I bought mine barely a year ago. I used it regularly for about 6 months, but not in the winter. The battery will no longer take a charge of any kind. I wrote boosted about this issue and they replied that they can’t do anything for me. They said it “might” be a battery issue and offered to sell me a new battery for $500.

Boosted needs to come out with either a replacement fender or some sort of increased coverage clip-on rain fender. If it’s a li
