Bafang 1000W on an aluminum frame?

[cjayvz]

Hello all, I am wondering if I can put a Bafang 1000W on a Trek 700c FX 1, 27lb aluminum frame.

Thanks!

Yep.

You definitely want to use a torque arm with that.

Mid-drive yes... don't waste any money on a hub motor unless you have a lot of laundry. Also, mid-drives don't need a torque arm they put all the torque into the chain where God intended.
