Hello all,
Got an old Fuji Bikes Absolute 3.0 frame from a friend. Sadly it turns out to be Aluminum and only has 130mm rear dropouts. I can't find any 130mm rear hub motors at all. Even if I somehow pull the dropouts to 135mm I'm having trouble finding anything over 1000w. It appears it may be very dangerous to pull an aluminum frame?
Is my only option to try and find a higher power mid drive unit? This bike appears to have 700c wheels (is that 28 inches?), and I would like to go a stable/easy 32-34 mph max to make my travel time similar.
Anybody have any recommendations or places I should look?
Thank you, have a good day.
