    I may order the bbs02b kit and try to fit it, if it wont fit I'll have to find another bike to fit the kit to. I think I'll not buy a battery until I know what bike it will be fitted to. Imagine if it fits on the cube and I have to wait a month for the battery:oops: Thanks for your input Peter

    Peter, on your avatar picture I notice the bike has a battery pack in a bag. What kind of battery is it please? To add to my Cube woes I think I will need a triangular battery or mount a regular one under the downtube. Edit* I have scrolled through your posts and found the for sale post...

    Hello again, I have a few more questions if anyone would be so kind to help me? Been really busy at work so this project has had no attention for a few days. I've taken out the Hollowtech II BB and measured the BB at 73mm. I have printed out the bbs02 diagram and think it will fit but had...

    I know, but I really like the cube. It's taken me years of buying and selling bikes to drop on this one, loads of extras and seen little use.

    I agree with checking measurements carefully. If i bought a bbs and it didn't fit I'd have to sell my cube or sell the kit at a loss.

    I have considered a rear wheel kit as a compromise but do they come with through axles? My cube has a 15mm through axle on the rear.

    You wont be able to go back to a stock setup then if the grinder has been unleashed?

    Sounds like a nightmare to get them setup. If I order the kit from say Aliexpress where would I get different chainrings from and spacers etc. I think I will need a 36t chainring as my current 36t chainring is about 5mm from the chain stay.

    Thanks for the info. It helps to see how others are getting on with fitting these kits. Is that going to work for you?

    Is it normal for the bb to be 76mm? Would a hollow tech II fit on a 76mm bb? I measured it as best I could. Not sure I fancy grinding down the bb on the cube as i wont be able to put it back to stock in the future. Does the hd offer a better chain line?

    I contacted the chap you linked to and asked him. Below is my question and his answer. "Hello Tony, your articles have really helped me and raised some questions. I have a Cube Stereo 2010. My bottom bracket appears to be 76mm wide with a hollow tech II threaded bb. I was looking at a bbs02b kit...

    Thanks for your comment. What model/year Cube was it please? My lad has a Fritz 2015 model which is quite different to my 2010 stereo.

    Yes 36T, you are correct it is very close to the chain stay. I'll have a look at the drawing as suggested. Thanks
