Arrggghhh!

So with the battery installed in the frame on its T slot rail it still has a couple of mm of movement left to right. Doesn’t sound a lot but once you tune into it when riding that’s the day ruined!!

Simple enough fix. Tape a couple of lengths of door draught excluder or similar soft tubing along the length of the battery.

Trick is to size the tube just right so the battery still slides in but tightly enough to stop any lateral movement.

Result.
