SummaryXiaomi M365 Pro Luggage RackA 3D printable luggage rack design for the Xiaomi M365 Pro electric scooter that does not prevent the folding down of the handlebars for carrying.Note: This is a GPLv3 open-source project. A link to the github repo containing the full OpenSCAD source code can be found below.OverviewThe design includes a 3 part rack (left stay, right stay and rack surface) that mounts in place of the existing side covers of the M365 pro scooter. The rack is designed to fit around the existing hardware (such as the disc brake calliper) without the need to alter any parts. Since the rack blocks access to the original folding hook (mounted on the rear mudguard) the design includes a new hook design which is higher and placed further back to compensate for the angle of the original hook's mount.The design requires a strong flexible plastic and is therefore suitable for filaments such as PETG and ABS. The design requires a printer with a 20x25cm print surface.Maximum safe weight on the rack is approximately 5KgsAssembly instructionsRequired hardwareThe following hardware is required for assembly (in addition to the 3D printed parts):M5x16mm screw (used to secure the hook in place of the original M5x10mm screw)M5 Nylon nut (you could use a standard nut, but be sure to thread-lock it)M5 spring washerM5 washer8x M3x0.5 threaded brass inserts6x M3x10 screwsSuperglueRed Reflective tape 20mm wideCraft knifeAssemblyBasic mountingRemove the mudguard and the original hook.

Note that the hook is designed so you can fit a 5mm spanner into the hook to tighten the nylon bolt.Remove the original side covers. Glue 2 support pins into the centre holes of the rack stays. Insert two M3 brass inserts into each stay using a hot iron (such as a soldering iron) - ensure the insert is straight and flush with the surface. Superglue two support pins into each stay. Affix the left and right rack stays using the original hex screws (use thread-lock).Press the rack surface onto the left and right stays as well as down into the 'U' mount of the hook (this should be easy to do and not require any force). Screw into place using 4x M3x10 screws (use thread-lock).Note that the left stay and the rack surface have two additional slots each for M3 brass inserts (on the base of the stay, and under the rear of the surf
