Hi,
I love my Mountain bike but just haven’t been able to get out and ride for the past couple of years and so I’m going to try and convert it to an E-Bike instead of buying another bike. Should be a fun bike if I can make it happen with help from the folks here. It’s a OWB 29er currently with a White Industries ENO singlespeed drivetrain that I hope to salvage my crank arms and rear singlespeed hub from with the option to add gears later. Those plans might change depending on how impractical that becomes but I have to start with something. I plan to buy a 1000W BBSHD kit and I guess I’ll end up trying to get a 52v Jumbo shark battery depending on fitment but just a quick look at the frame and It seems like I’ll have room for most batteries.
Let me know what you think of this bike in it’s current form as suitable for an ebike build and I hope to get ordering parts soon. Thanks. The pic is a little blurry as it’s an old pic and really the only one I can currently find of the bike (taken in Annadel State Park where I hope to ride it part time)
