Full Throttle eBikes from Wisper<\/h1>\n

Why We Offer Wisper Full Throttle eBikes<\/strong><\/h4>\n
    \n
  1. Full Throttle eBikes offer a quick, eco friendly and cost efficient option for city commuters at a time when everyone is looking to save on rising fuel and transport costs.<\/li>\n
  2. Full Throttle eBikes offer commuters better control and enhanced safety when moving slowly in traffic.<\/li>\n
  3. Full throttle eBikes offer immediate power when accelerating especially useful at traffic lights or on hills.<\/li>\n
  4. Full Throttle eBikes allow a rider to \u201ctake a breather\u201d and cool down from time to time during a journey, particularly useful when commuting in hot weather.<\/li>\n
  5. Full Throttle eBikes make cycling even more inclusive, enabling those of us with for example impaired movement to enjoy the benefits and freedom eBikes bring.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Fully Legal in the UK<\/strong><\/h4>\n

    Continuing our journey of pro-active leadership, innovation and progression within the e-bike industry we are proud to be able to offer fully UK legal, full throttle eBikes that will power our bikes up to 15.5mph without pedalling.<\/p>\n

    As well as making our bikes safer and more easily controlled at low speeds, offering faster acceleration from stand still, Wisper full throttle electric bicycles make cycling even more inclusive than ordinary eBikes, enabling those that need a little extra help when discovering, or returning to the joys and freedom cycling offers.<\/p>\n

    How It Works<\/strong><\/h4>\n

    Once we receive your order for a\u00a0Wisper full throttle bike<\/strong>\u00a0we arrange to have your bike tested by the DVSA and Type Approved as an L1e in the category 250W LPM (250Watt Low Powered) Moped.\u00a0 This can take between 2 and 8 weeks as the bike has to be taken to a specially approved MVSA centre for the Type Approval tests to be carried out.\u00a0 The tests are to make sure our standard eBike is safe and complies to current EAPC (Electrically Assisted Pedal Cycle) regulations.\u00a0 Once these tests have been completed we are presented with a British National Type Approval, Minister\u2019s Approval Certificate bearing your bike\u2019s frame number, this ensures the certificate can only be used in conjunction with your specific Wisper bike. The certificate must be kept in a safe place just like an MOT certificate although we and the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency will keep a record of your Bike\u2019s Type Approval.<\/p>\n

    Unlike an MOT Certificate, the Type Approval Certificate lasts for the lifetime of the bike and does not need to be renewed.<\/p>\n

    Full throttle eBikes will continue to work in exactly the same way a standard eBike works when the throttle is not used. The rider only uses the throttle when needed, it will not effect any other standard EAPC function.<\/p>\n

    Exclusions<\/strong><\/h4>\n

    To obtain Type Approval bikes must be fitted with front and rear lights operated together on one switch. Because the Tailwind Trail, Tailwind City and Wayfarer Mountain do not have lights these bikes cannot yet be Type Approved.\u00a0 We are working on a solution and hope to offer these bikes with a full throttle by mid 2023.<\/p>\n

    The Regulations<\/strong><\/h4>\n

    L1e electric bikes are a sub-group of Low Powered Moped that meets the criteria laid down in the Electrically Assisted Pedal Cycle Regulations 1983 (SI 1983 No. 1168) as amended by SI 2015 No. 24. The requirements are that the vehicle:<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Be fitted with pedals by means of which it is capable of being propelled<\/li>\n
    2. Be fitted with no motor other than an electric motor, which has a maximum continuous rated power, which does not exceed 250 watts and cannot propel the vehicle when it is travelling at more than 15.5 mph<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      In essence<\/strong>, our bikes, when Type Approved, can be ridden legally on roads and private land within the UK at speeds of up to 15.5mph using just the throttle.<\/p>\n

      Costs and Warranty<\/strong><\/h4>\n

      Anyone can take their Wisper bike to an approved MVSA centre and apply for Type Approval. The cost of the test and certification is \u00a355.00 which is payable to the DVSA and needs to be paid at the time of booking the test appointment.\u00a0 If you chose to have your bike Type Approved yourself, please contact us with the TA details and we will for a fee of \u00a345.00 upgrade your bike\u2019s software, this has to be done physically at our Kent HQ. If you would like your warranty to be extended to cover your bike with a full throttle we will make a further charge of \u00a345.00.\u00a0 This does not extend the time line of your warranty which will remain at 24 months from the time you originally purchased your Wisper bike.<\/p>\n

      We offer the full TA certification service for a fee of \u00a3200.00 on top of the price of a new Wisper bike or \u00a3250.00 on a used Wisper bike.\u00a0 We only offer this service on Wisper bikes as we know they are fully legal EAPCs.<\/p>\n

      Our charges include the test fee, upgrading the software on the bike, one of our technicians driving the bike to the test centre, waiting whilst the test is done and bringing the bike back to our HQ in Kent. Importantly it also includes, a \u00a345.00 charge to extend our two year warranty to include full throttle riding. We charge the extra \u00a350 on used Wisper bikes to service the bike before we take it to the test centre.<\/p>\n

      If you are intending to take your Wisper bike out of the UK, it is your responsibility to check it may be used legally at your destination. We can for a \u00a355.00 fee re-restrict your bike for you whilst you are out of the UK and de-restrict it for you when you get home, this work has to be done physically at our HQ in Kent.<\/p>\n

      All prices include VAT.<\/p>\n
