Mounting your battery, Center of Gravity.

While lower is better, my 72volt 40aH battery is 50 lbs, and sits right above the back wheel.

Don't attach with bags or anything that can move around. It's the swaying around of the weight that will make you feel unsafe.

I made brackets from solid steel rods bought from home depot.

I had to do a lot of bending, cutting, and drilling, but I can stand on my rack; and it doesn't even bend.

My battery doesn't move even a bit, it's solid on the back, and I don't even notice it when riding.

I put a video in my signature line if you want to see what I mean.
