Does the Bafang BBS02 mid drive fit on this bike?

I am thinking of getting a BBS02 and putting on a GT Men's Aggressor Pro Mountain Bike. Does anyone here know if it will fit? Here's a picture of the bike.

The BBS02 should fit fine on the GT. The down tube doesn't have any crazy curves so you should get enough clearance from the ground. The three speeds I use on the rear cassette are 11-17-28 and it has an 8-speed spacing. This is for a straight chainline. It has worked well for the last 2 years. It looks like the GT will make a fine ebike.

What front sprocket do you use? The website specifies 46tooth for hilly areas.

I started with the 46 tooth and then changed over to the 30 tooth. I ride all off road and my maximum top speed is around 22 mph.
