    I tried a good few ebikes before choosing the 905sel Wisper. for my style and fitness there wasn't anything better. Its powerful and well made.

    I have been thinking about the purchase of an electric bike since the summer. The choice is far bigger than I had anticipated and frankly I am confused. Would you of the kind soles on this web site be able to offer some advice? I live most of the time in Brighton and would be doing most of...
