Just come across this UK company with 850 size battery and 100 mile range via mail order.company has been going for 2 years so hopefully will survive.they at least are very clear about restrictions and offer2 variants.

Interesting indicators etc:-)

at 1199 basic looks interesting

Any thoughts or experience

Good start with fat finger should be 1999

And the big battery version is £2499 plus delivery. And then it comes to £2,658 and that’s without any other options.

The cockpit wiring is a bit messy for my liking on a manufactured bike. The lighting is a nice touch, even though the headlight is not run off the main battery which is a bit odd. And it’s got an alarm and gps, although the gps tracking didn’t work on the reviewed bike, so maybe it needs a subscription.

 

That battery will cost a fortune when it’s time to replace and needs to removed for charging. Also it really needs the upgraded charger, so that’s another £139 on top.

 

Here is a review:

You just don’t know if you will be able to get support on these kind of bikes when stuff starts going wrong. Even Halfords and Decathlon don’t support their customers properly.

My Boardman mx hybrid 700cc had well over 100 mile range with two batteries, I used a 35v 14.5ah PF battery and 48v 23.2ah 8p PF pack I spot welded together (one adavntage of using a dual volt kt controller). My route from home to dorking - newlands corner (a25) traversing on to the downs link nr guildford would take me all the way to shoreham port via the aerodrome, a ride along the sea front and then north to ovingdean- amex stadium and head north to home. About 106 miles in all on a rear hub Akm 128c or a bafang cst.

I never ran out of juice and likely could get another 25 miles range.

for this price range (£1,999-£2,999), the Wisper range is difficult to beat.

They are properly finished bikes.

If you need things like GPS tracker, you can put an airtag or a Vodafone Curve on the bike.
