Cheers!. Think the Surly is the way forward, to be fair I never tried it chain onlybso I may get lucky with the tensoin (unlikely..).
Could do with another Gtech frame with horizontal dropouts..
A little progress was made today, got motor battery and display etc mounted, chains on and chainline looks good (not sure about tensioner though..).
After nearly breaking a finger trying to remove pedals from my old crank arms I gave in and bought some new ones..
Had an hour on it then went...
There's quite a few on here with the crossfire, it is very well thought of!.
Should come with charging instructions, on my Gtech all the lights on the battery go out, on my Samsung pack the led on charger goes green..
I use my Samsung S5 for internet, it is fine as it is (for me!).
If you make it wider I'll have to scroll left and right whitch would be a major pita..
I've gone for a Nuvinci hub on one and the other is single speed.
Prefer the simplicity and self containment of a nice hub system, plus less to clean..
