The Benefits of LFP Batteries
You’re on your electric bike, commuting home after work. There are just a few blocks left as you stop for a red light at the busiest intersection in the neighborhood.

Fall is here!
With fall weather officially here, we still have a few weeks left to enjoy our bikes on the open road. Your helmet is on, the tank is full, and you hit that start button—only instead of the growl of the engine, you hear a click. There is nothing worse than the dreaded sound— the silence, in fact —of a dead battery. Although, battery technology has advanced dramatically over the last century, it is still important to conduct regular battery maintenance for your vehicle.
