    Short report from the CORE bike show.

    Hi Alan, I am sure that the figures are not absolutely accurate, due as Dave says to the relatively small number of people who responded, although I should say that I was pleased with the response as were the DfT. Mark Loveridge who instigated the survey published the results here...

    Short report from the CORE bike show.

    I agree, it would have been better with 10 times that Dave but it gives an impression of the market and is about all there is to go on at the moment. All the best David

    Short report from the CORE bike show.

    Yes that is certainly a worry Flecc, of course the one thing that those figures do not show is the quantity of bikes sold. £134K represented 139 sales where as the £114k represented only 56 bikes. I agree there should and hopefully will be a massive increase in the sales of entry level bikes...

    Short report from the CORE bike show.

    Thanks Dave, yes I have been rushed off my feet with the move out of China to Germany, but it has started to settle down now that all the components are being delivered. I have a few weeks to sit back a bit now before the bikes are ready. Although as we have pre-sold 50% of German Wispers from...

    Short report from the CORE bike show.

    Of course you are right Flecc, I don't expect instant massive sales, however the acceptance amongst IBDs is much stronger than I have experienced over the last eight years with a real jump from last year. It was also pleasant to hear from bike professionals that the spec on the top end bikes...

    Short report from the CORE bike show.

    Last weekend the E4 group were at the CORE Bike show at Whittleburry Hall in Northamptonshire. The E4 group consisting of Wisper, Hero Eco, Storck, and EBC were invited to participate in this very prestigious show for UK bike dealers earlier in 2012 as it was felt by the organisers that...

    Another newbie

    Thanks Flecc, Jeff, it sounds as if you have a problem with the control unit on the handle bars, maybe some damp has crept in. As Flecc says it would be best to contact Wisper support directly or speak to your supplier. We will certainly have the part in stock if it needs replacing...

    Adjusting levers for Tektro Auriga E-Comp Hydraulic brakes (906)

    Hi Riverboots, d8veh is spot on as usual! The pedals should not rotate when you are simply pushing the bike, it needs a service, adjustment or maybe as you suggest simple lubrication. If you in any doubt please speak to your supplier. If that fails you are free to email our Wisper...

    Battery conditioning.

    I don't know Flecc, I haven't changed my socks for nearly three years now!! :o

    Battery conditioning.

    Hi Flecc, AE have not made our batteries for some years now. The new batteries we use in conjunction with our quite sophisticated chargers mean that a simple charge is acceptable, making certain of course the charger is set to the 42V full charge rather than the new winter conditioning 39V. The...

    New Woosh Crank-drive Bike

    Hi Blew it, we stopped using AE a few years ago now due to some quality issues. Not bad ones particularly, but there were a lot of small issues mainly with the build quality. All the best David

    Hi Indalo, When I first saw the bikes I too was a little taken aback, however they have grown on me to the extent that I think they are two of the best looking bikes about, it is strange how designs grow on one! The belt drive is wonderful to ride being almost silent, apparently the belts...

    Hi Fordulike, We are certainly looking into selling the more powerful bikes for off road use, mainly the mountain bike MX. If we do decide to sell them, we will give the same warranties as on all our bikes. All the best David

    Thanks David, as soon as they are here I will let you know! I do particularly like the Easy, 48V, 3 internal gears and regen under braking, very sophisticated! All the best David

    Hi Alex, thanks for your kind comments re the design, we are very excited about the bike. The battery is mounted to the underside of the frame as you suggest. It is protected by an aluminium cage that hinges down from the front so the hinge is at the rear and the lock at the front. The...
