It worked OK with my mech. I guess the alignment to the chainring wasn't optimal, but I didn't notice anything

The 5mm x 15mm spacers are to convert a front hub to boost. The 3mm x 12mm are for the rear. Main issue I've had with Ali Express is the time it takes for orders to arrive, but given the price one can hardly complain. Just needs to be factored in. The most critical component is the long...

Have assumed 6 bolt rotors not centre lock. If needed centre lock adaptors do exist, but harder to track down

Yes. Mike I'd right. You have to move the rotor out 3mm. Try something like MTB hub boost conversion kit 142-148 in ebay

Thinks there's quite a few kike it on ebay nowadays

I bought this kit to do the same. Came from US company called bla k mountain or something like that He can have this one if he lives anywhere near Monmouth UK

Have a look at the blurb on this. They describe as hooked teeth. That's what nine look like

You even see it in the OPs picture of the chainring

You were right. Not only was it designed with shark toothed profile, the cheap ones are steel. bring on 20k

I’ll see if i can find any old pics of e bike, but it’s true that it’s been shark toothed for a looong time

Thanks to the OP for posting his experiment I’ve done almost 10,000 Kim’s now. All on GX chains, which know understand is not the way to go, it am currently locked into my own hot wax experiment with the GX so stuck there for a while. Typically only getting 700kms from a chain, but again that’s...

I have just done same on an E160. I connected the two hoded with a sram connectimijig (little gizmo with two opposite threads) pulled through easily

10k km for me. Still on third motor which has lasted for quite a while. Expect a 4th will come at some point. What did you pay for motor number 4?
