I picked up this beauty of a like-new bike in KUIU Vias camo from an older gentleman who only rode it around town with his wife, who also had a bike just like it in a small size. I would have bought it for my girlfriend too, but she had already sold it to her sister. The very first thing I did is what I always do with these bikes: I outfitted it with the ultimate in flat prevention provided by $300 worth of Tannus Armor tire inserts, heavy duty aftermarket tubes, and high quality tube sealant.
This Ranger is in a 19 frame size, which to me fits like a medium/large and works well with riders ranging from about 5'6" tall to 6'1". It only had 74 miles on it when I bought it. The original owner obviously didn't ride it much more that I have, and this winter, despite being stored inside my home, the battery failed on me and would not take a charge. It surely had not been used/cycled like one likes to be, but I had already done my research for the best battery replacement option and I sent it to Hi-C Battery in Denver, Colorado for a rebuild. They are the leader in the industry for rebuilding e-bike batteries. Here in their words is what I got for my $624 battery rebuild investment:
We rebuild your QuietKat Ranger Q7 battery better than new. All the old cells are removed and new cells welded in. We use factory fresh name brand cells from Samsung and LG Chem. Here are the specs:
48v 13ah (Extended Range)
615wh
Samsung or LG 3200mah cells
Reuse case and BMS
>800 cycles
1 year warranty
As soon as I installed the battery and took it for a test ride, I immediately noticed how much more power the bike had compared to the factory stock battery. A Hi-C rebuild is definitely the answer! Everything works perfectly on this bike and it now has exactly just 101 miles. With the tires having the flat prevention prep and the newly rebuilt to better-than-new battery, this bike is unquestionably better than a factory new bike.
I am asking $2950 obo for the bike and I can possibly bring it to west Texas with me at the end of April.
