Both bikes are now gone. Not sure how to update the first post...

The new 905 looks nice! Do you still have bottom brackets for these old models? I asked a while back but they were out of stock as the newer models use a sealed one.

That didn't take long! pm'd

I'm clearing out the garage and have a couple of old ebikes: spares or repairs, free to a good home. Collect from Poole in Dorset. A Whisper 905SE Sport (circa 2009) Its not in great shape as its been left sitting outdoors under cover. I hit a patch of ice a couple of winters back and came off...

Thanks for that Jerry. Keyde setup looks perfect but is a bit pricey for the whole shooting match. Might have to consider alternatives. Stealth would be nice, but isn't essential. Discreet to look at if nothing else. I think i'll mull it over for a while.

Good to know. Thanks. I'll just have to put in more effort up hill!

I'm aiming for road legal (25kph is the assist limit isn't it?), doesn't break spokes too often and I can buy common spares off the shelf from a local bike shop. From looking around for wheels and spokes a while back, 36 spoke rims seemed more abundant. Perhaps that was a coincidence, driven by...

Rough calc, aiming for 25kph gives me 208 RPM for 26" Rim with 1.75" tyre (~2m circumference). Does that sound about right?

Nothing wrong with 32 holes, just wanted to stick with 36 as that seems more common. Hadn't got as far as working out what RPM motor I would need.

I saw the classified and would have taken your arm off if it had 36 spoke holes.

Nice - Thanks! Keyde looks perfect.

Hi All, Been a while since I posted here... 2009 Wisper is still running (a now much reduced commute) on the original battery and the Cyclamatic will be up for sale as spares and repairs soon (never did find a replacement controller). Anyway, I am thinking about buying a hybrid and converting...

Hi David, thanks for the update. Have sent an email.

Thanks for that. Wow - spares are a bit more pricey than they used to be. Might be time to look at buying spoke blanks and a different rim...

Hi All, Been a while since I posted here. Anyway, my Wisper is out of commission (cracked rim and snapped spokes) and the Cyclamatic has been dead for a while, but that hasn't really been a problem while the Wisper was working. So while dismantling the Wisper I thought I would have a look...
