I have bought several bike computers but when it comes to fitting the sensor on the wheel spokes the allowed distance from the sensor to the magnet that fits on the frame is way to far apart, most of them say 3-5mm. Maybe I am not interpreting the instructions properly or there isn't one...

I have had my Elife for about 3 years now and its been excellent until today when my drive side pedal came away. On retrieving my pedal I attempted to screw it back into the crank but noticed the thread had disintegrated. I thought it would be a case of using a crank puller to take off the...

I have a frog battery 36v 8.5 ah. The battery has blown out of the casing, prior to this it was working perfectly and charged normally. It has about 5 what look like plastic bags which I assume contain the battery power. I have tried placing very heavy weights on the casing but cannot get the...

During the Lockdown I have been looking at what electric bikes are available. I have an Elife grande which I think is a Viking made for Ideal Home channel which is working fine. I have found one up for sale which is a good price but it has a fault. One of the leads that goes into the brake...

I have just bought a used Elife 21 gear La Grande electric bike. I am very happy with it and am hoping to get a lot of use out of it but when I took the battery off to charge it I noticed that the battery carrier is damaged. The bike is almost new and has hardly been used so I think maybe the...

I have 2 x 20" foldup electric bikes purchased from Tesco 4 years ago which have been brilliant, they are called the Shopper. 1 of the bikes fell over and is now not turning on properly, when it does turn on the minute I pedal the power goes off. When the bike fell over, it caused damage to...

I have owned 2 of these for the past 2 years, both have served me well and I have no complaints. Went out on one of them today and when switching to power, it kept going on and off. I limped home and looked at what the problem might be. Straight away I could see the sensor attched to the pedal...
