I recently got back into mountain biking, I had purchased a cheap Emtb (against everyone’s advice) and yes I had to upgrade within a few months. I ended up buying a Bulls E-Stream EVO 4 with the Brose S mag and 750 watt super core battery. The bike is a beast and the battery lasts for miles, the longest I have been on was 5 hours, 3600 vertical and 40 miles. I got back to the truck with the battery just clicking down to 2 bars. But..... I recently did a short but technical climb with only one bar down. I was not going to recharge it but I was heading out the next day on a pretty long climb and thought I should recharge it. When I checked it in a few hours the battery was completely dead, not one bar. I took the battery off and tried charging it that way, no luck. I dropped it off at the bike shop I bought it from, they threw it on their charger and said ’yeah it’s dead dude’. Now I have to wait until Bulls approves the battery replacement warranty. I am concerned the bike charger is bad and that this may have damaged the motor or it’s components. The bike is less then a month old, any advice for a new (old) rider on how to approach this. I am concerned that the Bulls bike may not have been a good choice but I am waiting to see how the warranty division responds..
