Magic Pie 2 on a 29 inch bike wheel
« on: July 03, 2013, 01:06:44 AM »
Hi all. I have a 29in mountain bike and I'm thinking of putting a Magic Pie hub motor on the front wheel. I've looked at the kits but there doesn't seem to be a kit for a 29inch wheel. Is it possible/easy to make your own wheel with the hub motor in it? Where would I find appropriate sized spokes so that I can build up the wheel?

Thanks

Hi andto the forum.

The solution may be very simple:

It amazes me that a 29er is just a 700c with a mountain bike style tire. Why do they have to make things so confusing.
