So I thinking to put a mid drive on my scott aspect 960 2021 red model but I'm not sure what the bottom bracket size is on the scott website it says its 73 but when I checked it came up with 74.0mm so I'm thinking what size do I go with? Do I buy the bbshd which comes with 68mm to 73 or do I get the 73-100mm someone please help me ASAP

The standard HD will fit, but you need to ensure the motor casing will not foul on the chainstay. Post a clear photo of the BB with the bike inverted.

The chainstays look fine, but the oversized downtube will make the motor hang very low. You may also have to reroute those cables/brake line, although the front deraileur one can be removed.

Do you know any sites that sell bbshd?

Various suggestions on your other thread, I can't really recommend any others. Eclipse would be my choice, being a UK company and a fairly keen price.

What days do eclipse work I've been emailing them since Friday about the BAFANG BBSHD 48V 1000W 68MM MID DRIVE MOTOR KIT,do you think this would fit my bottom bracket I know It says 68mm but what's the max this kit can take for the bottom bracket.

I've no idea when they work, the std HD fits 68-73mm BB. On 73mm, I don't think there is enough thread for the second lock ring, so most apply Loctite thread lock on the first ring, this appears to work OK.

Eclipse are generally very good, just a bit 'distant'. Could be
Covid related delay. Keep trying.
