Hi there,
I have recently purchased a second hand Cube Stereo full suspension bike. It is the best bike I have owned. I am a reasonably fit big bloke nearing the big 50 and have a very physical job (removals) and walk well over 10k steps daily.
My 17 year old son has now taken pole position on our rides and I want to be able to ride with him without throwing up.
I have considered getting a factory e-bike but love this Cube.
My recent research has confused me somewhat. I'm not sure a mid drive conversion is possible and the rear of the cube has a 15mm through axle. Not happy to go for a front wheel kit.
Has anybody converted a full suspension to a useable standard?
Thanks
Bodge
Hi,
Just joined this forum as I saw this question and might be able to answer it.
I have a 2015 cube stereo 120 HPA, which I installed a bafang bbs01b mid drive motor onto.
The one problem I had was the casing of the internal drive gear fouls on the right hand chain stay. This was overcome by installing a 2 mm spacer on the right hand side of bottom bracket.
The problem with that is the bottom bracket is already at the maximum for the bbs01 (67 - 73mm)
This ment i could not install the lock ring for the bb mounting nut.
So instead I used locative thread locking compound.
I have been using this fir 2 years with no problem.
Hope this helps.
