Default Aluminum Brace is the way to go.

I am running my battery pack centered and broke two CF braces....all my own fault of course (grin). Today I went with an Aluminum Knitting Needle (thanks Slotmachine for the idea) and 8-32 threaded rod. The Needle was already Blue and it was the 8.5mm size. Weds will tell me the results. Also, I decided to use a fastener from the inside above the motor to hold the brace. I put a Nylock topside, then a Steel Hat Bushing, a washer or tow and another Nylock.
