I'm looking for a spare battery but struggling to find any in the UK under £800.

Bike-discount.de and a couple of other German sites have them and cost around £620 but they won't post to the UK. Any idea where best to look?

Last time i had a look that was just the case, 800 quid UK is about the lowest, not many hold stock and pretty much order via bosch, so unless you find somewhere that has a discount code or the likes that's the price.

Where have you looked? Winstanleys used to be the best for the 500 frame battery, maybe they are similarly well priced on the 625.

Thanks for the advice. Ended up ordering from r2-bike.com as it seems to be the only one delivering to UK (hopefully!). £703 delivered.

The battery for an e-bike is £700???! How old is the one you're replacing?

Thanks but I'd prefer to pay £50 extra to get one new.

I've just got the bike but wanted a spare battery to swap over for big days, hopefully won't be paying for an uplift bus again!

What does the battery weigh? (E-bike curious....)

A friend does epic road bike rides on an e-bike and sometimes takes the charger and gives his a hour long boost whilst in a cafe.....

Same as a camelbak full of water - that's pretty light!
