No, I didn't bid, he was accepting offers, so I put in an offer (like saneagle did on the last auction). He did not reply. But then again, I put my offer in not long before the auction ended, so maybe he did not have time to reply, dunno.
Anyway...I prefer a large frame, 19 or 20 inches, this one was 17". But at the right price (like less than 40 quid) I could probably make a 17" frame work, worth a shot.

Battery might be a tight squeeze.
Performance bearings is the company you're referring to.
Service for a Bosch performance CX gen 4 is £362
Of course such a service isnt a yearly thing as it appears is being implied. Most motors will happily run for years without needing a service. The motors are sealed for life and if kept dry will do in excess of 50,000 miles (80,000km) without problem.
The rest of the bike in say a yearly service is probably going to be in the region of £100, maybe £150
Yearly if you are diligent on servicing. probably find once every 2 or 3 years is fine.

An entire BBS01B kit without battery is about £245: you could buy a brand new motor kit every year, swap over the displays and sell the old motor kit as new with zero on the display's odo for about £245 = £0?
An entire new hub motor costs that or less: you could buy a new hub motor every year and sell the old one on ebay for about £100 = £50 cost per year.
All to become illegal of course.
No it wasn't an engine rebuild, it was a basic service of gears and brakes. It needed a shock service (recommended every 50 hrs!!!!). Fork seal replacement (every 50 hrs!!!), new dropper cable (probably unnecessary), new gear cables (probably unnecessary), £300 labour = £406.91 +VAT. This was the guy. I think this was that video, but not sure because in the one I previously saw, I'm sure the cost was £600 and he said £1000 was more typical, and I'm sure I remember him bleeding the brakes:

for fox its 125 hours, which can equate to between 1500 and 2000 miles of actual use
For rockshox its 100 hours.
Though these are just 'recommended' and in reality its a fair bit longer.
This is the price list of a cytech qualified professional mechanic I've known for 30 years(he was the official Shimano team mechanic at the 2020 Olympics, so not just some bloke off you tube)
I hardly use this chap, because he's stowed out pretty much all year, though he does lend me his tools like bearing presses.
Another professional mechanic i've used in the past to service forks, though there it was more a problem solving job, as i got completely flummoxed - It was a non functioning but new damping cartridge that just wasnt giving me full damping so always best to have a pro run a practiced eye over it and cost me 40 quid, and a choice pastry.
His price list.

If you are wanting a really good up for about anything set of brakes, Merlin cycles have the Shimano m501/m520 at £175 for a complete bikes worth.
I had these on my suss ebike before replacing them with the Hope T4V4(basically because Im a Hope tart) and they are very good and very reliable.
You won't ever worry about stopping in any situation.
I've also seen real world reviews by Enduro/DH riders where they are scoring highly.
Keep in mind that your brakes are your life and shouldn't be skimped upon.

A bit of a gamble. TSDZ8 for £142. It might need new controller or not. Question is if motor works despite faulty battery display. It might be worth to buy even for spare parts.
