I’ve really enjoyed my Super 73. Good range, speed and really fun to ride. Recently I turned it on and the battery started smoking and from all appearances was about to explode. Thankfully it didn’t. And although it took awhile to get the line of communications straight, they are replacing the entire bike and shipping should only take a week or so.

I really wonder about the whole battery thing and if it's somehow deterministic. Has there been any mechanical shock, deep discharge or unusual temperature exposure? FWIW, there are special battery bags.
