E-Bike Updates Guide
To keep your e-bike up to date and performing at its best, it’s important to do regular firmware updates. Some suppliers allow you to do this via their app, and some require specialist software to update, which can be done at an authorised dealer. Firmware updates can help improve battery life, add features and fix bugs. Our Tredz store are authorised dealers for each e-bike manufacture we supply.
