So I have a rear rack battery 48v 20ah the kind in the aluminum case that fit on those handy slide rails.
first off, yea should have gone triangle bag, was thinking that but the aluminum case just seemed safer when I was shopping, and i like the idea of being able to lock the battery to the frame
anyway, I have a full suspension bike

so I'm just tying it down to my rear rack now but I was thinking its a shame not to use the rear shock for the battery.
would taking a seat post rack and maybe adding arms to attach to the rear shock arm where it pivots on the down tube . . . hmm is that gonna work?
or let me hear from all you folks out there who have rattled around with a batt on a rear rack for years with no problem
in a bag with minimal padding now I might just add a yoga mat and bolt the slide rail mount on top of the pad (better more dense foam ideas?)
