Here's what the install ends up looking like on my . I haven't cleaned up the zip ties yet because the battery is only temporary (I'm going to get a smaller one that fits better).

Instead of the standard anchor bracket, I screwed a chain tensioner into that anchor bolt hole (cycles.eco/collections/tsdz2-a) because eccentric bottom bracket + chainstay. There's some foam protecting the frame in case the motor moves.

bike nerd stuff

I want to add a mid-drive motor ( or more likely TSDZ2) to this :

It has an Enviolo/Nuvinci rear hub, and an to tension the chain. I don't really want to switch away from the Nuvinci to a derailleur, but the motor will most certainly not permit the eccentric BB to move & will be replaced w/ an adapter.

Any else done this, and have a suggested chain tensioner model that will work w/ this kind of hub?
