I have just purchased a one year old very tidy Cyclotricity Revolver from a e bay private seller and all is well but the battery ( a 14 KWH one) wont unlock to remove the battery ( which works ) One of the keys is mangled and the lock mechanism ( which appears to be built into the battery holder ) has no real reiistance when you turn the key It just has no traction and there isnt a clear sense of disengagement. The battery won't come off. I think it was forced at some stage. There was an elderly owner who has died and the son in law is selling it on.
The battery is the type as shown here

The bike was a good price and I;m hopeful that an inexpensive solution might exist,. Does anyone have any suggestions. Obviously I can just charge it on the bike but thats not so convenient and it would be appropropriate to keep an eye on the contacts under the battery from a maintenance perpective
Thank you
Andrew
