It looks like my battery is in need of replacement. Has anyone had any luck having them rebuilt or is it best to just get a new one?
It currently has a Samsung 48V downtube battery. I attempted to take it for a ride this morning but, only got about 20ft before it shut down.
I did a test with a voltmeter ( I'm not that skilled with a meter) anyway, I got a reading of 53v with the meter set at V... (200) I tried a few more times using just peddle assist but after a couple hundred feet, the battery showed just 50% on the meter after being fully charged the day before. I'd say the battery is aprox. 5 years old (bought the bike used 3 years ago)
