My wife's Santana 3 suddently and without any warning cut out the other day on the way to work. The display went dead, not even a backlight, and the motor stopped supplying power. She had to cycle home unassisted. It has been very successful and came with one factory mod - we requested Woosh to...

My Woosh conversion kit suffered a setback today. When I turned on the KD58C display only the backlight came on (ie completely bright white) and no LCD text. Bike battery was on nearly full charge after only a short ride since its last charge. I pressed the + button a couple of times to try...

Hi, wondering why an ebike might feel like it's struggling to go up hills? I have a two year old Santana3, modified (on my request by Woosh) to have a torque sensor. It's been brilliant but for one thing that has become more noticeable recently. It feels like it's dragging when going up hill. I...

Hi, riding along today my fairly new Woosh Santana3 simply cut out. It's only had light use, maybe not more than a few dozen miles as it is very new and all on roads or tarmaced cycle paths. Immediately before it cut out the motor gave an unexpected and loud whirring noise for a few seconds...

Having just got a wonder new new Woosh Santana (more anon) I need recommendations for suitable panniers. Neither my trusty Carradice nor my Alturas will fit as the rack tubes are too thick and the clearance between rack and battery is insufficient. What bag or bags would go over the rear rack...

Heard a right racket coming up the street the other day. Expecting to see a youth in bandana on a quadbike I was bemused when the "thing" shot past me to see it was a pedal cycle with a petrol engine attached. I was too surprised and the rider was too fast to actually see where the engine was...

Just curious having tried a few different motors recently. I tried a bike with an Active Line motor, specification and price to die for but just couldn't get past the annoyance that above 15mph/25kph the bike switched instantaneously from feeling like I had bionic legs to feeling like I was...

Hi, thanks to what I've read on these fora and after trying out examples on display at the NEC recently I'm looking to convert my touring/city bike (a Dawes steel frame with Nexus rear wheel hub gears) to electric. I have a 30 mile round commute which is quite hilly in parts so looking for high...

I'm fed up with the traffic and looking to switch to cycling. My commute is around 14 miles each way involving a number of hills and an overall climb of 700 feet. I might need to pop in and out the office for half a dozen miles then another 14 miles home. Total therefore is around 30-35 miles a...
