Which battery do I choose?
Are you ready to take your bicycle to the next level with an electric conversion? One of the most crucial decisions you'll need to make is choosing the right battery voltage. With many options available, how do you know which one is the correct fit for your bike? Let's dive in and explore how to select the ideal battery for your electric bicycle conversion.
Understand Your Needs
Before diving into the sea of battery options, take a moment to assess your needs. Consider factors such as the distance you plan to travel, the terrain you will be riding on, and the weight of your bicycle. Understanding your requirements will help you narrow down the choices and find a battery that meets your specific needs.

Look at Capacity and Voltage
When choosing a battery for your electric bicycle conversion, pay attention to both the capacity and voltage. The capacity of a battery is measured in amp-hours (Ah) and determines how far you can travel on a single charge. Voltage, on the other hand, affects the speed and power of your electric bicycle. Make sure to select a battery that will be compatible with the controller and motor you intend to use.
Check the Size and Weight
Another crucial factor to consider is the size and weight of the battery.

Opt for a battery that fits the type of riding you will be doing. We specialize in larger capacity batteries to get you the most range for you ride.
