Some of you may be looking forward to sliding on wet leaves in autumn – but we still have a few tips on how to keep your e-bike and battery safe throughout the autumn. 🍂

Dirt and leaves can quickly build up on the battery and charging socket, so you should regularly check the following points:

• Clean the battery and contacts with a dry cloth.
• Dry the battery after riding and store it in a dry room.
• Allow the battery to dry completely before charging.

It also helps to check your e-bike and prepare for the shorter days ahead.

• Check the lights.
• Check the brakes and tyres.
• Wear appropriate clothing and reflectors for added safety.

With a little care and preparation, nothing will stand in the way of your next autumn ride. 🚴
