Your battery is built into your motor; we strongly recommend that you do not attempt to open or
disassemble it, as this will automatically void the warranty.
The battery can be recharged in two different ways:
-With the charger for full charge cycles.
-With the energy recovery system while backpedalling or during deceleration.
