#3 How long does it take to recharge the battery?
Rumble Motors' electric scooters use lithium-ion battery packs. These packs recharge very quickly compared to others on the market. It takes about 3-5 hours to recharge to 100% from flat. In fact, the battery will charge approx. 80% in about 1.5 hours. The last 20% is set on a slower charging rate.
#4 How should I look after my battery?
Generally, as long as you don't leave your battery completely empty for long periods of time, and you charge the battery up after each ride, it should be sufficient.
#5 Should I completely drain the battery before charging?
On some cheaper bikes with different style cells, this is necessary. However Rumble bikes feature high tech batteries, so this is not required. It is in fact best to always charge up your batteries after each ride, no matter how short. Even if you have only travelled 10 miles, just charge it up.
#6 Why should I ride electric bikes?
Our electric bikes have proven to be useful to our customers in many different aspects. They can be used as a daily tool for commuting, saving fuel, cutting transport costs and time. Some people enjoy recreational rides where they go out traveling all day without the aggravation of steep hills. On the other side, we have hardcore mountain bikers using electric bikes to beat up lifts. Generally you can get a lot more done in a day and cover more ground on an electric scooter. With an eBike you get to do everything you're already doing, but faster and with more fun.
#7 Does it matter if the electronics get wet?
Generally, the electronic items on all of our electric bikes are sealed units from the motor, to battery, to head unit, where occasionally there are deep puddles. Your eBike is expected to be able to handle this without any issues. If possible, try not to completely submerge your eBike.
#8 Will the electric bike arrive assembled?
Your bike will arrive 95% assembled (with any accessories you have added to the order, fitted to the eBike) and will be delivered in a custom designed box. Someone needs to be available to sign for the parcel. The box is rather large. Our courier will help you carry it in, but they may not enter the property or carry up the stairs, for example. To fit the eBikes into our special boxes we have to turn the handlebars 90 degrees. This is easy to re-adjust once you have unpacked your bike.
#9 How often should I have my electric bike serviced?
All of the components are regular scooter components, so you can pick up spares (e.g inner tubes, tires, brake pads, etc.) from any good bike shop.

In general, it will cost $0.03 to $0.10 to charge an electric bike battery pack. This will depend on what your local electricity supplier charges.
