G gspeed Finding my (electric) wheels Jun 15, 2020 17 2 Jan 24, 2021 #1 I thought one of these would make a good ebike. Pardon our interruption... An AKM-100H motor and battery etc. should make quite a light ebike. Anyone have opinion ?

G gspeed Finding my (electric) wheels Jun 15, 2020 17 2 Jan 25, 2021 #3 Thanks I'm completely new to bikes. Would it be possible to fit disc brakes to it ?

G gspeed Finding my (electric) wheels Jun 15, 2020 17 2 Jan 25, 2021 #7 I don't suppose you could fit disc brakes to the back though. What's the correct name for the back forks lol !

Rear frame to the drop outs are often referred to as the bikes stays. Last edited: Jan 25, 2021 Reactions: gspeed
