FAQs

Q1: Is the Buffalo Alpha Plus legal to ride on UK roads?
Yes — the 250 W motor and capped assistance at 25 kph (15.5 mph) fully comply with UK EAPC rules, meaning it can be ridden just like a manual bicycle—no tax, insurance, or registration needed.

Q2: How far can I go on a single charge?
Up to 70 km under ideal conditions. Actual range varies with terrain, rider weight, and pedal assist usage.

Q3: How long does charging take?
Approximately 6 hours with the included 2 A charger.

Q4: Do I need to pedal to use the motor?
Yes — pedal assist activates only when pedaling, fully aligning with EAPC legal requirements.

Q5: What warranty coverage does it have?
Coverage typically includes 2 years for the frame and 1 year for parts/electrical systems depending on the retailer.

Q6: Can it handle heavy loads or tall riders?
Yes — supports up to 150 kg payload, and suits riders up to about 6’3″ (depending on configuration)

UK Road‑Legal Disclaimer

The Buffalo Alpha Plus 250 W Mountain eBike is designed to fully comply with UK Electrically Assisted Pedal Cycle (EAPC) regulations — with a motor not exceeding 250 W and assistance capped at 25 kph (15.5 mph). This makes it legal for use on UK public roads without need for tax, insurance, or registration. If the bike is ever modified to exceed these limits (e.g., higher motor power or speed), it will no longer be EAPC‑compliant and may become illegal for road use — such modifications also nullify your warranty.
