and whats your wheel size, 20, 26, 29 ??

Alfine 8 +BBS02 here with a 26" wheel,

46t chainring and 18t on the Alfine,

will probably change to a 16t for a little more top speed.

Why are you changing? What size front chainring do you currently have? Guessing a 46 like Tommie?

Hybrid, so 700C I imagine. How do you get on with the gear changes?

At the moment I have an 18 sprocket on the Alfine and 46 chainwheel 700c wheels I have not yet tried it out yet as I am waiting on parts.
The bafang is a 500 watt 36 volt
