Hi,
My name is Barry from Cheshire, just purchased a 2010 Pawacycle Milan 2 from a close friend who has only used it about 10 times. Absolutely thrilled with it. Does anyone have any tips such as increasing battery power and distance, maintenance etc?

ebike battery

hello Barry, I dont know your bike, but i have an alpine sport from electricbikeworld , it is 37 volts, 250 watts, 17Ah; i can get about 70 miles out of it, doing a lot of peddaling; It is best to recharge when battery is spent. 5 hour recharge. Keep it charged up in winter cold. Best of fun!

Hi Barry, welcome to the forum. Your Milan uses SLA (lead-acid) batteries, heavy but with low replacement costs. It's a moderate power 200 watt bike and to increase the power you'd need to replace the brushless motor controller unit which is the box that sits below the battery. I don't know of anyone doing this on that model, but you could ask in the main forum.
