Sold Out
The Shimano STEPS BT-E8016 is a high-capacity 630Wh down tube battery engineered for serious e-mountain biking. With a 36V / 17.5Ah lithium-ion cell, it delivers the extended range needed for all-day trail riding, bikepacking, and demanding backcountry tours — while retaining Shimano's characteristically low-profile, impact-resistant design.
Highlights
- 630Wh capacity (36V / 17.5Ah) — Shimano STEPS' largest external down tube battery
- Low-profile, impact and vibration-resistant construction purpose-built for e-MTB
- Waterproof rating for all-weather trail confidence
- Charges on or off the bike via EC-E8004 charger (50% in 2.5 hrs, full in 6 hrs)
- Retains approximately 60% capacity after 1,000 charge cycles
- Integrated LED charge indicator, ON/OFF switch, and error signal
- Quick-release key-lock mechanism for secure, tool-free removal
- Approx. 3,500g
Extended Range, Built for the Trail
At 630Wh, the BT-E8016 is designed to keep you riding further without compromise. The low-profile casing keeps weight centred and low on the frame, preserving handling balance on technical terrain. Its impact and vibration-resistant housing is rated for the punishment of off-road riding, so you can concentrate on the trail rather than the battery.
Intelligent Charging
Used with the EC-E8004 fast charger, the BT-E8016 reaches 50% in just 2.5 hours and 80% in 3 hours — handy for a lunchtime top-up on long adventures. A full charge completes in approximately 6 hours. The battery can be charged both while mounted on the bike or removed for convenience. Compatible chargers include the EC-E6002 and EC-E8004.
Compatibility & Fit
The BT-E8016 is designed for Shimano STEPS E8000 and E6100 e-MTB drive systems. It mounts to the frame's down tube using the BM-E8016 battery holder, which must be purchased separately — this battery is supplied without a mount. It is not compatible with the older BM-E8010 holder or the EC-E6000 charger. Confirm frame compatibility with your bike manufacturer before ordering.
