Don't fret, you haven't made a bad decision. Nothing is perfect, there will always be something to criticise, (even on a Kalkhoff agadoo or whatever...), but as an overall package I reckon you'll have a blast! Cheers, Phil

Hi 'Elephants' You got it dead right on the gearing, that's exactly what's meant. You are also correct about the chain, and I did remove a couple of links. The chain will still fall off continuously though unless the new sprocket is moved inwards as I described. This is easy to do though, and...

Ok David, and thanks for the reply. Basically I do like my Wisper, as I said, and it is great on long inclines and moderate slopes, but it does struggle with me on the very steep stuff. I think perhaps the issue may be that for me, and my area it is a tad over geared. I experimented by putting...

Hi, No problem, just be sure to check your Optibike hasn't been refitted with a 50w motor........!

Hi Poppy Nice to hear from you, and glad I'm not alore in noticing this. Generally I'm quite happy with my Wisper, but I too have noticed several problems - over gearing, and brakes being the most prominent. The brake cables seem to be made of bungee cord! - they had to go. If you try gearing...

Hi I was wondering if you could clear up a point of some confusion for me. I recently bought a wisper 905se, from the electric transport shop in Cambridge. At the time it was advertised as having a 250w rear hub motor. When I received it there was sticker on the rear hub stating “200w” – so...

The ultimate bike computer. I got cheesed off with cycle computers generally a while ago, both wired and wireless varieties. I now use a small sat nav unit (garmin foretrex). It fixes securely to bike bars, gives accurate speeds without having to calibrate the wheel, and a whole host of other...

Harry, don't worry. They (the police, beaks etc.) really aren't interested. A really flagrant breach of the law, massively illegal speeds on the pavement etc., that's another matter - but you don't need an e-bike for that (see flecc's post regarding this)! A bit of over gearing on aTorq is...

Hi, Can't quite understand the fuss about the legality issue. If the motor is legal, i.e. 250w or less continuous, then everything else is self limiting. If you gear it to do 20 mph, the motor and battery will not be up to hill climbing adequately - which is after all what most people buy an...

Hi Just joined the site. Found you by typing 'Pedelecs' into google. You came up first! I have ridden a Powabyke Euro for several years; now own a Wisper Works 905se (modified a little to suit). Does the job nicely for me @ present. Cheers, Phil
