August 29, 20178 yr Hi, I've had a Zephyr B for over three years now and the battery is starting to play up a bit, by that I mean I'm getting less mileage which I suppose is to be accepted. I gather there's only a 10amp battery available for this bike so did wonder about a change, The Krieger looks a possibility with choice of batteries, would I notice much difference with the crank drive and is it a good drive? Thanks for any help. Peter.
August 29, 20178 yr If you found the Zephyr B OK, I doubt that you'll like a crank drive. It's not nearly as convenient.
August 29, 20178 yr If the battery is removable from the frame then you can get it recelled to give more ah, possibly 30% or more capacity.
September 3, 20178 yr What about a Big Bear? It has a 15ah battery and also a very powerful high-torque motor. I'd say the Krieger is only worth it if you live in a very hilly area. As d8veh said, crank drives are less convenient. I owned a Krieger in the past and now own a Big Bear, and I find the Big Bear to be easier and more fun to ride.

Couldn't agree more - I love my Big Bear too!
