Lookalike bike

It says it's 20" wheels, so either that's a mistake or it's ideal for youngsters!

I think it's a mistake though, judging by the quoted frame size, probably 26" wheels.

Details say's it's got a 36V 12Ah lead-acid battery - interesting.
That's a lot bigger than the 8AH battery that came in my bike but looking at the picture the case is no bigger, in fact it looks slightly smaller.
When I tried upgrading my 8AH batteries I could not find any batteries that would fit my case or even fit in the battery space on the bike – too bloody big.
So where are these small sized 12AH batteries coming from?
Not from the UK.
Is this another attempt by the Chinese manufactures to set a specification/standard - one which the rest of the world will totally ignore (as usual)

I think the 12 Ah is more likely to be another dodgy number like that 20" wheel one. I wouldn't even trust to it being a 21" frame as they say.

If it is lead acid it's a very high price, since SLA bikes like this were being sold off to clear for under £500 a while ago.
