I bought the most expensive and heavy battery available for my ebike project. Unfortunately, the battery was too heavy for my old bike. While driving to an Evanston bike club ride I heard a loud noise from the back of the car. Note the two new holes below the S in Soma. That’s where the battery used to be.

My bike is at least 20 years old and despite sporadic use of rust repellant it appears that the rust bug has settled in.

There is a cheap and easy fix to the problem. Grin Tech of Canada offers a $35 solution that spreads the load across the down tube (see attached photo). According to my friend John at Roscoe Village Bikes, my frame will be ok.
