Yes, 23 miles each way. Best time of 1:40 each way.

Thanks. Cassettes are fine as long as you can service/replace the freehub. You can get 9 speed screw-on freewheels which will have the same stack height as the 8-speeed but a freehub/cassette setup would give more choice.

I collected the Wisper 705 with 575Wh battery from CH White & Son. I previously bought a Brommie from them and they have given me good advice. I was given a wedge for the brake caliper when I said I'd need to take the front wheel out to get it in the car. I think it was last year's model at last...

Yes I have Gaadi inner tubes but I suspect standard inner tubes perform better.

Thanks for the reviews. I was especially interested in how to change a rear wheel puncture. Did you need to turn the bike upside-down?

Aha, it's written at the bottom of the seat-post as 30.9mm.

Hi, I want to change the seat-post on my Wisper 705 (2021 model I think). Is it 30.9mm? Thanks, Paul

Kudos have 3 models with the safer LiFePO4 battey. This is the only derailleur fitted one: http://www.kudoscycles.com/product_info.php?cPath=1&products_id=218

I assume the like treacle when going downhill is because the assist disappears around 15mph. How many gears on this, 7? I've recently bought a 705SE and am in the process of changing it from 7 to 8 spd. Be careful if you ever take the cranks off. On mine they had been way overtighted. The crank...

Thanks. Good to know.

I'm seriously considering buying a new 705 Torque model bike but they now come with a 7 speed freewheel and shifter. Is it straightforward to install an 8 speed freewheel and 8 speed shifter? I am mechanically competent. I believe an 8 speed freewheel is slightly wider than a 7 speed one so is...

I believe Bosch has a software algorithm which can sense gear changes and drop the power, presumably by detecting changes in chain tension as the RD starts to do its job.

Thanks for the info. 72 Degrees by modern standards is certainly not steep, although i was hoping for a little bit less. It would be nice if Ebike manufacturers published the frame geometries of their bikes. It would make comparisons easier and help customers to choose the right size bikes for...

A Woosh kit and a used donor bike wouldn't be much above £600.

Good advice. On reflection I think the Wisper 705 is a contender even though it carries the battery on the rear rack. The Wayfarer is more of an off-road/trail bike whereas the 705 is more of a road bike. The 705 also has a proven torque sensor. Can I ask what the seat tube angle of the 705...

I'm looking for a step-thru eBike with a rear hub motor and a central battery (not on a rear rack). I'm wanting a battery which is more than 500 Wh so I can do a 50 mile cmmute. I've narrowed it down to: Wisper Wayfarer, Juicy Roller, Volt Burlington. The Wayfarer has the largest battery (700...

A quick update. I managed a 47 mile commute last Thursday on a single charge. I used power setting 4 on the outward leg, holding 14 to 15 mph. Around and at junctions I reduce the power setting to level 2. On the return leg, with the battery indicator falling, I stepped the power level down to...

When I changed the back tyre to a Greenguard, I struggled less with getting the wheel out and back in than I was anticipating. I was only able to remove one washer which was on the non-drive side. I had to leave the one on the drive side to maintain chain or cog clearance with the frame.

Ok, I had my first ride today and everything works so thought it worth documenting the installation whilst I can recall it. Will try to post photos separately afterwards. As mentioned above, fitting the wheel into the dropouts is something of a struggle since it’s significantly wider than 135mm...

I couldn't get the rack to go on. One leg was twisted so the mounting bolt through it was angled and wouldn't go into the frame without cross-threading. So I've sent the rack back to Woosh along with the right-side PAS sensor, which wasn't what I ordered. Guess that's one advantage of using a UK...
