A very low-cost modification is to un-solder the right angle pins of the motor's "Push Header Shim" and replace them with a two-pin straight header. If you're (for example) using Jumper Jerky, the original design leaves the plastic housings of the connectors hanging down vertically from the motors, significantly reducing the floor clearance (down to about 8mm). If you're only going to operate your robot on a flat surface like a wood, concrete or linoleum floor then this modification is probably not necessary.
