My bike had a LBS fitted warranty upgrade to a SRAM DUB BB, the left bearing had failed at <500km. I'm fairly sure whoever installed it...

Seriously, Photon really is your best choice. The Transition doesn't have a lot of room by the chainstays, which rules out the more...

The back of the motor is shown as 30.55 from the CL of the BB, so you'll have about 7mm clearance between the outer BB casing and the...

Yeah, I see that. CYC specify the chainline as either 59.3, 60.3 or 58.6 (I think) depending on which document you look at. All are a...

According to the CYC Instruction Manual the BB92 set up achieves a centre offset of 0.1mm, which is among the best they list. Chainline...

Those are ISCG tabs, your bike certainly won't have them - this was more about the motor to BB clearance (which, since you will be using...

Don't know, but this might help. You can see there is a lot of clearance - 11mm - between the BB and the back of the motor. (Ignore how...

I was going to make the same comment - mainly because pretty much all the mid drives will significantly and unavoidably increase the...

If the terrain is mostly flat, and you only need a couple hundred watts of assist on a road bike, why are you even bothering with a mid...

Yeah, Photon has heaps of clearance - even the 34T chainring is more of a factor than the motor casing (in most situations).

CYC Photon in cow udder mode is deceiving... as in it's not as bad as it looks clearance-wise. Take a look a how far below the spindle...

I would agree with that part of your statement. Using a hub motor in addition to mid drive will give decent low speed assistance and...

I have renovated the original bearing cup assembly. This involved removing the bearing and shield. Removed the bearing seals, cleaned...

Pressing the shield back into the bearing should be quite hard - it has a lip that is larger than the bearing ID (see my photo) that has...

Your bearing might be slightly off axis.
