I have a problem with my E-bike, who do I speak to?

If you are having any issues with your new bike or scooter, you can contact us at contact@bayillagroup.com and we will be more than happy to help. Please provide as much information as possible for us to investigate your query.

Product

Can I use my E-bike without the motor?

Yes, electric bikes can be used as you would a regular push bike if you choose to leave the assistance off. You will of course feel a tad added weight of the battery and motor, but you will still be able to ride without the assistance.

How do I ride a E-bike or E-scooter?

Electric bikes are designed to be just like a normal push bike. When you
initially set off you need to ensure you have the motor power on and pedal as normal. Once you get moving you will feel the assistance and is best practice to make sure you are in the correct gear.

Can I remove my E-bike battery for charging?

On most e-bikes, you have the option to remove the battery for easier charging. Some E-bikes now have a feature integrated battery which are not removable, but this will be identifiable on the product page on our site, and they are designed to be charged in-situ. On most e-scooters, the battery is not removable. Please consult the manual of your e-scooter model to see if the battery can be removed.

Can I charge my battery overnight?

All E-bikes & E-scooters we supply will have an automatic cut off in the battery management system. This means that will stop charging when the battery is full.

Do I need to get my electric bike serviced?

We suggest that you take your bike for a generally service around 6-12 months depending on usage. If you are riding very frequently (most days of the week) then every 1000 miles is the perfect time for checkup. If you don’t ride to often then every 12 months is fine.

Can I use my E-Bike in the rain?

Most electric bikes are highly effective in all-weather including the rain & they are typically classed as water resistant. However, we do recommend not to use a heavy-duty pressure washer to clean the bike.

What size electric bike do I need?

Each model of e-bike will have it’s own size guide, check out the product page for more detailed information or feel free to contact us at contact@bayillagroup.com if you have any questions or concerns.

How much range will I get from my battery?

This is dependent on the capacity of the battery from the E bike of choice. Several factors do impact the range including the level of pedal assist used, ground incline and cyclists weight. Please check out the details on the product listing for more information.

How long does it take to charge my E-bike battery?

Typically a full charge should take about 4-6 hours for most E-bikes brands, however please check the details on the product page for more information on each specific model or feel free to contact us for clarification.
