Why we only use Rear Rack Batteries on our City and Trekking Bikes
All our city and trekking bikes have all been upgraded from the old fashioned “Seat Post Batteries” to the latest “Rear Rack Batteries” as specified by all the larger manufacturers. The “Seat Post Battery” was perfect several years ago when a large volume was needed to carry enough of the older, heavier, more inefficient cells to power an electric bike. The three main problems with seat post batteries are: 1. They substantially extend the bike’s wheelbase making storage more difficult on bike racks and in motorhomes etc. 2. The extra-long wheelbase makes the bicycle bike less nimble and more difficult to control. 3. The connectors are very near to the ground and can be shorted out in the wet cutting power to your bike. With modern, lightweight, high efficient battery cells we are able to reduce the weight and increase the power available in a battery. Our latest battery choice is 700Wh (20Ah). The weight placed on the rack over the rear wheel enhances rear wheel grip and bike control. Our racks have been designed to safely and securely carry your battery and still have the facility to add panniers, completely hiding the battery.
About the Wisper e-bike technology
Batteries: Wisper ebikes come with the choice of three batteries that fit all City and Trekking models without the need for any changes or adjustments to the bikes or batteries. Both battery options are provided with a two-year warranty. Our batteries are stowed in a specially developed rear rack shortening the wheel base, resulting in a safer, more nimble ride and raising the battery away from road spray. A short wheel base ensures improved safety and control, especially at speed. Battery Option 1: Standard 375Wh lithium battery has a range of up to 50 miles and takes 2.5 – 5 hours to charge. Battery Option 2: Long range 575Wh lithium battery has a range of up to 75 miles and takes 2 – 4 hours to charge. Battery Option 3: Mega range 700Wh cutting edge LG battery with deep sleep mode, has a range of up to 90 miles and takes 2.5 – 5 hours to charge. Controller: The controllers found on both Wisper ranges run on our own patented software. We have developed the software to offer the most natural of riding experiences. When combined with the Wisper cadence and torque sensors we are able to produce the smoothest, most responsive ebikes on the market – regardless of cost. Motor: Both Wisper SE and Wisper Torque bikes are driven by the latest brushless motors made by one of the largest ebike motor manufacturers in the world. The Wisper Torque’s ultra high torque brushless motor is extremely compact and very powerful. When used in conjunction with Wisper’s unique software the Wisper Torque’s motor is virtually silent.
