Hi all,
This is going to be my first attempt at converting a bike so pleased bear with me.
As this is my first attempt I need it to be simple and cheap, I currently have a Carrera 29er and would like to do a front wheel conversion. The kit I'm looking at buying is this from eBay;
https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https://www.ebay.co.uk/ulk/itm/153325633200
So my first question is this, will this 28inch conversion kit fit my 29er? Reason I'm looking at this is because I can save over £100. Second question is will my 29er tyres fit the 28inch rim? Unless I'm misunderstanding the posts I've been reading from various forums, the 28inch and 29er share the same rim size and it's the tyre that gives it the difference in diameter. So if I understand that right, I can remove the tyre that comes with this kit, 28inch and put my tyre on it and turn it into a 29er? I do apologize if this sounds absolutely ridiculous.
This is the battery I have brought from a mate, 10.4Ah 48V Dolphin Type Downtube Battery Lithium Ion LG m26 cells UK charger https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01L2BK9TW/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_6QbICbPJ39FDC
I probably will be doing around 10miles a day for work, will 10ah be suitable?
Thanks in advance.
