I have wiped out several times on my hyperscrambler2 because my toe tips barely touch the ground. I would like to shorten the seat, partially cut out the seat support tubing, and make the ebike a step-through. If doing this, I still see enough structural integrity, especially with the attached battery in place. Please give me your opinion and don"t tell me to get a new bike.

Does your hyperscrambler2 look like this one?

If so, cutting out the top tube will weaken the frame and make it dangerous to ride.

If you post pictures, we may be able to offer better advice.
 
Don't remove the fat or lean out your ebike,..

You might fall on your ass.

If your feet can't touch the ground on that ebike, then you must be a leprechaun ??

OK, so you might be less than 5' 7" ,..

You could "upgrade" your rear shocks to shorter shocks, or cut the springs down, or just install short straight connecting rods. (But you'd lose your rear suspension.)


My motorcycle had adjustable spring tension, so I could raise or lower my rear end.

Are your shocks adjustable or can you reduce the shock pressure (if they have air?)

You could turn it into a hard-tail ebike with just enough tire clearance to not scrub the underside of your seat.
