![]() ![]() If you don't mind a bit of a project you could upgrade to lithium. It was very torquey but only assisted up to about 16 MPH. On a fresh battery I got about 8-10 -12 miles on that bike. Be sure to get the right Lead acid batteries intended for deep discharge, I dont know much about lead acid chemistry but I do know some are for light duty and others designed for electrics are heavy duty but I forget the terms. Then you can use the same charger and set up will be easier, same case and whatnot. If you measure them you can get replacements probably for $100 -150 total. In that battery case, if you open it up, contains two 12 volt, 12 amp hour lead acid batteries connected in series. I am no expert but I used to own that bike years ago. You are not alone people will help you here, and if you look around some you can learn alot on your own. Would it be advised that I purchase the 3rd party battery? Is it compatible, would it be easy to install? Would I want to install it myself? What would be an easy, moderately priced option for me? Thanks for the help.Īlso, I called the only electric bike place I could find in town and the line was disconnected, so I guess I'm on my own. and I can't even find anyone that will ship to canada either. ![]() but the 'battery packs' made specifically for the currie bikes for $350 with only 6.4AH. ![]() I've found 12AH lithium batteries, just the batteries on ebay for $200. I would definitely like to upgrade to lithium battery ( yeah- does that makes sense so far?) I've been looking at replacement options but I'm kind of confused. I guess this bike only retaliled for $500 so it came with a shitty acid battery. I just purchased a second hand schwinn Izip electric bike for only $200! I works, looks and feels great except that the range is extremely low. I would like to say first of all that I have no idea what I'm talking about, forgive me ![]()
