Li-Ion is the emerging technology for advanced electric bikes. Our two years experience with Li-Ion Manganese batteries has been encouraging while obviously ultimate real-life longevity is yet to be learned.
Our customers are finding the NiMH batteries in the Giant Lite (since 6 years) and SuedeE (since 4 years) highly satisfactory as far as performance, reliability and longevity.
For battery data (including weight and charging) please see the specific make/model bike page, Spare Parts & Accessories and the Electric Bike Comparison Table.
