If I were you I would check the clearance from your tyre to top of frame tubes .I think the problem your going to have is your having a flat seat .can't the m unit go were the battery is and get a smaller battery.and make a new battery box in that location just a thought .

One step ahead of you yozzer. Already have buddy and you're right, the flat seat unit I've made will get hit by the tyre if it bottoms out, so I'm either going to add a rail to the unit I've already made to lift by the 20mm I need or change it.
When I spoke to Hagon today they told me they can change the travel from the standard 80mm to 60mm so there's a chance to get a little back.
I'm thinking of making a box for the m-unit that may fit behind the middle support. If that won't work then I might go that way. Thanks for the idea though I hadn't thought of that cause I've got a bit blinded by the idea of getting it out on its own.

Yes buddy but attached to the seat so when it's covered it hides the extra support. Now I've got another idea. Cheers dude appreciate the input. Nice one.

So glad to have read this before starting mine... Hope you are getting sorted.
And if I claim to be a wise man, it surely means that I don't know.

Thanks pops. It's at the powder coasters as I write this. Had a complete change of plan.
Pictures of the new ideas will be on my scrambler build.
It's good to have the input of others that have gone before you.
