    I m jut wondering if i can replace the Energypack 400 by an Energypack 500, honestly i think it is unlikely because the form factor could be different. But, but, may be 400 is simply the 500 wtth less cells, allowing for a slightly lighter and cheaper bicycle. If anyone know, thanks in advance.
