    BBSHD Finished ....almost

    Hi Tommie, it's a 52v 13.5ah Whale pack. There is plenty of room on this one, but we had the same bike in a medium and the battery would not fit. Different frame shape. Would stick with a large, if you are going to use a Rockhopper. Put the Specialized decals on, to give it a 'Legit' look :-)

    BBSxx Mid Drive Conversion

    That's a nice looking bike and you seem to have avoided some of the worst issues :) Why did you decide against the Frame pack, was it a weight or strength issue?

    Thanks for the reply Dave, I know Empowered have put their kits on Giant Anthems and Trances and have a conversion kit, but at nearly £60 with out postage, its a bit pricey. i was wondering whether an alternative to this is available in the UK?

    Bafang 750w Mid drive on 13 Incline Alpha 27.5" MTB
