Woosh kits...

woosh 15AH battery kit includes a charger - costs £315 including shipping.

You can buy a second charger if you wish. That charger also works on other bikes like the Big Bear. That's why it's listed in the online shop.

Eclipse 15AH battery also includes a charger, costs £270 but before shipping.

Yes, shipping of £7.99. Making Woosh £36.02 on the £314 package (and £37.02 on the £315 package you refer to) more expensive than Eclipse.

Of course, plumping for a 13ah from Eclipse makes it even more affordable, £67.02 cheaper to be precise.

Eclipse also sell additional chargers, which, being identical to the Woosh chargers, will also work on the Big Bear. But assuming (as is much more likely) that a budget kitbuilder is buying the battery, I don't think it matters.

.... the new kits won't be here until May.

Any more details on the new woosh kits? Is it the XMAX?

Is this it? http://x-max.en.alibaba.com/product/60161844411-801000348/36v250w_intelligent_torque_sensor_mid_drive_motor_center_motor_middle_drive_motor.html

Very interesting, but it appears to hang rather low. I wonder if it would get damaged in a mountain bike application?

A Bosch copy if ever there was one.

I wonder in what respect is it deemed to be an improvement over the existing 250W crank kits sold by woosh.
