Wanted MTB with Throttle wanted (Wisper, Oxygen, Woosh, etc)

[stringsonfire]

Looking for an eBike with front or full suspension and throttle for my partner.

We're based in/around Hertfordshire and Essex.

 

[Woosh]

we have a Santana3 mail order return at reduced price if you are interested.
It has front suspension and a throttle.
I'll post pictures on our second hand web page later this week.

and throttle

Curious to know your requirement for a throttle, most off the shelf ebikes will only achieve a walking speed of 6km/h using the throttle alone.

Full speed for disabled partner, possible on a lot of rear motor bikes

Still trying to organise a trip to Southend. That one doesn't look very off-road?

If you fit a bafang mid drive kit or a bike that's been converted already it will do what you need

Don't have a bike to fit a mid drive kit to, and wouldn't really know where to start

Ok then woosh is a good bet

Santana will cope with light trails and old railway lines.

Needs to be something that can ride a bit rougher than that, including forests and a little open countryside

Before you purchase, just make sure the throttle is not limited or you can easily re-program it if it is.

most e-bikes front suspension forks have 63mm travel, good compromise for made roads. All the Santanas have 63mm forks.
The Rio MTB and Zephyr have 100mm fork with preload adjustment and lockout, so better suited for forestry tracks.
Both can be ridden by a 5ft3 person but their ideal rider height is 5ft8-5ft10.

We went with a Wisper 705, which has been fantastic.

I've actually just listed it in the Classifieds as we're moving from Herts to a more foresty area and are planning to get a mid-drive Wisper Wayfarer MTB.
