Pedibal Bikes

On our bicycle the battery can be charged on or off the bike simply by plugging the output lead of the charger into the socket of the battery case and then the power output plug into the household source (socket)

First charge should be 8-10 hrs and Normal charge times will range from 2- 8 hrs depending on charge status. If you do not use the vehicle for long periods of time, charge the battery at least once a month, to avoid reducing its lifespan.

The battery range of our e-bikes depends on several factors, including terrain, weather conditions (such as wind), rider weight, and usage patterns (e.g., level of pedal assist or throttle use). Below is an estimate of the range for each of our models, tested on average London terrain with a 66kg rider, alongside the theoretical maximum range achievable in optimal conditions:

Navigata

Battery: LG 9.6Ah 36V

Range: 25 miles (average London terrain) – 41 miles (optimum conditions)

E-Cruiza

Option 1: LG 12.8Ah 48V

Range: 31 miles (average London terrain) – 51 miles (optimum conditions)

Option 2: LG 21Ah 48V

Range: 50 miles (average London terrain) – 84 miles (optimum conditions)

Maxima

Battery: LG 20Ah 48V

Range: 48 miles (average London terrain) – 80 miles (optimum conditions)

The batteries used in our e-bikes are high-quality LG Lithium-Ion units with an approximate lifespan of 500–600 charge cycles, ensuring reliable performance for years. Keep in mind that regular maintenance and proper charging practices can further optimize your battery’s longevity and performance.

Between 120 Kg and 180 Kg depend on model.

We recommend little bit of maintenance regularly keeping things clean and lubricated especially if you’re using your bike frequently, however most reputable bicycle retailers offer a maintenance/service package that can range anywhere between £39-£99. For basic maintenance we suggest:

Tightening and correct operation of both wheels, frame and front forks.

Check Tire pressure and tread conditions.

Check Gearshift lubrication.

Check Bell and reflectors / lamps conditions and function.

Check Braking system operation.

Are there any Laws that are relevant to owning an Electric Bicycle?

The UK law regarding electric bikes is slightly different to EU laws, you can check the full UK laws if you want some more information. If a bike meets the EAPC requirements, it’s classed as a normal pedal bike meaning you can ride it on cycle paths and anywhere else pedal bikes are allowed. Key points to consider:

if you’re 14 or over you don’t need a licence to ride electric bikes that meet certain requirements, and they don’t need to be registered, taxed or insuredthe bike must have pedals that can be used to propel itthe electric motor shouldn’t be able to propel the bike when it’s travelling more than 15.5mphthe motor shouldn’t have a maximum power output of more than 250 watts

Laws can and do change without prior warning. These are accurate at the time of writing and we shall endeavour to keep them up to date.

Yes, you can put an Navigata on a regular car rack, but you should be aware of the weight of the rack as well as the weight of the bikes. Navigata weigh 19kg which may mean that you can only put 1 or 2 eBikes on a rack designed to take 2 or 3 regular bikes.

The battery and LCD display are protected to the level IP65 (we class as splashproof) so ok to use in light wet weather is not designed to be used or stored for prolonged periods of time.

Yes, the battery is locked to the bike and you must use the key provided to remove it.

We supply 2 keys that are unique to your Samsung battery and recommend that you obtain a third copy and keep this in a safe place as we are unable to obtain copies at Pedibal for safety and security reasons. The bike can still be charged and operated without key.

Replacement batteries are available directly from Pedibal Bikes.
