Need a new battery, the prices vary quite a lot so I wondered if the cheapest is that for a reason or are they all as good as each other?

Thanks

You just looking for a standard road battery or do you want something more bling?
I've got a standard yuasa on mine and its been faultless.

If you don't mind spending a bit more money I highly recommend these:

Got one on my NC, it's never let me down and is really powerful. Cranks much harder than my old one, and works after weeks of not using it even with an alarm.

£80 for a battery, I'd expect it to power my playstation for that too! 8-)

I just want a good value and reliable road battery.
