Now available with a 'Full Throttle' optional upgrade!
Wisper have made special arrangements with the DVSA to have their bikes tested and Type Approved as 250W L1e Low Powered Mopeds.
This means that Wisper Traditional, Tailwind and Wayfarer hub motor driven bikes are now available with a fully legal twist grip or thumb throttle option, powering our bikes up to 15.5mph without the need to pedal. You do not need insurance or tax to ride these bikes and they can be ridden on all the places you can ride a standard pushbike.
Full throttle bikes are easier and safer to handle in slow moving traffic than pedal cycles and the use of the throttle improves your ability to accelerate away from traffic lights, perfect for commuting. They 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.
If you would like to order a Wisper Full-Throttle Electric Bike, please be sure to select the ‘Full Throttle’ variant when adding your new Wisper to your basket.
Please Note: Models will be Type Approved & certified by the DVLA to order. This process typically takes approx. 4-8 weeks from order, however should you require fast-tracked registration please contact us & we'll assist where possible.
