    Woosh I'm selling our Wooshes!

    If anyone is interested in a bargain Woosh we're selling our Big Bear and Santana CD-L . See the classified ads. We're in Bolton Lancs. They've been great bikes but we'd like something lighter.

    For Sale Woosh Bikes for sale.

    My wife and I are considering new lighter bikes and wish to sell our existing Woosh models. They have only been used on our holidays and are mechanically first class. There's a few marks from strapping them to the bike rack on our motorhome, but when on there they've always been protected with a...

    Advice re new bike with hub gears.

    Thanks for all the advice. I'm now considering my options and I've learned a bit as I always do on here.

    Advice re new bike with hub gears.

    Thanks Hattie (if it's you!) You may remember me rolling up with my motorhome when I needed a problem sorting on one of our bikes. If I do sell them I'll consider using your service. Maybe I've been unlucky but I've had occasions where the gears don't change properly and if I try to adjust...

    Advice re new bike with hub gears.

    My wife and I have respectively a Woosh Santana DL and a Woosh Big Bear. We've had them for three years and are very happy with them. We only use them over three trips of six weeks each in our motorhome. The batteries are topped up regularly, even when not being used and seem to be almost as...

    E Bike with hub gears.

    An acquaintance of mine wants to buy a couple of ebikes for himself and his wife. He told me that he was considering the G-Tech one but I tried to dissuade him as I don't think it has any gears and might well be useless on hills. I recommended the Woosh range (I have a couple of them) but it...

    Servicing Schedule

    Thanks for the detailed advice. I always feel a bit guilty asking a traditional bike dealer to service my bikes, having cut them out and bought mail order. I seem to recollect that you had an arrangement with some dealers who would, for a fee, assemble your bikes and check them over. Is this...

    Servicing Schedule

    My wife and I have a Woosh bike each, with which we're very pleased. We only use them on our motorhome holidays in Europe so they get less than average usage and wear. I charge the batteries every six weeks and keep the chain and sprocket wheel lubricated with the correct oil. They are now...

    Cycle Paths

    Seriously bad advice. I bought one of these and the first time I used it eight children came rushing out of their doors clutching enough money for a Mr Whippy with a chocolate flake. I crashed into one of them and his father is now suing me. You'll be hearing from my solicitor too!

    Cycle Paths

    No problem, I've got loads of them, and their optics! Currently using a Digilux compact on holiday.

    Cycle Paths

    I didn't get an electric horn with my BB! You'll be hearing from my solicitor and just be sure I'm going to divert via Southend when I dock in Dover and throw a large brick through your window. To get on topic though, my wife's holiday has been marred by a bloke who just stepped out to his left...

    Thoughts on these please

    I have a Big Bear LS and think it's brilliant and a superb price for such a machine with a 15 AH battery. As you surmise, the weight is only a problem when you need to lift it onto a high bike rack. I now have a rack that fits on a towbar, which is much lower, and can manage that lift easily. I...

    Yet another big bloke with a grand to spend...

    Perhaps I should have been more clear and said: I don't think that you can get an ebike with a 15 amp battery 'within your budget of £1000' from anyone else and it comes with mudguards and lights as well. I looked at Juicy but when you added a larger battery the price went way beyond the OP's...
