That's a shame Malcolm, 60 miles would be stretching it a bit! This is an absolute bargain. As l,omg as the bike is inputted by a Wisper dealer and they give it a clean bill of health, I would be pleased to transfer the remainder of the warranty to the new owner. All the best, David

Hi Yaffa, sorry to read about your back. Is the battery 375Wh or 575Wh? I think a potential purchaser would be interested. A note to any potential buyer: This bike is still fully supported and will be for years to come. The warranty could be extended to the new owner if it were to be...

Hi Brizzleboy, I remember you buying the bike! How time flies. This is so good to see, 9 years old and still going strong! A note to anyone considering this bike, we still keep most parts in stock. It does look in excellent condition and a real bargain. All the best, David

Good point Chris, I do exactly the same, somethings to be aware of. I should say that on the Torque sensor bikes it wouldn't bee an issue and in the majority of cases the amount of movement needed to balance the position of the pedals whilst banking on a corner wouldn't be enough to set the...

We used to have a similar issue with cable brakes on our SE bikes, it didn't matter how well the brakes were adjusted they were always a little soft, particularly on the folding bikes, We discovered as you suggest, it was brake cable compression and movement. We have now changed all the cables...

As long as your bike has a 12 magnet disc it's absolutely fine. Even if it only only has a 6 magnet disc you won't have much of an issue. It's pretty unlikely that you will brake and pedal at the same time, just watch out that the motor could remain active for another 2 or 3 metres after you...

Atmosphere Electric bIkes in Bristol have just bought a fleet of Wispers for exactly this reason. The are for extended test rides, a great idea. They charge a few quid for a day or half a day's hire and refund if the customer buys. If making an investment in a new ebike, especially if it was...

And therefore local service levels high. That's why the vast majority of of all ebikes and motor vehicle in general, are bought through local dealers. All the best, David

Hi Blair, If range is critical to you try and buy a bike with a torque sensor, and 16Ah battery. This combination should easily get you pasty the 50 mile mark. All the best, David

To keep the price down!

Hi Kyorks, If you have the budget it may be worth considering our 705Torque. With a 575Wh battery it woul cost you £1,799. It has the added advantage of having a torque sensor and speed sensor and uniquely you can choose which sensor you want to use. The Torque sensor is fantastic for getting...

It's a good bike with good front forks. They are certainly up to the task. I have an ex Demo in Gold. I can offer it with a 25% discount. Full Warranty. Drop me an Email if you've are interested. David@amps.bike All the best, David

It's the same with our motors, they should not need any servicing but after a lot of use the planetary gears may need replacing. We have 12 year old bikes still going strong. Like Trigger's broom a bike could last for ever! All the best, David

The bike if properly serviced should be good for at least 7 or 8 years. The battery, if looked after should last for about 5. All the best, David

Hi Tommy, you are correct. I have again spoken to the MD who promptly placed an order for four bikes to replenish his stock. They have been in disarray for the last week. They were shut by the police as the London Bridge attack took place on the bridge immediately over their shop. The...

Price is important but there is almost nothing between the 8000 and the XT, having sold Bosch powered bikes for more than four years we were very much into the Bosch system, and our new GSM Jeremy worked for Magura selling Bosch systems until he joined us six months ago. Although we were...

Regarding gear sets, we would love to have a Rohloff version but the price would be prohibitive. Shimano gear sets are in our opinion superb, even the mid range sets used on our Wisper city and tracking bikes are excellent. We never have any issues. As long as there are properly adjusted they...

Apparently yes, we have to buy through an agent, but we are also considering finishing the bikes in Kent. All the best, David

We are building a range of four mountain bikes for next season. We thoroughly tested the CX and 8000 side by side. The 8000 is quieter and more responsive, it also sits on the bike in a better position than the CX allowing for the rear wheel to be bought further under the rider. This makes for a...

The CX motor is great, very similar in power to the Wisper Torque motor. The Active is very much weaker (and cheaper). I'd give that one a miss. If you are going Bosch certainly go CX, it's a good motor, although in my opinion not a patch on the Shimano Steps MTB8000. Hi Spinellino! Just back...
