Real-world range

Battery capacity not stated, so we can’t estimate range.

Battery and charger

Use the maker’s own replacement battery, or one the maker or a specialist confirms is approved for this motor system. Voltage, connector and battery-management system all have to match.
Use the original charger, or one the maker approves for this battery. Never use a charger with a different output, even if the plug fits.
Check the battery’s own label (Wh, V and serial) matches what the seller says.
Damaged, swollen, hot or smelly batteries: stop using them, keep them outside away from anything that can burn, and take them to a battery drop-off — never household bins.

Check my battery and charger

Servicing

A first check after the first few hundred kilometres — new cables stretch and bolts settle.
Chain: clean and lube regularly and measure wear — e-bikes wear chains and cassettes faster than regular bikes.
Brakes: check pads and cable tension often — the extra weight and speed wear them faster.
Mid-drive: ask the shop to read the motor’s error log and update firmware with the maker’s diagnostic tool at each service.
Battery: keep it between 20% and 80% for daily use, store it at about half charge, and keep it out of hot cars.

Buying a used one

Run the serial through the free EbikeMate buyer check — theft status, recalls and ownership on record.
Find the frame serial yourself (usually under the bottom bracket) and check it matches the seller’s papers.
Ask for a recent diagnostic printout — most mid-drive systems record battery health, charge cycles and motor hours.
Look for signs of derestriction: tuning dongles, unusual wiring, or a top assisted speed above 25 km/h on the display.
Ask for the receipt, the original charger and the key for the battery lock.
