A few reasons on why we love electric bikes ...
Here is a nice article on why electric bikes are so great in an urban environment. The article features one of our Ottawa dealers (Ridemore).
One of our main philosophies is getting people out of cars and on to bikes … using bikes more as a vehicle rather than a ‘toy’. Here’s a great example of this from the UK! Check out the ‘Delivery with a Difference’ video by scrolling down the page to 'All Videos' …
The 2011 Wisper electric bikes are now in the country!! The core of the 2011 ebikes is the same, with the 350W Japanese motor and high quality purpose-built frame. However, there are a number of great upgrades including:
· new 15.5Ah batteries on the 705 and 905 bikes (a 10% increase in capacity);
· 6 levels of pedal assist, including a 'zero' level;
· a new manifold-style front connection box;
· front and rear lights switchable from the pedal assist panel;
· 1.75" kevlar reinforced electric-bike specific tire;
· a re-designed dropout; and
· a new chain guard and crank spider.
Best of all, the prices have dropped slightly from the 2010 prices!!
