Just wondering if anyone has got one of these style batteries fitted to a regular 17.5" frame?

Inside the frame of course :p

Every frame is different. You have to measure the space you have. Then I can tell you.

You may have to go and measure a frame to see if it will fit .
I have the same one fitted in a 18" Norco frame and there is plenty room,
my inside triangle measures Drop tube 600 , Top tube 505 & Seat tube 345.
Battery is 350 X 128.
I would say as long as the seat tube inside measurement is310 min and top tube is not less than 460 then should fit.

Thanks Nealth. I don't have the option to measure the bike physically, but I can go on their website and cross reference the measurements you have provided.

d8veh has the 48v one and I have the 36v one, the cases are 09 type.
Comparing the Geo with my bike than they aren't to far apart.
C on my bike is 550,
D is 450,
G IS 730.
K is 302
I would be 99% sure that it will fit quite easily.

The 48v and 36v cases are the same. I'll see what i can figure out from that website.

By scaling the drawing and using the small size frame, I get a triangle with three sides 425mm, 316mm and 515mm, which should easily be enough. It's only these modern frames with strange kinks in them and suspension units that fill up half the triangle that you get problems with.
