BATTERY
HIKO bikes come standard with a 13Ah Samsung Li-Ion Battery with a built in Battery Management
system (BMS). The BMS is important component as it allows the charger to charge the Samsung Cells
evenly which will maximise the life expectancy and storage power of the battery.
HIKO bikes can be upgraded with either a 15.4Ah Samsung BMS equipped, or 17Ah Panasonic BMS
equipped batteries. Your standard charger for the 13Ah battery can charge the two larger batteries.
Contact your dealer to purchase a larger battery.
