If it is your battery you should demand that they return it even if it is not repairable by them. I would suggest that you volunteer to pay the return shipping to get the battery shell back. I believe you can find repair/rebuild battery shops that can replace the Lithium cells and other...
Not aware that PIM has gone under. Did you contact them directly? Second; the batteries are made up of cells so I am thinking that there are ways to rebuild them.
Good job diagnosing the problem. I try to always end my rides in 1st gear so as to be in 1st when I next ride. Also remember that the bike should be stationary when you start up the electronic system so that the speed and gear setting can be detected (Speed = 0 and Gear = X). I used to start...
Hey, I see what you mean. PIM says they are working on the website... could be dangerous! Anyway; please e-mail Ben at [email protected] he can get your e-Bike registered. Is this you first e-Bike?
PIM's come standard with mounting bosses for rear rack system. These two PIMs have the Topeak MTX Explorer MTX/RX rack and MTX trunk Bag. these were purchased from the PIM website. Great service and excellent products.
It is likely that your PIM e-Bike battery has not been used for three or more months now that we are in the middle of Winter 2018 - 2019. So, just a reminder that checking the SOC (State of Charge) would be appropriate. Best practice for long life of Lithium is to store the battery at less...
Do you have the original Polaris 264 Ah battery? Also; at the very first start up did you have the Appex in 1st gear and at a full stop? My Polaris Terrain used to be kinda "crazy" sometimes until I learned that you can not engage the system while in motion. It would turn on but I got very...
I finally got three days with pretty similar wind/temperature signatures so rode an Archer with standard tires from the same start point until the battery was exhausted. (battery SOC display showed no bars, just outline of battery) The first PDF contains elevation and speed information for the...
Have you performed a range test on a PIM battery? Post your details here. It will be most useful to others if you provide the battery size, ambient temperature, type of surface, speed elevation gain/loss. Also the age of the battery and weight of rider and e-Bike when you performed the test...
One interesting finding is that the 264 Wh battery weighs (on my digital fish weighing device) 10 pounds 8 ounces while both the 380 and 500 Wh batteries weighed in at 9 pounds 2 ounces. Looks like the 264 is now history as it is not on the website. The 380 Wh version is $499 and the 500 Wh is...
I totally hear you! i have ridden the 264, 380 and just plugged in the 500 Wh battery and will try a "range test" this week to see how much more distance I can get. Is your Rail to Trail paved or gravel?

If Dan can not fix it or replace it it is time to buy a new ride...
Wonderful weather, great location and plenty of people. We will host this event again next year. Talked with about 80 non-riders and provided 26 demo rides on the Apple Capital Trail. The burritos were fantastic... Big thanks to PIM (Power In Motion) and Full Circle Cycles of Wenatchee for...
We are thinking 10 AM to 2 PM... So; Saturday 12 May; 10 AM to 2 PM at the Pybus Public Market. There is an electric car charger on the utility building at the North end of the main market building, we will gather there.
We are looking at Saturday 12 May as the date for the 2018 e-Bike Burrito Ride. This is planned as a low key get together to have some fun, meet other e-bikers and be open to the public to answer their questions bout e-Bikes. No admission fee required. Pybus Public Market has not confirmed...
I talked with some others and we are going to plan a ride that will take place just after Apple Festival. It will be a very casual get together. If you know some other e-Bike riders please see if they would be interested in joining us.
