    Hi @Garrymol51, welcome to our community 😊 I'm afraid I don't know much about such batteries but I can move this discussion over to our travel category where such things are sometimes discussed such as mobility scooter batteries!

    Can you repack battery? In the general case, replacement is rather possible, but you need to know the complete technical data of the motor-wheel, controllers. Of course, there should be skills in electrical work, including welding 18650, and programming.

    In theory - yes it should be a simple replacement job - but does the replacement battery have identical connectors on it - and is it exactly the same size ?

    If not - the battery mounting may need modifying to fit the battery safely.
