Could anyone advise whether it is possible to have two throttles on the same set of bars please? My bars are of the 'butterfly' variety, and I often need to position my hands on the upper section (for comfort), but when I am doing so, I cant operate the throttle which sits on the bottom of...

i've the impression that Wisper bikes are at (or near to) the 'top of the range' bike. Something to aspire to, but not very cheap.. Surfing this morning i came across this: NEW 26" ELECTRIC MOUNTAIN BIKE BICYCLE LI-ION BLACK M7 on eBay (end time 08-Apr-11 12:28:22 BST) It looks almost...

my bike has a rohloff and an alien (bafang) front wheel drive self build kit. Excellent as the set up is, i feel that there may be some benefit to be had from a new frame which was dedicated and designed as an ebike (which mine is not). i've noticed that wisper (and maybe other...

the power supply cable to my 250w bafang is a bit damaged. Has anyone here renewed one, and is it a job within the competence of yer average joe please?

I'm told there are gismos that prevent the front wheel twisting out of the forks under stress (it happened to me today - bafang motor). Anyone know what they are named and where they may be available please?

I've read around the forum a bit to try and discover if anyone uses towbar bike carriers that can also pull a trailer simultaneous. Can't find any reference to such an item, so, is it correct to assume that the ones that are available would be unsuited to heavy battery bikes? I'd appreciate...

I have recently replaced my battery. What I've noticed is that the charge up time on this new one seems to take much longer than I remember the old one taking. Today, following an 18 mile run, it was plugged in for a charge at 3.30 pm. I've just checked it, and the red charging status...

My Alien 36v 10ah battery has become tired after about 16 months of reasonably consistent use - ie regular (four or five days per week) trips of about 18 miles. I've got a replacement (Alien again), but I wonder if there is anything that could be done with the old one to give it a new lease of...

I've posted this on 'frequently asked questions', which may not have been the best place for a general question. I hope it is OK to put it here instead? My Alien (a kit) is about 16 months old (36v 10ah lith ion 250w Suzibafang? motor). The battery has started to cut out when under high...

My Alien (a kit) is about 16 months old (36v 10ah lith ion 250w Suzibafang? motor). The battery has started to cut out when under high demand conditions, so I assume its a bit tired and needs replacing. I've contacted Alien, who are still offering replacement lith batteries (at a price!)...

i recently purchased an Alien 36v kit, which has been fitted and running for a couple of weeks. So far i'm pleased with it (i'll post an assessment after a bit more time). My method of charging accords with Alien advice, and involves sticking it on to charge after each journey, long or...

Hello. i'm a disabled cyclist who currently uses a modified Thorn Raven bike with a Rohloff hubgear. The modification is the addition of a 'hinged crank' on the right side, because my right knee will only bend to about 45 degrees. i cycle to keep fit (and for pleasure!), and i wish to keep...
