Hello!
I've ordered a BBSHD mid-drive for my RadWagon 4 - which already has a Bafang Hub Motor on its rim/axle. The rear dropouts are 175mm.
Has anyone removed the hub motor and respoked a normal axle with no motor and just a freewheel on a Rad or similar bike before? Is it possible?
I'm speaking as someone with no experience on bike rims, axles, spokes, dropouts, etc.
If respoking something on the rear rim isn't possible, could I buy new rims (front/rear to match)? The rear dropouts are 175mm, front dropouts are 135mm, I'm not sure if these being different is a proprietary thing that has an effect on purchasing rims or if this is normal.
Thanks so much for your time/response it is very appreciated!
