| Rear Shock Brace?
For those of you running without the battery holder, how are you bracing up your rear shock mounts? I'm running the Flying Dutchman Racing electronics box in the back. Thanks! |

The best way I think to do it is pick up a rear shock tower from Bill at BGR. They are awesome

Axial 55mm aluminum post. Stiffens it up very nicely and costs like $5 for two of them.

I am using a piece of 3/16 brake line that I threaded for the screws that I'm using and also I have the top of my cage bent down using it as a brace. I've got picture but haven't figured out how to post them from my iPhone or iPad.
