That's a nice looking leather case you made and most people would not know it holds a big battery. I use the battery bag on my bike to carry other stuff like a multi tool, fix a flat, umbrella, flash light, cable and lock, drink, etc.

decided my motorized bicycle needs more storage so i am in the process of making an in frame bag to match the front bag and battery bag. i use me bike for work so carry lunch, tools and other things and never seem to have enough room, got the bag tooled and cut out today, planned on finishing it today however i ran out of thread to sew it together, the thread i use is a heavy waxed thread and of course not available on island so i just ordered some and some more skull snaps to close it, i will post pictures when i finish it, i think its going to be awesome and give a nice finishing touch to my electric cruiser

yes my fat butt needs to pedal a little. I have a mountain between here and work and coming home its a heck of a long climb and you do have to pedal non stop all the way up it. big time leg burn.
i have the magic pie back on my mountain bike. replaced all the spokes with 12ga stainless on i and having a hoot with it on the trails and jumping every thing that is jump-able lol

Sorry about the necro post but I found this spot searching for other Trek Pure E Bikes. Coincidentally we lived on St Croix in the middle 80's. Watching your video reminded me of how terrifying driving could be there. We still have friends on island and will some day visit again!
