Not wanting to get something custom made I am looking for a frame pack that will provide the beste fit on a cruiser bike. Specifically the Electra Cruiser.
This is a standard Electra 2015 Coaster 7. It's the same as a 7D Lux. It has a Luna 52 volt 24 amp in a Luna bag.
Note the air gap at the top of the seat tube and the bend in the front of the bag. The battery has a pad of closed cell shipping material where it rests on the BBSHD. This was as close as I could come to squaring up the bag/battery with my seat tube.
This is the same bike/battery combo. I wanted to point out the water bottle holder that I cut and spread to hold the bottom of the bag in place over the motor. It's a good trick.
This is the same setup in an Electra Fat cruiser. The triangle on this frame is a little larger and the pak fits better.
Luna had a 3 X 3 X 8 rectangular 10 amp battery that would also fit in a handlebar bag but I don't know if they will ever restock it.
There was also a 4 X 6 X 8 that had great possibilities but I haven't seen it in a year.
Since you are using an Electra Fat cruiser maybe that new 28 amp triangle would fit. Moving to that 24 amp triangle was the best move I have made with the bike. I can now go anywhere without range anxiety.
My Luna bag doesn't support the battery. The battery is held up by large wire ties inside the bag and they are then tied to the frame. The bag is only covering the battery.
