Lifty Labs technical upgrades

Lifty Labs Upgrade Centre

Lifty Labs provides model-specific electric scooter and e-bike upgrades from Lifty Electrics' Dublin workshop, including tyres, brakes, waterproofing, batteries, diagnostics, servicing and selected conversion work.

Every upgrade starts with compatibility and safety checks. Installation time, price and suitability vary by model, existing condition, selected components and parts availability.

Last reviewed: 12 July 2026

Compatibility first

Exact model, size, voltage, fitment and condition are checked before work.

Clear limitations

Range, waterproofing and performance outcomes depend on real-world conditions.

Dublin installation

Specialist installation takes place at the Capel Street workshop.

Workshop expertise

Lifty Labs services and upgrade options

Solid and anti-puncture tyres

Model-specific solid-tyre and puncture-reduction options. Solid tyres can change comfort, grip and wheel stress and are not suitable for every scooter.

PMT and Pirelli tyres

Premium tyre suitability and installation where the exact size, rim and intended use are compatible.

Hydraulic and Magura brakes

Hydraulic brake servicing and selected upgrade work, including Magura MT5e options where mounting, sensors and system compatibility allow.

Waterproofing and rain resistance

Inspection and model-specific sealing improvements with honest IP-rating and usage limitations. No treatment makes every vehicle fully waterproof.

Battery replacement and upgrades

Battery assessment, safe replacement and selected capacity or range upgrades after voltage, controller, enclosure, BMS and charging checks.

Diagnostics and electrical work

Controller, display, motor, charging and wiring diagnostics before replacement or upgrade decisions.

Suspension and restoration

Condition-led suspension work, replacement components, restoration and customisation where safe parts are available.

Annual and mini servicing

Inspection and servicing appropriate to use, mileage, wear, model and current condition.

E-bike conversion kits

Assessment of suitable conventional bicycles for eligible electric conversion components. Frame, brakes, wheel, legal rating and intended use must be checked.

Helpful answers

Lifty Labs upgrade FAQs

Can every electric scooter use solid tyres?

No. Suitability depends on the wheel, rim, tyre size, model year, suspension and intended riding conditions. Lifty must confirm compatibility.

Can waterproofing make my scooter fully waterproof?

No. Waterproofing can improve resistance on suitable models, but it does not remove all water-ingress risk or override manufacturer limitations.

Can Lifty upgrade an electric scooter battery?

Some models may support safe replacement or capacity upgrades, but voltage, BMS, enclosure, controller, charger and wiring compatibility must be assessed first.

How long does an upgrade take?

Installation time varies by model, condition, parts and complexity. Contact Lifty for a model-specific estimate before travelling.
