    My worry Tony is the two words together. Whisper is to speak with a very quiet voice or Shhhh.... do you see where I am going with this? The Wisper IT? My competition would have a feild day! :eek:

    I am sitting with the design team at the moment. The name is a real sticking point, I am reading all your suggestions out as we get them. Moth and IT seem to have it at the moment although Ole (with the accent!) has also been suggested. I like Pineapple! This has to be a name that works...

    Hi Jim I’m away at the moment at the factory. All of the above us accurate. I think I saw an email from you addressed to support@amps.bike if it wasn’t you I suggest you contact Claud using this address. He will certainly be able to sort out the issue. All the best, David

    Thanks for your comments Al. We are not sure about Pineapple either, Moth was another short lister, amongst lots of others. But what’s in a name? A bike by any other name would ride as sweet! We have today confirmed the earth magnets to hold the bike when folded and two drive models a Gates...

    Hi Mike, the Battery simply unlocks and pops out of the frame tube when folded. As per these prototype images. All the best, David

    Thanks Craig, we are going to add rear lights in the seat pin. Not sure about the front light as yet. All the best, David

    Hello from Gloucester!

    Thanks Ravener, if Nick would like to contact me directly, I will look after him. We can put the RM Charger mountain together with mudguards and lights together for about £2,000. The bike has hardly been used. All the best, David David@amps.Bike

    Hi Mike, thanks, we haven’t considered a child seat. We will though. A chain guard also needs looking at. We dong need a roller wheel as the bike rolls on the wheels. We will have an integral rear light option but will probably keep the front light as a separate item. We have a lock solution...

    Thanks again Eddie, we have seen both of these, Halfords have one and so did FreeGo. All the same frame. We are taking the concept one further, a better ride, higher quality components and lighter with more accessories and choices. We have been watching Brompton’s work on their ebike with...

    Looks good, isthd Battery in frame? This is certainly one to watch!

    Thanks Eddie, as Battery energy density has moved on since the Volt was first produced we are able to get away with a much smaller battery.

    Thanks Crockers, we are going for higher end components and we see prices between £1,000 and £2,000 depending on options chosen by the customer, but they may be higher. Currently 35% of or sales are folders and this is increasing, this is a very different bike, much lighter at a projected...

    Excellent point! We were only going to offer one telescopic stem but the Birdy optional Angles makes serious sense. All the best, David

    Go to work on a Pineapple! Wisper Folder sneak preview.

    Hi Peter, All excellent points. We are currently using an earth magnet to lock the wheels together. The way we will sell the bike is much like the Brompton method. There will be the basic stripped down model as a starting point then customers can add accessories, disc brakes, mudguards, rack...

    Thanks John. The rack should be ready when I get out there, I’ll post images. I like the idea of integral lights. The lock is based on our current Folding bike lock. We have managed to get rid of any creaks. We will be discussing the chain drive in detail and I’ll post details. All the best...
