Rider 2 & urban batteries

The battery on my rider 2 died whilst I was trying to get a replacement screen for it, and it just sat in the drawer.

I can see numerous adverts for urban batteries but none for the rider 2. Are they compatible?

any help would be gratefully received.

HI

 

I would expect so  the case and internals are virtually identical   the new battery is slightly higher capacity

Thanks, took the plunge hoping it would fit and ordered one on Friday, Fitted today and everything is working fine again.

Great

 

It is an easy replacement provided you have the righ tools.

 

The batteries last better if you don't allow them to go flat.  I use mine every day  mostly on the power dock but I sometimes use it on another bike with a passive dock and still get a good two hours full  time screen and voice directions use
