I recommend this product

ConsNo securing bolts in an American BB if BB Cartridge fitted.

ProsThe Bafang fittings secured it in position required

I have just successfully used this eccentric bottom bracket in an American BMX style bottom bracket to enable a Bafang Mid Drive electric motor to be installed. With the standard concentric American to EU converter fitted the motor could not be fitted because there was too little clearance but this was overcome with the eccentric model.

Is this only eccentric bottom bracket for the Thorn Raven? Is there a guide to installing it?

Eccentric bottom bracket

By Tim Start

I have the bracket shown here and would like to adjust it. What tool do you recommend to insert and twist? I had thought of a pin wrench but the pins look too thin.

Many thanks.

I'm looking for an eccentric bottom bracket adapter for a frame I'm building up

By Wolf

I'm looking for an eccentric bottom bracket adapter for a frame I'm building up, bottom bracket is a BMX style 51.5mm diameter 68mm long. I'm wondering if this would be suitable to use.

SJS Customer Service:

In theory, this would probably work, we would prefer to test fit to confirm.

Can I use this ebb on a 2009 felt solo 9?

By Marcus

16 Jan 2020

I did some measurements with the ebb that came with it and it had the same measurements. I do not like the felt one as it uses a wedge, also would it be possible for you to email the instructions or point me to were I could find them on the web.

Thanks
Marcus

SJS Customer Service:

Hi, I don't think you can. This insert is designed for use with Thorn frames that have two set screws in the bottom bracket shell which are used for adjustment and position fixing. I believe the 2009 Felt Solo 9 does not have these screws as it uses a wedge system. There are no instructions but here is a link https://bit.ly/2TsGQGr to a blog showing how it works.

Thanks
