It doesn’t really need the panel or the rear frame from a structural perspective if the seat is in place, but it stops things coming out the back!
It’s a good point though. It’s a handy looking spot behind the seat for lock and chain, but I could cut that bit out and angle the back of the box if I don’t use it. Would probably take 1.5kg out the weight by doing that. It’s a question of if it’s worth the effort and whether I’ll notice 1.5kg on a total bike weight around 40kg!

Looking great, and love the adjustable element. With the internal metal frame do you even need the back panel if you have the seat panel?
Just thinking weight saving
