Cleaned them with washing up liquid as recommended and lightly rubbed them with some sandpaper. There was a very slight improvement, which has now disappeared, they do stop you , but the rear brake is 100 times better, bikes only done about 278 miles, its a Wisper 705 T I bought it along with...

I've ordered some from ebay...Thanks

Thanks for all the reply's, things been a bit hectic with lots of work being done in house. I am going to have a go at the brakes this weekend, will try Neal's solution first with the isopropanol when I find somewhere to buy it, are the pads easy to get out ?. Re the comments on the battery, I...

Thanks for all the advice, ill try the ones which don't need the pads removing first. If I need to remove the pads for cleaning, are they easy to get out, or should I get local bike shop to do it. They don't do anything with the motor / electrical stuff on these bikes but I take it most disc...

We bought a couple of Wisper 705t bikes about a year ago, both very happy with our purchase. Didn’t get a lot of use out of them before we stored them over winter. Not really used them a great deal this year as we moved house and work is on going with builders etc. I’ve done about 280 miles and...

Moved to technical section

We went out this morning and looked a VW T5 Campervan, and a VW Transporter, we could get both of the bikes in either, of the two the transporter seemed a better buy price wise, the beds and kitchen in the campervan were of no real use to us. It seems the Transporter is classed as a car, so...

That’s something I hadn’t considered, could cope with the dearer insurance, but the speed limit would be a problem,not that I’m a speed freak.but keeping to down at times would be a problem. Motor home is not a route I fancy, there expensive, and I’m not into the motor home lifestyle at all...

Thanks for all the advice, from what I have seen it looks like it has to be a transit size van, as I definitely don't want to remove the front wheels of both bikes every time we take them out, only problem I can see is a lot of used vans have big mileages, plus while the price always looks good...

Friends have had a Gtech men's bike a week now, they seem to be getting on with it fine, in fact I believe they are going to buy the lady's model March. I borrowed it today for a 10 mile round trip, nice bike, easy to ride, seems to have plenty of power, relaxed ride with no gear changes and...

Ok, I've passed thoughts on to them, I think that the may order a city bike on the 14 trial, and should it be ok they will get a City model. Not much chance of them looking on here, they don't use computers at all. Really surprised me when they asked about our A2B bikes.

How reliable are Gtech bikes, and would there be a problem with spares. We have a couple of A2B folders, which are ok. A couple of friends have shown an interest in e bikes, we loaned them ours for a week, but they did not like the small wheels at all. They tried a Batribike full size, weight...

Hopefully sorted now,shes not 100% on a Gtech now. Going next week to take her to look at A2B again, and buy two.

Just found some stuff on one in bike reviews on here, not as good as made out, have told her to read it. If she still wants one it's her decision, I don't, and will stick to buying A2B.

Yes my mistake, sorry, can't find way to delete one ?

Sold my Woosh sport CD a short while back with intention of buying a couple of electric folders. After a search round we decided on a couple of A2B models, but its been on hold since due to illness, anyway I'm 100% fit again now, some bloody hope. Her indoors had some info from Gtech on there...

This looks promising, I had the Kuo bikes on my list, especially the Kuo 2+. Not to far away. Will give them a call and hopefully go up in a week or so. Thanks

Went into Halfords, only folder I could see was Batribike, they showed a couple of cheaper models they sell in catalogue. Cant say either of us were that keen on the Batribike. It looks like we may have to travel out to Bristol or Exeter for more choice. I did see Brompton are going to put out a...

In a way i suppose your right with this, but we have one e bike shop were i live, did try them, wasn't impressed with what they had in stock. There is a Chain Reaction shop, which does sell e bikes but there not very helpful.i have used Halfords many times for car related stuff, and pedal cycle...
