I think you could have used lighter gauge steel on the battery box, and you need to chop off all 4 bottom corners for drainage.
Looking sharp!
Thanks.
The rotors "should" clear the spokes. I plan on loosely lacing up the wheel to double check clearance once I have time.
I probably could have made the battery box from lighter steel or from aluminum, but I was willing to take some extra ounces to build a solid part.
As far as drainage, it's fine as is. I know to think of these things. The right side of the box allows for drainage and the box sits slightly angled that way.
I'm looking forward to the before/after as well!
