    Help! Please help me buy a commuter bike :)

    Hi Dave, we use the new Kenda ebike tyre with Kevlar puncture protection. These tyres are excellent. They don't have the Schwalbe name but in my experience they are just as tough and the grip is maybe a little bit better. We now spec our bikes with 1.95" tyres they are great for light off road...

    Help! Please help me buy a commuter bike :)

    Hi Nelly, best way to choose the right ebike for you is to find a local dealer, go and try the bikes. We don't yet have a dealer in Brighton but there are several there. Unless you are confident in electric bike maintenance it's important to buy your bike from a dealer who is close enough to...

    Hopefully going to buy a wisper 905 torque

    Hi Dave, if you knew Liam I am sure you would agree he is no con man. Nothing could be further from the truth. I'll have a quick word with him today to get some details. I am also pretty certain the battery was almost flat. It sounds as if it's a 375Wh. For towing a 575Wh would be preferable...

    Hopefully going to buy a wisper 905 torque

    Hi Malcolm, Sorry to read there was an issue with the bike, it sounds to me that the battery was towards the end of its charge. I'll have a chat with Liam and get back to you. I wouldn't put slime into the tyres. Since we upgraded the tyres about two years ago it's no longer necessary and can...

    BMW Cruise e Bike - any good?

    We certainly don't all fall into this category, Wisper has been around for more than 12 years. Our bikes are made in Kunshan, we look after our customers for as long as they have the Wisper bike. Please read above, an old Wisper is worth more than 60% of the price of a new BMW. All the best, David

    BMW Cruise e Bike - any good?

    That's a great price. I hope you don't mind me commenting, but the second hand price of Wispers has always been high. This greatly reduces the price to own a Wisper. Using decent components and holding enough stock of spare parts to enables us to look after even the oldest Wisper bikes is...

    Looking for affordable step-through to commute up-hill

    Hi Linnea, Thanks for letting me know. I've just spoken John from EBikes Scotland. He has placed an order for Demo bikes. He explained the season was still getting started and they don't yet have all their 2017 bikes in place. In fact he is expecting snow! If you give John a call he will make...

    Looking for affordable step-through to commute up-hill

    Just a thought! Have you considered a Wisper 705se from £1099? We could arrange a test ride at a local Wisper dealer. We strongly reccomend buying as locally as possible. Any ebike will need servicing and maintaining, so unless you are happy serving the bike yourself or have good access to...

    Looking for affordable step-through to commute up-hill

    Hi, assuming the batteries have the same capacity, I would suggest Woosh are being more sensible and giving you a good average rather than the absolute maximum range. Ranges are always tricky so check the bikes are 36V and that the Ah figure match. Most legal bikes with the same battery...

    Are there any British manufacturers?

    I have actually seen it at the Brompton factory. However I really would be surprised if we saw it this season. As RM discovered when they tried to electrify the Birdy, it's tricky.

    I'll keep you in mind Womble! Had great fun in Taipei a couple of weeks ago speccing the bikes.
