Thanks for another fantastic report Croxden! Riese and Muller bikes are really taking off in the UK, they are without doubt one of the best built electric bicycles available. The down side is that there is always at least a three week wait to get one! Looking forward to hearing seeing the...

Hi Al, was the Alpino fitted with the rack that takes a pump? All the best David

Fantastic! Thanks. All the best David

Hi Col, I have been asked not to mention who they are for the time being, however I can say it is not your good selves, or us!! No one will be surprised though. All the best David

This is always a tricky problem, at FWG we try and promote the use of a local stockist, one who will look after you and your bike. If you buy a bike from a retailer at the other end of the country it is difficult to persuade a local stockist to become involved in sorting out a problem. There...

Hi Dave, we have been working on this project for the last 12 months. Hence my inactivity here. I completely agree, we feel settings should be such that as a rider becomes more tired they can pump up the assistance levels. The Wisper TS Hybrid Sensor system splices information from the Torque...

Lithium Plutonium 239 should go like a bomb?

Hi Steve, thanks for your very kind comments re your Wisper! If you are thinking of replacing, the FreeGo Hawk could be an answer at £999, or if you need a 720Wh battery the FreeGo Martin may be of interest. Unfortunately the new Wispers will no longer have a throttle. All the best and good...

Thanks for the Kind remarks Black Dog, the 905Classic is a very special bike. The power is slightly stronger on each setting. We leave the maximum power on for more and more time on each setting to help you get to higher speeds at max power. If you need any further advice you are very welcome...

This was indeed the case Dave, however a lot of bike out of China now work on torque sensors. The new Wisper Torque and Kombi Bikes use a clever algorithm that combines a very sensitive torque sensor and a speed sensor. This enables us to increase the power and sensitivity of the TS without...

Lithium Sulphur is still on the back burner, we are still involved though and there are two Sulphur Wisper Alpinos currently running around the roads of Abingdon. We are now using Samsung cells in all our new bikes, Li Po seems to have slipped back a bit. The new Wispers to be unveiled at the...

Hi Croxden, what a fantastic report, may I use it on our web pages? I have heard that the Rohloff can take 10,000km before it is perfectly run in! Hence the reason people with Rohloff's keep them for life, transferring them from bike to bike as they go. I see you also have a Birdy, now...
