Servicing You are absolutly correct Straylight, it is easier to get your local cycle shop or your Wisper supplier to do this for you, they will only charge a few pounds. On the other hand I have serviced them quite often over the years and find it quite easy and interesting. All the...

Fun ride Either 23rd or 30th look good. I will do my utmost to be there. All the best David

What's in a name? Hi Nick We were warned off calling the range the Alfine by Shimano, Alpina was risking the wrath of BMW, Alpine seemed a good idea but Alipnebikes.com had gone so we have settled on calling the new range the Wisper Alpino. The Alpino versions of the 705, 806 and 905se...

Hi David This is Norman's view; It sounds like the bottom bracket needs stripping down and cleaning and regreasing. If parts are needed I can provide under warranty. The bike shop will be unlikely to be able to replace with a sealed unit as the Wisper BB is longer than a standard...

Bracket Hi David Not at all, I just want all Wisper riders to be happy with their bikes, so I really want to get your problem cured ASAP. I will write a report on sealed vs non sealed tonight. All the best David

Bottom Bracket Hi There have been one or two problems with the bottom brackets on the 905 but no more than we would expect, they all seem to have been sorted out relatively easily. If you email Norman on service@wisperbikes.com he will make sure you are looked after and any problem is...

15.5mph Hi Zombie I have just spoken to Alastair about your worries and he is going to contact you directly. The 905 should reach 15mph before the pedelec assistance cuts out completely although as required by law, the power will be gradually reduced from about 13mph. The battery power...

Gadget show I looked and found a few episodes of the new series Tim but the electric bike challenge was not on any of the previews, I will keep looking but it seems it will be on later in the year. All the best David

Christchurch Hi Paul, I am sorry, it sounds like them but I'm not certain. I am liaising with our Australasian manager Anthony Clyde, he is in the Marshall Islands at the moment seeing a few perspective Wisper dealers and having some R and R, lucky sod! When he materialises I will find out...

Report on EBWT on Spanish TV The press has started to take an interest in the EBWT as Guim heads out of Shanghai en-route to Vietnam, here is a video of Catalan TV's TV3 report. La volta al món en bicicleta elèctrica - Televisió de Catalunya All the best David

Hahaha Excellent Bigbee!!! :) It's all friendly and fun I promise you. Far better than the bickering of the past! All the best David

Wired Yes Tim, the Gadget show is on sometime this month (and they are giving away a Wisper 905se Sport) but I haven't found it yet, I will have a look tonight on the new Sky search thingy. Wired have a 906se prototype as well so we wait for the results with bated breath, oh I do so love the...

More detail Of course you are correct Bigbee, but any publicity is good publicity as the saying goes and it brings electric bikes into the mainstream. All the best David

Good freind Ahhhhhhh..... I wondered how the Kalkhoff got the five stars!! :eek: Sorry Tim, couldn't resist, it is a great bike! :D All the best David

5 stars Yes I noticed that too Tim, in the printed paper they gave us 4 stars but on the Daily Mail site they gave us 5, according to the Mail the error was in the print, hence the Wisper 905se City had a full page and was at the front of the article and the bike you mention got a half page at...

Love it! Hi Guys Do you have a crystal ball John?! Wisper Wear is on the way, we are working with a design company in New Zealand who are working on a range of weather proof and other clothing aimed at electric bike rider than the non powered bike guys. Hopefully we will have...

Sales Hi Straylight I will certainly report on the inquiries this week. Free publicity, we'll take it any way we can, I quite liked the "cool" look! :cool: The young adult market is important for us and tricky to get into. All the best David

Thanks Thanks Collin! I was more surprised by the size and quality of the images than getting such a good review! My daughter is pestering me to get the models mobile number! All the best David

Congratulations Tim! A first birthday, nothing like it, hope it all went well. I posted my own Mail on Sunday this morning before I had seen yours! See you soon. All the best David

Atmosphere Hi Zombie Alastair will look after you very well, he is one of out top dealers and really understands the bikes. The green button will go out today. Any problems drop me a line. All the best David
