I went to Halfords this afternoon and had a shot of the voodoo hardtail Bizango. Had lots of fun bombing around the car park outside. Does anyone know what wattage the motor is? It didn't feel like it had a huge amount of power? Is it possible to remove the 17mph limit? Im trying to decide...

This is an advert for 1 alien e bike in parts. Battery is knackered looking for offers.

Thanks D8veh, can I just put a bulb across a cell without disconnecting all the metal tabs that link the cells in series? I have just read another thread on a similer topic and you suggested using a 5v phone charger to bring up the weaker cells. Should I connect positive to positive with the...

I have one bought it for £200 second hand. The motor is a gem fast and efficient. My battery is good for 2 miles so ready for a change. The bike components and frame are very cheap and surprisingly poor for a £1100 bike. I would value the bike itself at £150. That being said it is fairly...

I am in the process of transfering parts of my auora alien bike onto my old jump bike. The battery is totally shot, it will give about 2 miles in assit, but it still puts a smile on my face with the amount of power it has. So im looking at a new battery or try to recondition the old one if...

Hi I am new to pedelecs, I just bought a second hand alien auroa for £210. I thought the battery was ok but I took it for a test ride last night and managed about 1 mile on high power. I think the bike has been sitting for a while and the battery is prob older than it should be. So my...
