COMPATIBILITY

WILL IT FIT MY BIKE?

Our conversions fit the vast majority of aluminium and steel-framed push bikes — road, hybrid, commuter, touring and hardtail MTB frames. Brands like Giant, Trek, Specialized, Cube, Ridgeback and Decathlon models convert perfectly.

HUB-MOTOR KITS

Fit most bikes with standard 135mm rear drop-outs and 26"–29" wheels. Ideal for hybrids and commuters.

MID-DRIVE KITS

Fit 68–73mm (BSA) or 100mm bottom brackets. Best for road, gravel and mountain frames with derailleur gears.

BATTERIES

48V 13Ah (624Wh) Hailong downtube packs fitted as standard; 17.5Ah (840Wh) Samsung-cell upgrade available.

NOT SURE?

Email make, model and photos to hello@lifty.co — our €49 suitability check confirms fitment, and it's fully discounted from your final installed conversion.

FAQ

CONVERSION QUESTIONS

How long does installation take?

Installation typically takes up to 3 business days, depending on kit type and workshop schedule. We confirm your exact collection time when you book.

Can I bring any brand of bike?

Almost any. Aluminium or steel frames with standard drop-outs and bottom brackets convert cleanly. We check carbon frames, internal gear hubs and belt drives individually before accepting a booking, as some require alternative mounting solutions. A €49 suitability check confirms exact fitment before we begin.

What range will I get with the battery package?

The 48V 13Ah (624Wh) pack delivers approximately 50–70 km of assisted riding on flat Dublin terrain, depending on assistance level, rider weight and conditions. The 17.5Ah (840Wh) upgrade extends this to roughly 70–100 km.

Does the conversion affect my brakes or gears?

Installation includes a full brake inspection and adjustment at no extra cost. Mid-drive kits drive through your existing gears, so shifting is untouched. We recommend hydraulic or quality mechanical disc brakes for 750W builds and will advise during the €49 suitability check.

What warranty do I get?

Every installation carries a 6-month Lifty Labs workmanship guarantee covering fitting, wiring and configuration. Kit components carry the manufacturer warranty. Post-installation servicing and diagnostics are available at our Capel Street workshop year-round.
