Some have stated that even if the battery does wear out in only three to six months, they will have saved up enough money by then to buy an upgraded battery.
SLA remains the battery chemistry with the cheapest purchase price, and as a result…they are still frequently chosen by consumers who are new to E-bikes. So…what’s the problem with SLA? They are bulky and heavy for the amount of Watt-Hours (WH) that they supply, but the worst part…is how fast SLA wears out. The voltage is still around 24V, so this is still no hot rod.
The previous price was $449, and the new price with a lithium pack is $749, a difference of $300. The reason that this is news is because…this “mild assist” E-bike has upgraded their battery from Sealed Lead Acid (SLA) to lithium. Without the electrical kit, this bike is typical for the $99 bicycles found in the “big box” stores that most shoppers are familiar with when they need to buy laundry detergent and new socks for the kids. Just to be clear, they didn’t suddenly improve the quality of an “entry level” E-bike…the bicycle part of this model is still the same as it was before (steel frame, no disc brakes, etc). The eZip Trailz has been a perennial survivor at the bottom of the lists of factory E-bike models for sale to the public for years, due to their low price.
