All right, so let's answer the question, can electric bike batteries be repaired? The answer is yes. I think, like any technology out there, they can always be repaired. I've seen one or two companies here in California that will take e-bike batteries and fix them. Replace the cells on the inside.

Now, it's not something we at sixthreezero do here for our e-bike batteries. We would just issue a replacement. Whether you purchase it or if it's warranty, we would send you one. But it is something that could be repaired. I think it's a lot like a cell phone. When a battery dies in a cell phone, you're generally not going to repair the battery. You're just going to replace the battery. And so I think nine out of 10 times for an e-bike battery the best option is going to be just to replace that battery. When you look at the time and labor and money involved to actually try to fix the electric bike battery, I think you're always going to be better off just buying a brand new one or getting a replacement. But like anything else from technology, it's possible to be replaced and fixed.

Now, if you're an at-home tinkerer and you think this is something you want to take on, by all means. You'd have to find some replacement cells online. Depending on the battery you're using or maybe the particular manufacturer of either the battery or the bike keeps cells on hand that you could replace, or it could be a bad wire. Again, you'd have to diagnose the actual issue before you move into the repair, which I think makes repairing an e-bike battery a little bit tricky, and, again, which is why I recommend just a full replacement. But to answer the question, can they be repaired? Yes. We don't do it at sixthreezero though. So if you have any other questions, comments, or thoughts on this topic, please put them below.
