Hi Guys,
Sorry if this question has been asked before but I couldn't find a topic that deals directly with it.
I'm trying to compile a list of full suspension bikes that are easily compatible with the BBSHD
Many bikes have the correct BB type or can be adapted to BSA using the correct adaptor however there seems to be quite a lot of bikes who's external BB shell is too thick for the Bafang to be installed.
I was hoping we could compile a list of full suss bikes that are known to convert easily.
If you can leave the specifics of the model, which year, which model version etc, that would be a fantastic resource for those of us currently trawling through eBay asking people to measure the diameter of there external BB shell and getting very little response
Thanks for all your help
And again sorry if this info is already out there.

Please don't forget to post the year your bike was manufactured as similar models from different years vary drastically.
