What about something like this? https://www.polycase.com/wc-24f
Its a box…thats what I am trying to avoid.
Well I am going to build 2 eMTBs because I will have no one to ride with if I only do one.
We will go to some rip some fuggin trails!
I am still waiting on you and @bigben to figure out a pretty top mount solution though. Chop chop
Transparency though… And dat polycarbonate. Mmmmm
Im working on it . The one above is a 3 piece system to the pieces can be individually printed and the reinforced, plus the lid should be water tight and if you use thumb screws, easy to remove.
Still just a dumb box.
I want something that actually adds to the aesthetics instead of taking away.
I like the pyramid design @mmaner is working with then skinning it in a CF that matches the rest of the build well…
Yeah transparency would be nice, maybe a sticky about keeping industry sensitive info off site?
Elegant way to get everyone back on topic

this is not a democracy - you use the forum with full knowledge that its owner and moderators are the ones running the show

This is borderline offensive because as a moderator I work hard and in your interest to make sure that the forum stays a focused and respectful environment. I would think that having run for a few years now free of major legal issues, people would have trust in the leaders to continue doing their job well.
This is simply not true. I do not have access to PMs and even if I did I would only include myself when asked to be included.
I was thinking the same thing! Very smooth!
I don’t rly mind the box shape, but I can always spice it up with stickers and stuff. I just rly like being able to see the electronics through the top while I’m riding. I think I’ll do top mounted in my next build
Cool your jets kiddo. I edited the post to show the reality of the situation.
While true, it would be nice if we could be user run and FUNDED.
Like NPR or something. I know I would be a contributing membet
I fully understand why this is unlikely, but it would be great for the community.
Before the “go start one” shit from the peanut gallery, I love this place, but there are always points of improvement and there is already such a huge body of information here…
I’m in total agreement with every part of that.
I can fund it.
Edit:
I imagine our inboxes are filled with half-baked ideas, buys / almost-buys / sorry I can’t buy(s), and a hundred esk8 startups that may never be realized - but that’s the fun, here.
To even picture Jason, with the financial, personal and professional stress of this latest shipment, could even have the time or interest to look at PMs is really, really hard for me to see. I’ve been that CEO with a family.
Listen to @b264 esk8 Industry people should not use PM on any free site, anywhere, for any B2B negotiations, including Facebook.
https://telegram.org is the IM for angel investors in the Bay Area for many, many reasons. Billions, tbh. Wickr at Uber? I’m the one to blame.
Jason must protect his business, folks. That’s how it works, and here, Jason gets all the trends under one roof: his. Very smart use of marketing spend, and I think the R2 Drivetrain contest is a huge step towards structuring this marketing spend.
Yet if you take a moment and just consider all the shit Enertion takes every day, for staying their course on their hubs - there’s a few of us here who are executives that I am sure can correlate - seriously, we just don’t have the time.
All that being said, the idea to .org the site is a very good one - only because, theoretically, the site can be sold out from underneath us, or turned into a picture book of esk8 builds on Amazon, or any number of things that are wholly outside of our control.
I’d buy the book, tho
Also, check this shit out!
Trippy Astronauts care not about our shenanigans!
That’s frickin awesome… How did you get the graphic on the board?
Also means that onloop has all the ferret porn and duck pics that have been passed around
