Ian, When I was looking to buy my first electric bike 12 months ago I ordered the X6 but unfortunately whilst the bike was available, the battery was not. I knew about the limited mileage from the battery and intended buying a spare to go with it. Anyway, I cancelled my order and got a Wisper...

About a week ago took my Wisper City 905 se for a ride having charged the battery. I checked the battery button and had 5 lights. When I first switched on the power the handlebar power indicator flashed on momentarily then went off. No power at all. I continued my ride as the terrain was...

If I wanted to convert the front brake of my Wisper 905se city from cable to hydraulic, can anyone suggest a suitable kit at around the £40 mark?

Just insured my brand new Wisper 905 se City worth £1500 with my household insurers - Direct Line. I gave them a full description, leaving nothing out and they wanted £17 extra on my policy - brilliant!

Excellent news. I did start a thread last year in June 2009 suggesting a dedicated Electric Bike Magazine. Glad someone has taken up the challenge.......yes I know - why didn't I put my money where my mouth is? Truth is I'm a newcomer to Ebikes (Wisper 905se City S) and I'm still working, so...

Took advice from Lemmy's post on 4/3/10 about insurance. Just added my Wisper to my house/contents insurance with Direct Line and they quoted me £17 annually.....this covers damage/theft anywhere it occurs.

Thanks Guys.......it's funny how many of us have other interests as well as electric bikes. I play electric keyboard and have had many over the years. I too get that 'new' thrill when I have a new keyboard to play around with.

Just taken possession of a Wisper 905se City S supplied by 'FULL CHARGE AHEAD' run by two very knowledgeable guys - Jeff and Jonathan, based at Pugh's Garden Centre, Radyr, Cardiff www.fullchargeahead.com They've got a fair selection of electric bikes and encourage customers to take them out...

Looking at your Pedelecs site / A to B / our Eurofriends sites.....has anyone any opinion as to the best value buck for buck for a 'leccy bike for £2000.00 or under (preferably well under) Seems to me you can pay £5k or £6k for a USA job (where rules don't apply) or a Swiss Flyer for well...

Powabyke X6 Or 24? Hi Gbeton, You Don't Say What Height You Are That Requires You To Buy The X6 I Was On The Point Of Buying An X24 As I Am 5' 10" And Was Slightly Concerned It Would Be Too Big. I Had To Cancel My Order Because The Batteries Were Unavailable From China - Will Order...

Sahel It states the price as from E2000.

Sorry Zomb13e - meant also to say the Ignite looks promising.

Thanks to Andy of the South and Zomb13e for your comments. The YAKKAY is bound to elicit comments of "Where's your Horse?" The Cycle Chic doesn't look too bad. The TSG Recon Helmet I assumed was re-conditioned after being damaged but Evans Cycles doesn't say this!! I suppose I'll...

Andy of the South. My wife always has a good laugh at me with my old pudding basin helmet. In Halfords today we looked at one of the modern ones - I tried it on and my wife had a good laugh! I don't know what the answer to looking like a wally is!!

Where was his helmet??

PowaByke X24 sensor On 23rd June, 2009, Frank Curran from PowaByke did reply to me that all new PowaBykes were now back to one revolution before the motor kicks in.

New Xbyke Thanks Mike63 for your offer. It probably is a bargain but my work comute is just 2 miles with a killer hill getting back home. (The limited range on that small battery was also a concern to me) But I could buy an additional battery which would be small enough to transport around...

Just ordered the X6 but the shop rang me to say there's a 10 week waiting list. Rather than start my electric bike career at the beginning of November I've now ordered the X24 which has a 6 week waiting list. With all this talk of painful throttle thumb I shall have to wait and see. But it...

The latest Salisbury comes fitted with an LPX Lithium Polymer Battery. As a cheap spare battery could the basic NiMH also be used?

Reading a description of the Powabyke X6 on the web site of Mountain Bikes, BMX, Road, Mens, Womens, Kids Cycles – Leisure Lakes they say there are alternative batteries for the X6. A Lithium Plus at £299.99 and a Lithium Lite at £169.00 Does any member know which battery is fitted as...
