Flecc Flecc.... a public question.... are you leaving this forum? You mentioned that you might. I'm concerned......

Hi All How does this sound? A sleek looking, aluminium framed, mountain bike style pedelec with throttle override. 36V, 10AH phylion battery in aluminium, lockable case. Front suspension. Lighter than a Wisper (estimated 21kg total). 6 gears with Shimano Tourney derailleur. 250W Bafang...

The Wisper battery charger gets quite hot when in use, I've noticed. It gets hot top and bottom and makes a slight smell. My old 905e charger did this too. David Miall did mention to me something about having a fan-cooled charger for the bike at some point in the future, so presumably heat...

I have found a supplier of the Wisper 36V 250W motor. They can supply the exact model used in the 905SE and 905E for £77 delivered, airmail delivery. That's from China and I think it's very good considering that it includes shipping. If anyone wants the details, just let me know. I'd like to...

I'm not sure if it's correct to post this as a new thread, given the existing 905SE wiring fault one which I started. If not, no doubt it will be moved. Several 905SE users have commented on the handlebar buttons on the bike, especially the two on the left. It's impossible to know by looking...

Hi everyone As you may have seen, I have posted several messages recently concerning the German Wisper 905SE which I bought last week. It is one imported by Frank (Aldby) and sold to the person I bought it from. In another thread, I mentioned that I wasn't happy about the jerkiness of the...

Does anyone have a spare/redundant pedelec sensor disc... the round thing with the little magnets in it? One that they want to sell? Or know definitely where I can get one? I need one for a project but can't seem to find one.....

Hi David I don't know if you've been reading the forum postings recently on the 905SE? As you will perhaps recall, I had an early 905e. I'm pleased to see on the 905SE that many of the points I mentioned to you (which no doubt you'd discovered yourself) have been addressed. I bought a...

I thought I would let everyone know about a superb courier who delivered my German Wisper 905se today. I bought it used on eBay and it's one of Aldby's bikes from last Xmas with about 2 miles use. In fact it looks brand-new. I could not face the drive to St Albans from near Hull, 398 miles...

Does anyone know what kind of motor and controller the Wisper 905SE uses?

I just cancelled my order for a diamond frame Agattu. After repeated requests for a return phone call by phone, e-mail and answering service, and being told that "Tim isn't at his desk right now", 50Cycles told me that delivery will be in March, not "mid-January" as originally suggested. I've...

I wondered if someone (like Flecc again, if he's not having a nap....:) ) could explain to me in fairly simple terms just what a 'Hall Effect' motor is and how it differs from a brushed electric motor? I've seen the term a lot, obviously, but have no idea what it means..........

I'd like to build an electrically assisted tandem. I've been reading up the postings on the forum re kits of one sort or another. Does anyone have specific experience of building a tandem? I'd like if possible to keep the kit weight down and use a lithium battery for the same reason. I'd also...

I was wondering....a friend of a friend mentioned that he had recently become, to use his words not mine "a pedelec nerd" because he spends hours on this forum reading all about electric bikes. When I mentioned that I did the same but wouldn't describe myself (or others) as "nerds", he mentioned...

I realise this is a pedelec forum but.... is e-scooter considered blasphemous here? If not.... does anyone know anything about Baroni electric scooters? Baroni EV | Electric Scooters My interest in pedelecs does encompass things like scooters and electric cars etc....... I wondered if...

I've been thinking of buying a bike 50Cycles. I've e-mailed them several times and received no response and, when I phoned today, the phone was engaged from 09:00am until 5pm. I simply could not get through. I seem to remember comments on this forum about 50Cycles not being very responsive or...

Hi Flecc. I've read with interest your contributions to this forum. I've posted a few myself re my old Wisper 905e and other things. I'm considering buying a Kalkhoff Agattu with a crossbar (for a child seat). I read your review of the bike and it sounds very much like what I want ...ie no...

I've had several electric bikes of various types and they all seem to have one thing in common. They all appear to me to cost a heck of a lot of money for what they actually are. They're nearly all made in China, where labour is cheap, environmental restrictions are nil, raw materials are cheap...
