unremovebly battery

[Biker man]

With ebikes you can't remove the battery to charge it . What happens when the battery is finished?

Pedantic perhaps, but, I think that should read:

But, I don't know the answer to your question.

Should charge be swapped to change ? Not much of an e bike if it can only be charged once and then it’s finished.

All batteries are removable, just will take a little engineering for those so called permanent fix units.

Unremovably battery? Deep sadly to the eardroves!

 

[ebikeerwidnes]

it is probably removable but takes some time and tools - rather than the normal battery that you can take out quickly with a key or less

So it's a job for the cycle shop.

So it's a job for the cycle shop.

Or a competent home mechanic

If the battery went on or in the frame, it will be removable. Sometimes you might need to remove a components / covers but it will still be removable.

It would be a case of taking the charger to the bike or the bike to the charger, rather than the battery to the charger!

You've probably read about the Ebikemotion X35 system. Implication is it's a dealer only operation, but here is a video showing removal.

- you obviously need to be fairly competent in bike maintenance as the crankset and bottom bracket need to be removed along with the handle bars and stem. But I also found the following on Ribble's Q+A pages in answer to a customer : 'The main battery of the X35 system is literally the brains of the operation so it is not quite as simple as taking the old one out and replacing it with a new one. The new battery must first be registered to the bike to ensure that all of your ride data and settings are preserved when you fire up the bike again after exchanging the battery. We have yet to encounter a battery that has reached the end of its lifespan as of yet so we have not, to date, sold one to any of our customers. You can expect the pay in the region of £500-£600 for a replacement which is similar to the range extender'.
