Its an older discontinued model a predecessor of the 905 I believe.

:( Sorry yes you are quite right Tom.
705's are still current in Torque or SE models.

The reason I asked is because of depreciation levels, I saw the wisper at £550 but being 2012 its sure to need a new battery £350 making £900 a new 705e can be had for £945 making the seemingly cheap second hand look poor value in my opinion.

Can a new 705SE really be had for under £1000 these days?
I'd be keen to know where from.

ebike-centres' price was the same in April 2016 - see WayBackMachine.

Amps Electric Bikes Ltd increased their prices by £100 in September 2016. I suggest that the price on that webpage has either been forgotten about, or is left to entice prospective purchasers but no stock is available at that price.

Cyclehouse's offering is actually £1099.99.

Contact the dealer or amps themselves you will match the £999 price or less for cash.

Those older Wisper bikes don't have enough torque for you. A Wisper Torque, Woosh Big Bear or a Volt anything X would be more suitable.

I tend to agree as their 905SE is listed at the new price and correct. There are no differences in the two bikes other than frame style.

Cheers

Hi, the Alpino range were discontinued over three years ago. The main differences to the current Wisper's are:

1. Price £1,999
2. 28"
3. White
4. Front wheel drive (Dapu)
5. 8 speed hub gears Shimano Alfine
6. Seat post battery
7. Hollow tech crank

We still gave all the parts for servicing.

We dropped the model when we moved to Germany. We are currently considering reintroducing. Those who bought them loved the bike.

All the best, David
