Hi there, after scouring the web I saw a post from 2010 on this message board. Controller and Battery compatibility question.
Technology has advanced obviously so I am seeing what my options are (and thank you for even reading this!). My wife recently purchased this bike at an estate, only to find out that both batteries (and cases) are missing, The original batteries were 24V 8Ah NiCad batteries. The original battery packs had brass contacts on the bottom side of the case, which connected to a tension button-style terminal. The controller unit is a 24v 35A, and the motor is (I'm guessing) a 24volt 450-watt motor. I see online shops offering replacement units, but they are expensive and the shipping will be crazy to Canada. Can I go a different route with Lithium?
Many thanks!
