I spotted this today: Clean Mobile Looks interesting, although the trailer seems a bit bulky. Does anyone know anything about this? Regards, Elephants

Dear all, The motor Cut-Off has stopped working on the left hand (rear) brake lever of my Wisper 905SE. I'm in the habit of squeezing both brake levers at the same time, so its taken me a while to notice the problem. I don't recall the wire getting pulled at any time, although I did come off...

I thought I'd try and move the debate on this Wisper specific thread into a more public space in case non-Wisper interested folk have missed it. The situation as I understand it is as follows: Rear hub motors require an spindle of large diameter to allow motor wiring pass through the...

Well I had my first and second punctures on my Wisper 905SE yesterday. Luckily the 1st one happened about 0.5 miles into my commute, so I was able to walk home and take the car to work. I was riding along when I noticed a strange clicking coming from the rear wheel on each revolution. Just as...

I'd like to take my 3 year old daughter with me on my Wisper 905SE every now and then, but I'm unsure whether to get a child seat or a child trailer. Does anyone have any advice? My thoughts so far are as follows: Child Seat Pro's: Cheaper than trailers The child is closer to you so...

Hi Everyone, I've worn out the rear brake pads on my 905SE Sport (too many 35mph descents!). I'm a cycling novice, so I've no idea if I need pads that are matched to my brakes (which are some sort of Promax caliper I think), or will any old pads do? Whilst I'm at it, what sort of spare...

I've noticed a couple of postings about the front and rear brakes on the Wisper 905SE: I too have found the brake cables spongy, and needing regular adjustment. How easy is it to replace the cables? (I had a look this morning and the brake, gear and electric cables all seem to be bound...

Whilst riding I've been getting very sweaty in the gentleman's groin department. This is uncomfortable at best, occasionally becoming very uncomfortable indeed. I've tried tight lycra shorts to little effect (except my children laugh at me, and my teenage step-daughter can hardly bring...

I've been intrigued by burncycle's performance tests (Pro Connect First Range Test and Pro Connect Test 2), particularly the elevation profiles for the test routes. Having no GPS device and tight pockets I've been looking a way to generate my own elevation profiles for free :D. I've found...

I managed to run my Wisper to the point where the battery started cutting out on Monday (about 42 miles). I charged it up on Monday evening, then took the bike to work on Friday, where I was really surprised at how fast the first battery light went out. So my question is as follows...

In response to some questions KeithHazel has been asking, I got around to fixing the speedo and took my Wisper out at lunch-time to see how fast I could make it go. First off, the speedo seems to be accurate over distance (I've measured the route several times before in the car), so I assume...

As I chained my Wisper 905SE up at work today it occurred to me that the most valuable bit of kit on the bike is the battery, which isn't even secured to the frame. In fact, since the saddle post has a quick release mechanism, a would be thief wouldn't even need any tools to pinch the...

I've just been in touch with David @ Wisper Bikes. Apparently the new 905's arrived in the UK last week and are currently going through customs. They should be with Wisper either Friday or Monday ready to distribute next week. Hurrah :D (Hope I get mine in time to take it to...

I've just notices this article on the main pedelecs web site: Technical Article: Drive Through Gears on E-bikes which was written by the illustrious flecc in August 2007. The article draws the following conclusions: My (very brief) summary of the article is as follows: Hub motor - good. Drive...

Can anyone think of any reason why Mandy should find the Wisper 905SE very fast, while Willliam Davis finds it very slow? Weight? Hills? N.B. This is a subject close to my heart as I've got one of these on order and I'm rather hoping my experience will be very fast rather than very slow!
