E-bike battery cases for tricycles and e-trikes
A trike removes the handling objection to a heavy rack-mounted pack, which makes it the one build type where the biggest envelope is also the easiest choice.
Who this is for: Makers of e-trikes, mobility trikes and last-mile delivery trikes.
What this build actually constrains
Weight distribution is not a problem
The whole reason a rack case is a compromise on two wheels does not apply here.
Access matters
Trikes are often used by riders who do not want to lift a pack out of a frame. A case that slides off a rail is easier.
Carrying capacity is the point
If a trike exists to carry things, the battery should not be taking up the load space — or should be sized to.

Integrated
Hiding the battery inside the frame buys a clean silhouette, which is not what a trike buyer is optimising for, and it costs capacity and service access.

Can I fit two battery cases to a trike?
Send us the build and we will say which format works
Frame envelope, cell type, series and parallel count is all we need. If the answer is that none of our moulds fit and it needs a new one, we will say that rather than sell you the nearest thing.
