    High torque for hilly Exeter

    I should point out that our torque bikes start as soon as you push down on the pedals. It's much like an accelerator on a car. Hill starts are very easy and there is no danger of being stopped for having a twist and go throttle, whether it's been retro fitted or not. I think you would get on...

    High torque for hilly Exeter

    Thanks Gaz, I am pleased to read you are getting on well with your Wisper! The SE is a great bike but if Lezlee would like more power the Wisper Torque series would certainly fit the bill. All the best, David

    Wisper eMTB sneak preview

    Thanks Kiwi, I wasn’t aware either. I’ll ask the question of our frame manufacturers. I knew the power consumed to make an Alloy frame was enormous and assumed Carbon was much better in terms of energy use during manufacturing. I’ll get back to you. All the best, David

    How long do you expect an ebike to last before needing replacement?

    Hi Mike, good question, made me think! Battery cells have become much more efficient and have a higher energy density, so batteries are smaller and lighter and more reliable than they have been in the past. The number of cycles a battery will last has also increased from about 400 to over 1000...

    e-Moblity - should bike shops be looking at the wider e-transport picture?

    How long do you expect an ebike to last before needing replacement?

    We expect seven years from our bikes, we hold parts in stock to cover servicing older bikes, it's a big expense for us but we feel it's worth it. We do have 10 year old Wispers on the road still however they are a long way out of date now as tech moves on so fast. I am sure though that some of...

    e-Moblity - should bike shops be looking at the wider e-transport picture?

    Hi Auxtail, welcome to the forum. We have been developing ebikes for 12 years now and are spending all of our resources on a commuter model. The carbon motored version will tip the scales a under 11.7 kg (calculated) will have no cables to get caught up and will have a range of about 20 miles...

    Newbie with a question

    Hi Dan, firstly thanks for investing in a Wisper. The 806se is one of our most popular bikes. Re speed, unfortunately it's the law. We all think it's crazy and nonsensical but I cant see it changing. My advice would be to keep the bike in level 1 and only use the rest of the power when hill...

    Need help choosing a bike for 19 mile commute

    Hi Ryan The bikes I have are not HS and are single Battery. You can buy a second Battery but you would need to carry it on your rack and fit it when the first battery needs replacing. All the best, David

    Need help choosing a bike for 19 mile commute

    We have a Charger Mountain, a Cruiser, an Avenue with Rolhoff hub, a Roadster and two Birdies left. Regarding the batteries, they are all showing max voltage still so I am able to offer the full manufacturers guarantee. All the best, David

    Advice needed please

    Hi Mike, the bikes you mentioned are all good mid motor and are designed to go off road. The 705Torque is just as powerful, has a larger Battery capacity and probably more range, but is designed for metalled roads. It can be ridden on mild off road tracks. You choice of bike really depends on...
