    Wisper 705 step through used price

    Yep, I think it's a combination of the royale gel and the shape. Mine's the moderate version, for riders at a back angle of 60 deg. Works well for me, the holy grail of saddles finally found after a decade of looking

    Wisper 705 step through used price

    Nope it's an all in one handlebar/stem, no adjustment on height or angle, I guess they do this to cut costs, but surprisingly I get on with it fine, but as mentioned, wouldn't want to do the 70 mile a day week long tours on it (it wouldn't be able to do that with it's crappy 7.8ah 24v battery)...

    Wisper 705 step through used price

    Interested to know which ebikes you tried. Certainly they ride much differently than full size bikes, but you do get use to them if they are of the longer wheelbase style. I'm 6ft 2in and I can ride a Coyote Connect folder 20in wheels (picked up cheap for £200 in Halfords ex display a few...

    Help! e-City Bike/Coyote Connect Repair - Motor probably gone

    So presumably the shop unplugged the motor cable near the motor and tested the voltage with a multimeter of the connector whilst turning the pedals while the system was powered on ? Was there voltage getting that far ?

    I wouldn't worry about the brake sensors, I and many others don't use them The chain hitting the frame or the chain coming off the highest (smallest rear cog) gear and getting wedge between the wheel and frame ? If the latter, then you'll need to adjust the high/low derraileir screws (high for...

    Help! e-City Bike/Coyote Connect Repair - Motor probably gone

    The bike is 24v, and the controller is separate to the battery but housed in the rear carrier which the battery slides into. The battery is approx 8ah, about 250wh I'm not convinced it is the motor that's the problem, but if it is, something like below provided its the same axle spacing and...

    Oh no, 190 miles in and TSDZ2 strange noise

    This sounds similar to what I experienced last summer. During a country lane ride, I thought to myself how loud the birds were, chirping away constantly, and weirdly silent when freewheeling Turned out my chain was bone dry after a long tour in Europe a few weeks before. I'd be using dry lube...

    Which e bike

    Fair enough, didn't realise those prices were fitted. Mind you, as we all know, it's not too difficult to fit a Bafang mid motor and Hailong downtube battery (extra riv nuts aside), and to do a neat job too, and would encourage anyone to have a go, there's so many youtube guides let alone loads...

    Bafang displays with navigation and Bluetooth

    I'm beginning to have doubts that the app/maps behind this are up to the job yet. The beauty of Komoot is that I can load a gpx file in advance and ride the route knowing I will be on a pre planned route that I have studied beforehand. I'm not sure that this will do that other than do an A to...
