No that's a good point, we will try as soon as it stops raining!

Hi Stuart, please read the email I sent you over the weekend... as promised saying someone in support would get back to you today. Adrian did get back to you this morning, he has just told me that the first email he forgot to paste in the address in the US, he has since sent you that address...

I will dig up the paperwork but my information came from The Light Electrical Vehicle Association Europe. (LEVA EU)

I completely agree, vfr400 hence my question in the thread title. We build the bikes and cant quite get a handle on it. We had both bikes here this morning, the mid motor bike has the adjusted software bringing it up to 100Nm according to the motor manufacturers. It does feel more powerful than...

A question for you tech gurus.... The Machinery Directive tells us that we cannot use a battery with a maximum Voltage of more than 50V. When our 43V battery is fully charged it reaches a tad over 50V so we are within the rules. When we see systems advertised as 48V are these actually 43V...

Hi Ebiker, sorry to have not answered your question as well as Woosh, I misunderstood. (Thanks Woosh) The production model of the mid drive bike will develop 100Nm, the hub drive will develop 50Nm so the torque on both bikes is about the same. All the best, David

On the hub yes. All the best, David

It was a terrible blow Soundwave we had expected to sell at least £10 millions worth in the first few months. But hey ho life goes on!! All the best, David

I’d love to give you such control over settings but I’m now not allowed to thanks to EN15194 2017! ☹ You did! We have sold about £350,000 worth of them and are selling off the last dozen or so at almost half price. They are a superb bike at a silly price now.

I can do this for under £3k, full carbon. E8000. All the best, David

Its not scientific ebiker99, although it should be!! The power is the same but because of where the torque is measured 50Nm hub is the same roughly as 100Nm centre. All the best, David

Thanks Neal, I’m with you, I far prefer the look and balance of the hub drive bike. the standard battery is 450Wh DLG with an upgrade option to 700Wh Samsung for the more intrepid explorers! The motor is a new model from Shengli, it’s great! All the best, David

Ooops! Thanks Tony! All the best, David

Thanks that’s all very interesting, the Wayfarers both run 43V systems and the difference between 36V and 43V is huge, more power but less stress on the system. It just feels more “comfortable”.

Cheers Steve! They are the same in terms of power the 50Nm Hub drive packs the same punch as the 100Nm Hub drive. All the best, David

I agree Kirstin, price is probably the reason but I was surprised, I expected the numbers to be the other way around or at leat 50/50. The point that's intrigued me the most is the reluctance of the dealers to even try the Hub drive version. But when they try it they buy it.

We are continuing to visit our fantastic Wisper dealers all over the country demonstrating the new MID drive and HUB drive Wisper Wayfarers, collecting orders for delivery in February/March. As far as we can ascertain we seem to be the only company selling almost exactly the same bike with a...

Hi Stu, we don't have the174mm axle in stock now. However if you would like to drop me an email, I can send you details of site in the USA that will have them. All the best, David

Hi Crockers, we may introduce a hub drive after we have done extensive testing. There are a few 5 speed ebike hubs available now that are sold as being strong enough to take 100Nm, in the mean time deraileure gears seem to be the best bet on the Mid Drive bikes. We have discovered with our less...
