I have just bought a used Elife 21 gear La Grande electric bike.

I am very happy with it and am hoping to get a lot of use out of it but when I took the battery off to charge it I noticed that the battery carrier is damaged.

The bike is almost new and has hardly been used so I think maybe the previous owner let it fall over,

I have trawled the Internet to try and find a replacement but cant find one anywhere.

I have tried Aliexpress but the only seller I found does not sell the carrier on its own, they only sell it as part of the battery unit.

If anyone has any ideas I would be grateful.

May I suggest a few clear photos first?
I tend to repair stuff rather than replace it, as I myself weld Stainless and most other steels.
But I also use alcohol for deep cleaning and then (wearing rubber surgeons gloves) I use 2 component glues to repair and strengthen other damage in plastic, glass and aluminium.
If it has to look good, then I clean the whole unit again with alcohol and then use DIY store paint sprays!
Nothing I do is rocket science!
Also, being a pensioner, I am happy that such repairs:-
a) Keep me busy and b) are very cheap to do in relation to the cost of new parts!
But each to his own ideas!
regards

Hello Andy
Can you actually change the battery carrier which is faulty as well as not having any keys??
At the moment I am securing the battery with tape which is not ideal. I attach a poor picture of the part that needs replacing if it is of any use to you
Kindest regards
