    do you go further on ebike or more on unpowered?

    I cycle much further now under power. 30 years ago I felt strong and that I could cycle indefinitely. Now, age is catching up with me. Before autumn last year when I got the Whyte, I was very selective about where and when I'd ride, and the commute was a bit of a chore. Now, I want to go out...

    Evening Dr M :) I'm in a similar position, just the other side of 50 :rolleyes: Two e-bikes here too. My Wife will insist the Wisper is her's, but I take it out for exercise... to keep it fit and rolling healthy.... it's the err.... morally responsible thing to do. I don't enjoy it a bit...

    That's a similar speed to why I've now got six points on my driving licence :eek: Impressive average - according to where you were riding of course :) Gaz

    Getting an ebkie soon ! Possibly kalhoff

    Evening Dave :) I don't have any views on the Kalkhoff, but what I would say is try as many different bikes as you can before committing, and work out what's the best type of bike for what its intended use will be. Gaz

    Careless Wisper (or maybe Bittersweet Symphony!)

    The seven year old AAA batteries in the rear light were well past their best! :D:D

    Careless Wisper (or maybe Bittersweet Symphony!)

    Only a couple of hundred miles over the seven years, and charged every other month, so it's not really had a hard life. From a battery's perspective I don't know if that's necessarily a good or bad thing, or if there's anything I should do in particular to refresh or revitalise it. I presume a...

    Careless Wisper (or maybe Bittersweet Symphony!)

    So we popped over to Hampshire at the weekend and picked up the Wisper 705SE from Spokesman on here. Got it home and out the car, and had a cup of tea as I needed to unfold from being in the car for the best part of four hours. I gave it an obligatory once over, but really didn't need to as...
