48V 17.5Ah Downtube E-Bike Battery – High-Capacity Lithium Pack for Electric Bicycles
This 48V 17.5Ah downtube lithium battery is built for riders who need solid range, stable performance and efficient power delivery for electric bikes and conversion kits. Built around 13 cells in series, it's the natural match for 500W–1000W hub motor conversions.
The downtube format places the battery along the bicycle's down tube, using a standard mounting bracket and key lock to keep weight low and centred for balanced handling. Ideal for urban commuting, trekking, MTB and long routes, this battery delivers steady power and extended range for a comfortable, reliable ride.

Why the 13S configuration matters for 48V systems
The 13S configuration means 13 cells connected in series, each contributing around 3.6–4.2V to the pack's total voltage. This delivers the 48V used by the majority of mid-power conversion kits, giving a good balance of torque, top speed and range compared to 36V packs.
BMS and cell protection
The battery integrates a 35A BMS, built with quality LG/Samsung cells, which monitors voltage, temperature and current per cell in real time, preventing overcharging, deep discharge and cell imbalance. The IP65-rated casing protects against light rain and road splashes in normal use.
What Type of Conversions It's Recommended For
500W–1000W Hub Motors
The 48V voltage and 35A BMS comfortably support mid-power hub motor controllers without strain.
Urban and Trekking Commuting
Solid range for daily commutes and longer trekking routes without sacrificing weight or handling.
DIY eBike Projects
A reliable, well-protected energy source for custom builds using brushless hub motor systems.
