700wh battery fits in all the frames if that’s what you mean?
Does mean buying a 700wh battery which aren’t cheap but I have a 500 & 700 battery and swap between depending on use. Shorter rides I use lighter battery.
Or try faster rolling tyres & lower power output to extend your range.

Do you notice much difference in the riding characteristics when you swap the batteries? My Levo has a 700 battery and I keep thinking I might like a lighter battery for shorter rides
