Yes, you have a two-year warranty on your battery.

An electric drive bike requires less maintenance compared to one with an internal combustion engine, because it contains fewer moving parts and there are no oil or filters used. Tyres and brakes will exhibit normal wear and tear. Your Brekr can be serviced by Brekr service partners present at a location convenient to you. Prices and conditions will be made available towards the end of 2019.

You can place two batteries in the Brekr. One battery ensures a range of 50 km under normal conditions and 80 km under favorable conditions. A battery has a capacity of 1.9 kWh.

The range is influenced by weather conditions, outside temperature, driving style, speed, rider weight, landscape, tire pressure and quality of the battery.

The battery is of high quality and the most expensive part of your Brekr model B. Batteries generally do not like frost and it is advisable to keep your battery inside if you do not ride your Brekr during periods of frost. If you do not use the battery for an extended period of time it needs to be charged at least once every two months.

The weight of the battery is approximately 10 kg. The battery is narrow so that you can easily carry it.

The frame is made of aluminum. This means it cannot rust and the Brekr is lighter than bikes with other types of frames.
