Road Legal Sorry I may be being a bit slow here. :confused: Nick can we use any size motor we want as long as the bike and battery weigh under 40kg? And the 15mph under power is not going to be adhered to? We are testing a 1400W motor for a new project which will be revealed next year...

Motor home? We'll be in tents, cheap ones! :D All the best David

Wisper demo Done! All the best David

Extra Energy Hi Bigbee EA seem to be a self appointed test house for Electric bikes especialy in continental Europe. I am not certain how much their advice is heeded but they are very active. In my opinion they are good for the industry, at least it gives a bench mark for manufacturers to...

Cheap bikes Hi Bigbee You can buy a complete bike in China for £17.00 retail, you can buy an electric bike for under £200.00, you can buy a motor for £17.00, a frame for £8.00 a battery for £45.00 etc. etc. but you would not particularly want it. And forget RoHS and EN15194 compliance. In...

Absolute Rubbish Hi Bigbee If only you knew how much effort was being put in by all the manufacturers and dealers in this country, trying to make the electric bike a mainstream vehicle. I know most of them personally and I can assure you that none of them making fortunes. Far from...

Leasing Interesting Straylight With batteries getting better day by day it must be worth investigating. I will have a look at it. All the best David

Green button Hi Thunder The difference in having and not having the de restrict is not massive. The motor is geared to the wheel, so the bike gets maximum torque at low speeds and just over 25kph (15.5 mph) when at full speed. The gearing on the 905 will take the bike up to about...

The Germans Yes and they had a very nasty habit of winning all the F1 Grand Prix for a while too. Hi Frank Most had; The throttle only capability removed. The brakes on the wrong way for the UK market. Different tyres that were more prone to problems. Brakes that were not as good...

It's not easy being green! Dear Watkins, stick with it..... Kermit never had a problem and nor do I. I just stupidly thought that someone, obviously far less enlightened than you or I, may prefer the black ones :eek: and the sale may be easier! Best regards David

Mudguards I am happy to supply the black mudguards to the winner of this auction for the price of the postage!! :eek: :D All the best Watkins and well done! Best regards David

Meetings There does seem to be a diary of events starting to emerge with the superb Tour de Presteign and now the Ching Chalenge. I would like to become involved in a London event if anyone is interested in sharing the load? It would be good to have a meeting on the evenings either...

Don't worry Django Hi Django Thanks for your concern but I have seen enough of these now not to be too worried, the only thing that upsets me a little is we are getting lots of warranty claims from people with these bikes from all over the world, we even had a Wisper dealer claiming spare...

Thanks Rog Absolutly spot on Rog. The yellow light changes to green and the fan stops when the battery is almost but not quite fully charged, we do this as fully charging/discharging the battery regularly lessens it's life span. The deep charge carries on after the lights have changed form...

Old Wispers never die they simply lose some buzz Good day guys Of course it is true that the older batteries are not as good or sophisticated as the new however we do have customers now in their fourth year with the the original battery. The whole German bike debacle was a long time ago...

Batteries Well done Nick, it looks like a lot of fun! If anyone wants to come and join in with their Wisper, I would be pleased to lend you a second battery for the event. If you don't have an electric bike and would like to borrow one, I am sure we will have some ex demos available for the...

Wisper 905se Thanks Larry, Vicki and Hard Rock, I am delighted you are enjoying your bikes. Sorry to hear about the exploding tyre Larry what pressure was it at and was it during the hot weather? Best regards David
