With more than one battery you’re able to recharge your bike in seconds.
Its a huge advantage for the customer.
I would say that eventually all micromobility vehicles will have removable/swappable batteries.

Our bikes are designed intentionally for ease of use and maximum functionality.
The choice of a semi-integrated battery was rooted in that design philosophy.
One of the biggest factors in battery health is protecting your battery against the weather.

Storing your battery/bike in the shade in hot weather is a good idea.
Whatever you choose, an ebike is a long-term investment.
