  • I'd recommend you to pose this question on the pedelec.co.uk forum where there is a wider spectrum of knowledge than here
  • When you do post there, and to promote responses, it would be helpful for you to give as much detail as possible about the battery type that goes on your bike, or at least a link to the bike's spec/details.
  • I'm not familiar with your bike nor it's battery so have no idea whether you're stuck with buying a proprietary replacement or if there are suitable substitutes from the general market place

To add to the post above with its sensible advice, it is often possible to rebuild a bike battery, replacing those cells which have become defective. There are various small specialists who offer to do this, and it may be cheaper than a replacement battery.

Hi Nigel, Could you recommend anyone in the Northwest that could possibly repair this battery.
