    Not a bike its a Scooter!!

    The problem with those is going to be getting parts when they go wrong, which they will. Also I would take the 40 mile range with a pinch of salt, similar scooters we have sold in the past would just about do 25 maybe 30 miles if you're really lucky (and weigh next to nothing). That's when the...

    Brompton Sparticle with latest Suzhou Bafang motor (8-Fun)

    Couldn't agree more! I do feel that it is not really appropriate to continue this discussion in public now, but will attempt to resolve this situation directly with the customer.

    Andrew - I've checked the details of your case and I cannot find any errors in my post.

    Brompton Sparticle with latest Suzhou Bafang motor (8-Fun)

    In our defence... Firstly, I would like to point out that (Andy) "Andyofthesouth" had a different motor in his earlier version of the kit. His kit was initally fitted by us and unfortunately despite a proper fitment it turned out that his front forks were too weak to deal with the torq and...

    Do you fancy working for Wisper?

    I agree electric / electronic skills are thin on the ground in most cycle shops. We have learned a lot, mainly by trial and error. Our shops are pretty good at sorting out the majority of electrical gremlins. Batteries are the biggest variable factor in the business. If we are not sure about a...

    Advice please...

    Just a thought, the powacycle salisbury is a truely superb machine for the money. It has a third less power than the wisper but it does do its job well, and the Salisbury is much under-rated for its low weight and very low motor drag. Give it (and other contenders) a spin at one of the shops.

    odd thing with my 905SE

    Please note that that Eddieo is having his wheel rebuilt by a local specialist firm that we use. The result will be a considerably strengthened wheel. Wisper have been brilliant to us and our customers - they genuinely want everyone to be absolutely delighted with what are for the most part...

    Will a pedelec work for me?

    Wisper would suit you Hi I think the Wisper would suit you best. We stock the Ezees as well as the Wispers (best selection of these is in our Oxford shop actually). I would urge you to go along and take a nice long trial on the Wispers and Ezees. The Ezee feels solidly built but the Wisper...

    Problem with Mike Folder

    I suspect that the reset trip is just over-sensitive. Especially if this is happening under a heavy load eg. hill climbing. I would suggest opening up the trip mechanism and bypassing it with a fuse in its place. 25A fuse would probably be suitable. We can check it out / sort this for you if...

    PowaCycle Lynx Lightweight Folding Bike - battery

    These batteries are a bit flakey we've had quite a few problems with them for one reason or another, and have therefore decided to stop selling the Lynx and Puma. Jamie, TETS.BIZ

    Powacycle launches Infineum

    I've been to the launch and it is indeed a 36v version of the Tongxin motor. It is friction drive, a very nice design indeed. We're taking preorders now at £995 (a nice incentive!) and we should have a demo/sample which we will rotate around the shops as required. Jamie - TETS.Biz
