August 23, 201510 yr Owning an old Panasonic drive bike just gets better all the time http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/27-Ah-26V-E-Bike-Akku-passend-fur-Panasonic-Kettler-Flyer-Kalkhoff-ab-2007-/262014401710?_trksid=p2054897.l4275 My two 4 year old 18ah batteries are still going strong but it's nice to know that a low priced, large capacity upgrade is available.
August 25, 201510 yr In many respects, ebike development has gone backwards since we bought our bikes Kenny.
August 25, 201510 yr Author It seems to me every year the manufacturers feel they must come up with a new upgrade. So they move up to ten speed gears and increase the torque which wears out the drive train in no time. Ten speeds on an Electric assist bike seems pointless to me. Is having to return your bike to the dealers to have your power settings changed a good thing? when a simple sprocket change will keep you sweet with a Panasonic motor. I could go on but that's enough of a rant for today.
