You don’t want the battery to completely run out, so recharging at 50% is advised. If the EBike is being stored during winter, when the weather is nice get it out and ride it just to keep everything working and moving. When your EBike is not in use we recommend that the battery is stored at 40-60% charge, this maintains the cells in the battery. We also recommend storing the battery indoors or somewhere where the temperature is fairly consistent.
Ebikes are still bikes, so general maintenance such as keeping them clean, oiling them regularly (check selection of our eBike lubes and cleaning products) and checking tyre pressures at least every other week, is important. EBikes are fine to use in the rain but please do not leave your bike outside in the wet for extended periods. Salt spray should be also be washed off as soon as possible.
Your bike will be sold with a power adaptor and power cable to plug into the mains. There’s a socket on the battery you attach it to. Many EBikes let you remove the battery so it can be charged indoors, if you don’t have a plug elsewhere.
Keeping the tyres inflated to the recommended pressure can increase battery range as much as 15%. It’s important to keep your EBike regularly serviced as items like rubbing brakes or incorrectly adjusted gears will reduce the range from your battery.
At The Powerhouse we have a fully equipped eBike service Centre and are authorized to diagnose, service and repair any electric bike.
