About this series

Why buyers choose Silver Fish

The Silver Fish profile is the classic retrofit shape: a tapered shell that slides into a bracket on the frame or seat post. If you are replacing a Silver Fish case or building a conversion kit, this is almost certainly the family you want.

Material options run from straight ABS through ABS+PC for higher impact toughness to ABS with aluminium-alloy reinforcement for heavier duty cycles. Several models are available with the internal structure exposed as a technical drawing.

Volume pricing moves once you are ordering in the hundreds, but the minimum stays at one piece — repair workshops buy single units from us every week.

Also known as: also searched as a seat-post or seat-tube battery case, or simply a “fish” case. Bracket spacing varies between suppliers — if you are matching an existing mount, send the bracket dimensions with your enquiry.

  • The retrofit standard — Fits frame and seat-post carrier brackets already on the market.
  • ABS, ABS+PC or aluminium-reinforced — Pick the duty cycle, not just the price.
  • Wide voltage coverage — Most models span 36 V to 72 V.
  • Repair-shop friendly — Single-unit orders ship the same way as container loads.

Common questions about Silver Fish

How many cells fit in a Silver Fish battery case?
Across our 16 Silver Fish housings the largest mould takes 130 cells on 18650 and 91 on 21700 — the same mould physically holds fewer of the fatter 21700 format. Cell count per model is listed on each product page.
What voltages do Silver Fish cases cover?
Across the 16 models the range spans 36 V to 72 V. Voltage follows the cell count you build to — 10S is 36 V, 13S is 48 V, 14S is 52 V — so pick the case by cells, not by the label voltage.
Can I order a single Silver Fish case?
Yes — MOQ is one piece on every model in this series, quoted within five hours. Single-piece orders ship from stock for the common moulds; rare configurations are moulded to order.
Where does a Silver Fish case mount?
On the down tube, low and close to the frame, with the pack sliding out sideways. It is the format that disappears visually — popular on city and folding bikes where the case is part of the silhouette.
