimenting with a more physical solution by seeing if i can either make the bottom bracket cup flush with the frame or failing that finding a way to make the...

    Yosepower hub kits.

    Thanks Nealh that's very useful. I am not quite sure how to do the cutting and soldering but i do have a solder iron and so it's time for some practice whilst the PAS is in the post!

    Yosepower hub kits.

    Thanks Nealh, will do as soon as the battery is charged ;) Anyone know of a slimline PAS sensor that would work with the kit?

    Yosepower hub kits.

    Right so I finally got the kit all set after some tinkering with the donor bike (perfectionist). I couldn't get the PAS to fit as work the wider bottom bracket my front derailleur no longer reached top gear at the front, which won't do at all! Only had a short ride around locally but feels...

    Yosepower hub kits.

    That's very kind indeed but think I've just about got there. If I do hit another snag I'll be in contact. Have just fitted a wider bottom bracket and now thinking creatively to try and get the controller pack onto my gt frame :)

    Yosepower hub kits.

    Thanks for your reply. It says hollowtech on the crank but it's from the late 90s so maybe it's not true hollowtech. It's definitely a square taper though. I wasn't aware that you could buy longer bottom brackets, I thought they just came as standard size according to the width not length.

    Yosepower hub kits.

    Hello, I have been trying to install the kit today and enjoying it for the most part until that is I tried to install the PAS sensor. I don;t have Hollowtech 2 but do have Hollowtech 1 on a square taper BB. Problem is that when i fit the PAS and tighten the crank arm it gets so tightly jammed...

    Bike for Mum, must be step through and have hub gears

    Thanks for this steer, that is very useful to know and does probably take that one out of the mix in this case. It may well have gone beyond budget anyway but i will keep an eye on teh auction anyway for future reference. Looks like a very nice bike.

    Bike for Mum, must be step through and have hub gears

    Thanks vfr, I think my Dad is very keen on either this or the Sun Bear, both of which look like solid bikes especially with the 15ah Battery.

    Yosepower hub kits.

    Thanks neal I'll go through these instructions carefully and painstakingly when I'm more rested and hopefully I'll get it. Good thing they have me two as at least all is not lost if I make a mistake.

    Bike for Mum, must be step through and have hub gears

    Thanks woosh that's really appreciated. My dad is now monitoring this thread so he'll see your responses and go from there. My thought is that he'll go for the sun bear with the bfm motor but can I just check what price you'll do for that and if that'll come with the new battery too? I'm sure...
