Thanks for all the replies,i think it looks like new bike time,the battery will not even start charging now,all five lights are flashing if you press the button,there are new batteries on ebay for around £180,but i dont think they are compatible with my black 4 amp charger,google search is only coming up with batteries around £400 for a 24ah battery,i would be happy with a 15 ah battery or less as i dont go far.

It is lion, do cells usually die completely, do they ever just need a wire soldering back in place,I had the idea that the voltage gradually dropped rather than completely dying.

It's a raleigh dover bike, not sure how old as i bought it second hand, has been working fine but went for a ride yesterday and it dropped from full 3 lights, to 1 flashing light after about 1 mile,it was fully charged 5 lights on battery, now battery lights just flashing.

My 26v battery is only reading 18v,I'm guessing a detached wire somewhere, has anyone opened one up and repaired, or is it toast.

Yes I have received it,thanks I will arrange something.

Yes if you could leave me a number privately, I will arrange to come over.

Hi is this still available,

Hi does anybody know what motor is used on the old vikng ego folding bikes,also diensions of motor size,im looking at running 48v through one,has anbody done this before,or if size is similar replace with an ezee torq mk2 motor.

I like to reply that i used to own one of those old fashioned bikes years ago,wearing lycra is realy trying to cheat the wind,toe clips give extra assistance,carbon frames are cheating weight,extra gears,most cyclists try and make it easier to pedal,so are cheating in some form.

Still looking if anybody has an unloved bike taking up space.

Anything cheap and not to far from birmingham,broken electric or unwanted manual bike,for winter project.

Anybody near birmingham,up to 20 miles approx have an old folding bike,electric or none electric,working or needing major repairs,so long as its cheap for a winter project.

I think with drones the risk of bringing an aeroplane down,and venturing into goverment and other high priority sites,forced new legislation,bikes are just a very minor possible nuisance,and are very far down the list of problems that could need attention.

Hi this is for a work colleague,her partners carrera cuts out and is showing e 42 on display,he has been told it means a faulty cable and will cost £75,anybody know if this is correct,thanks paul.
