Are you still going with the belt drive? you can’t cut a belt drive like a normal bike chain- you’ll need to have a split in the frame, or an elevated chainstay.
the blog is fantastic!
Just found this in a DirtRag article on Trek World.
Looks like they found a better place for their battery assist.

I own an electric bike and ride about 7 miles each way to and from work in city traffic.
Total of 14 miles per day. It’s a great way to get around but always scared someone will steal it if parked outside so for now it goes door to door between work and home. It would be cool to be able to conceal the fact that it’s an expensive e-bike. Always feel paranoid as the owner.
