I revamped my previous build:

I switched the brushed GNG for a BBS02 and a Calibike for 2x 6S Multistar 16000 mah.
That saved about 7lbs bringing me down to a svelte 47lbs
The stock chainring didnt let me use the lower gears, I picked up one of the 42T italian
chainrings from hie2kolob and so far so good!
The battery box is a Radio Shack project box slung underneath the downtube. This box
fits very nicely between the cranks, I'd really recommend it. It has to be kept straight to
avoid the cranks; there were bottle bosses on the underside on this bike so I screwed the
lid directly to the frame which keeps it perfectly lined up. Gorilla tape is also used to keep
the weight off the screws (but tape alone would probably shift too much)
No clearance issues on the front tire, even if I let the shock pressure all the way out and
jump on the front a lot. In fact I positioned it for the stock chainring and could move it down
an inch more.
If you find a good way to mount it, this battery + box under downtube + BBS02 is
a sweet combo!
