February 19, 200818 yr Hi, does anyone who has a wisper 905e know if the Zoom front disc brake pads are a stock item that can be bought in most bike shops, or as from reading Gary Winters review on his 905e http://www.pedelecs.co.uk/articles/55/1/Wisper-Works-905e-Owner-Reviews/Page1.html most likely that they can only be purchased directly from wisper themselves. Thank you
February 19, 200818 yr I've got some doubt that the disc brake manufacture is in fact Zoom, as those aren't a normal product line of theirs and it's a very specialised field. Are there any markings or code numbers on it that you can see? That might help me track down who made it. .
February 19, 200818 yr Author Thanks flecc, i`ll have to check it out tomorrow as i have to go out again now
February 20, 200818 yr Author Hi, just got home from work. The opnly things i can see are. FØ160 or it could be FØ760 as the top is concealed. The only other thigs printed, apart from Zoom are. 06.G Patent 012153. I have done a google but have been unable to come up with anything. Thanks
February 20, 200818 yr For the moment that leaves me just as stumped I'm afraid. It looks like Zoom are dabbling in this market now, but with nothing known outside of their own company it seems. Persisting with Wisper or doing as Gary has done, changing the disc brake, seem to be the only options at present. But I will try further to find out something for you. .
February 20, 200818 yr Author I am suprised that more manufacturers/distributers dont actually have a spare parts service. There must be a large propotion of customers who would undertake these tasks themselves if they were confident that they had the correct parts before starting the job as there would be less chance of running into problems fitting/replacing regularly servicable items.
February 20, 200818 yr Brake pads Hi Hawkwind If you call Phil at our New Milton warehouse and shop 01425 627641. He will arrange to get some to you, they are £2.00 fr a set and £3.00 postage for as many sets as you need. We have upgraded the brakes on the 2008 models and pads will be available in most bike shops. Best regards David
February 20, 200818 yr Now that's what I call a quick response! I emailed David about this problem just after 1 pm, and here's the answer at 2.28 pm. Great service David, thanks for the prompt attention. .
