Why is it imposible to find a hard case for triangle battery

[gersrt]

As the title says. Bag that holds battery is a bit tatty and I want to replace. The only triangle cases I can find are material. Why the hell is it so difficult to find a hard shell box.

Anyone any ideas where these can be got? The must exist... if not someone is missing a big opportunity to make and sell these.

Thanks

Make one. it's not difficult. I made one out of plywood and one out of fibreglass:

Rocky Mountain Element Conversion

I started the conversion today. This one will have one or more novel features. which I'm still trying to work out, so might be a bit slower than what I normally do. I snagged the bike for £380 and the kit cost about £500 including batteries, so I'm hoping to keep the total to less than £1000...

You can get something similar for a Brompton, maybe some design ideas too;

In answer to your question, years ago there could have been a market for them. But now there's too many frames about which no longer have a traditional horizontal crossbar triangle:
