With the beautiful Easter weather today in western NY, I decided to ”unwinterize“ the ebike and take it out for a ride later this afternoon for its first spring voyage. Got the brake discs wiped down with alcohol, tires inflated to 40 psi, dust from the garage cleaned off, chain lubed, and charging up the battery and my extra tail light.
Here is my last battery charge check of the off-season, which still shows a blue charge.

So after almost 5 months of storage in its protective bag, kept at room temperature (we’re usually around 70), the battery never dropped below 80% charge (impressive, as that’s about where it was at when I stored it).
