Power Delivery 

Cadence Sensor vs. Torque Power Pack

Cadence Sensor

The cadence sensor activates power when you start pedaling forward and turns it off when you stop pedaling. It typically takes between a quarter and half a revolution for the power to engage. The sensor works by detecting the magnets in the crank turning forward, triggering the power when the pedals move.

Torque Power Pack

The torque sensor reacts to the pressure applied to the pedals, providing power in direct response to the force you're exerting. As you apply more pressure, the system delivers more power, and this occurs almost instantly.

How They Work

Cadence Sensor

The cadence sensor system uses a magnetic disc positioned on the right crank by the bottom bracket axle. This disc communicates with the bike to monitor pedal movement, switching the power on when the pedals are moving forward. If pedaling stops, the power shuts off immediately, without the need for brake cut-offs.

Torque Power Pack

The torque sensor measures the pressure being applied to the pedals. More pressure equals more power, which provides a more responsive and natural riding experience. This system allows for smooth, immediate power delivery, making hills, headwinds, and heavy loads easier to manage.

Features of the Torque Power Pack

  • Seamless Power Delivery: The Wisper Hybrid system integrates data from both the torque and cadence sensors, creating a smooth, continuous power flow.
  • Increased Range: The efficiency of the torque power pack allows for up to 30% greater range than the cadence-only system.
  • Responsive: The system adapts quickly to the rider’s speed, input, and riding style for a natural experience.
  • Starting Assistance: When starting from a standstill, especially on inclines, the system provides maximum power to help you get going, gradually reducing once you're moving.
  • Silent Running: The sine wave motor technology ensures a quiet operation, even during hill climbs.
  • Hill Starts: The system offers instant power when pressure is applied, making it easier to start on inclines or climb steep hills.
  • Natural Riding: The bike's response is smoother and more predictable, enhancing safety and comfort.
  • Reduced Wear: With the power delivered directly to the rear wheel, there's less strain on the chain and gears, leading to less wear.

Drive System

The Wisper Hybrid Torque Drive System ensures efficient and smooth power delivery to the rear wheel, enhancing the overall ride quality. With its dual-sensor system, the torque-powered models offer up to 30% more range than traditional cadence-based systems.

FAQ's

Do I need a license to ride an electric bike?

No. In the UK you must be over 14 years old to ride an electric bike however you don’t need a licence, tax or registration.

Are Electric Bikes Road Legal?

EAPC Rules: Electrically Assisted Pedal Cycle

To be road legal in the UK, electric bikes must comply with specific EAPC (Electrically Assisted Pedal Cycle) regulations:

Pedals Required: The bike must have pedals, and the rider must be able to use them to propel the bike.

Speed Limitation: The electric motor must not assist the bike beyond 15.5 mph (25 km/h).

Power Output: The motor's maximum power output must not exceed 250 watts.

Additionally, EAPC-approved e-bikes must include a device that displays either:

The motor's power output or manufacturer.

The battery voltage or maximum speed.

If
an electric bike exceeds the 250-watt power output or the 15.5 mph
speed limit, it cannot be used on UK public roads without obtaining type
approval, insurance, tax, a number plate, and passing an MOT.

Only
e-bikes that meet EAPC regulations can be used on UK public roads
without requiring tax, insurance, or registration. For more information
on EAPC regulations, visit: UK Government Electric Bike Rules.

If

only be used off-road on private land unless you secure the necessary
type approval, insurance, tax, number plate, and MOT. Please note that
you will be responsible for obtaining these requirements.
