Now this is how you offer unsolicited advice. :D You're absolutely right that one pack makes more sense but I do switch the battery packs amongst the other bike in the household. The switch I added makes it easy, of course. When I'm going for a ride with a friend I we both get a pack. Also that...

I'm thinking someone doesn't like being stood up to. This someone is used to showing up in men's spaces and immediately men explaining things. You didn't even read what I wrote you just started in on the "battery position thing". Also, how many men have you explained that they need to hold on to...

Very, very nice.

You're assuming I don't know where to place a battery pack. You are also assuming I don't know how to ride a bike correctly. I'm going to say this as friendly as possible but you are being a little condescending. Wondering why that is? Anyway... I mentioned in my post I know about the low...

However I have two side panniers installed for the battery packs I'm building specifically to fit them, which I believe is...

Thanks, and sure. It's a KMB Beach Cruiser Bicycle Frame with Dummy Gas Tank. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Beach-Cruiser-Bicycle-Frame-with-Dummy-Gas-Tank-White/262351302912?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649

Thank you. :)
