It was just a rack that I bought on Amazon. I think the brand is racktime and it has a 10kg capacity, it seems sturdy to me. Not on the bike right now.

Hmm, looks like the Racktime Lightit on my Allant+7 only turned around. Can’t see how it’s mounted, of course.

Great pics Dave! Now what have you got there on the down tube, neoprene sock for the battery seam? Is it home made or commercial?Another 30kms along Mud Bay and Boundary Bay

Good eye Ron! It's a calf brace I found on Amazon. Comes in a pack of two. Works a treat!

Large?

Yup. That's the size I got. X-Large would work too I suppose, but large is a nice tight fit.

Why are you using it? I have two of them but only use them to protect the battery compartment from dirt and the weather with the battery is out while I’m transporting the bike on the rack.

In looking at the gap between the bottom of the battery and the frame where the battery connections are there is enough of a gap to have junk/muck/water get in there. Not liking the idea of allowing that (especially water) anywhere near the connectors.
These seem to do a good job of keeping that area clean and dry.
Here's some better pics of the gap.

So I began thinking about muck and a bit of water getting into the battery connection area on my 2021 Stance E. Here is what I came up with... Connection spot near the bottom... Possible solution is a neoprene calf brace... Installed very easily, and sits nice and tight... Went...

I thought that was the concern. This is what I bought but just for when I remove the battery during transport on an external rack in nasty weather.In looking at the gap between the bottom of the battery and the frame where the battery connections are there is enough of a gap to have junk/muck/water get in there.

That's a nice looking bike Dave, my delivery date was week 15 (Apr 12-18) but now it's delayed to week 18 (first week in May). As it happens I'm heading up to Quadra Island area on an MC trip for 3 days during that time so with any luck it'll be there so I can see it. They have the Giant kickstands in stock too!Bike needed a rest...

Thanks Ron!
Built well too. I dumped it yesterday on a ride at lunch. Smashed my ribs onto the left handlebar... Ugh that hurts. Shook it off and went out today anyway.
Scuffed up the left grip, and scraped the heck outta the left pedal. Everything else is unscathed... except the owner
I hope your delivery date sticks, you have way more patience than I.
Kick stand in stock you say... Which store, Courtenay or Campbell River?
