Hi Guys
I looking at the next build and would like to use a 29er or a frame up build. What is the best frame for the mid drive BBS setup .. A frame that actually fits the motor and will mount centrally with at least not too much messing about. I know it's all about bottom bracket and how the stays are attached as my carrera would need a fair bit of work to get the motor central so both crank arms are central..so I've set it up the best I can as I don't want to start bending the stays so the motor sits further inboard.. The thought was a 29er will have better rolling and gearing due to bigger wheels.

My first 29er was a Cannondale Trail 6 with a BBS02 fitted with a Lekkie bling ring and was an excellent ride and the bike was only £350 brand new.
I used an EM3EV frame bag for the batteries .
The motor didn't need shimming but it needed some steel putty between the downtube and motor to keep the bolt tab on the left from hitting.
