The UK’s Ultimate Folding Electric Bike
The latest evolution of our flagship folding e-bike, the Tailwind 806, is more versatile than ever, allowing you to tailor it to your exact needs.
Designed for campers, caravanners, boating enthusiasts, commuters, and those with limited storage space, the Tailwind 806 offers the perfect blend of convenience and performance. Its ultra-low step-over height makes it ideal for shorter riders, while the adjustable seat post and handlebar stem ensure a comfortable fit for taller riders—suitable for heights ranging from 4'6" to 6'6"!
Built for long-distance reliability, the Tailwind 806 features a robust folding mechanism that eliminates frame twist, delivering a stable and smooth ride comparable to a traditional non-folding bike. Customise your ride with a choice of battery range, setup options, add-ons, and colours.
GO BEYOND THE FOLD
The Encore model offers a little more refinement, with high quality Schwalbe Big Ben road tyres, giving you additional comfort over rougher surfaces and excellent grip on smoother roads.
The benefit of a central double stand for stability when parked. Five levels of torque-controlled power and one cadence giving the 806 Encore rider smoothly delivered range when needed or effortless cruising power on longer runs.
Meet the Tailwind 806: Versatility Redefined
Inspired by the award-winning Traditional 806, the Tailwind 806 has been engineered to be more adaptable than ever, making it a truly versatile folding e-bike with light cargo capabilities.
With a redesigned rear rack and optional front rack, the Tailwind 806 offers increased cargo capacity. The rear rack has been designed to accommodate panniers, baskets, and child seats, while new bottle cage mounts provide the option to fit a standard water bottle holder or other accessories such as integrated bike locks.
Available in two drive options—Cadence Sensor (Tailwind 806) or Torque + Cadence Sensor (Tailwind 806 Encore)—alongside two battery sizes, three colours, and an off-road Venture Pack upgrade, the Tailwind 806 micro-cargo platform can be customised to suit any rider’s needs.
Venture Pack: Take the Road Less Travelled
For those who enjoy adventure, the Venture Pack Upgrade transforms both the Tailwind 806 and Tailwind 806 Encore into an off-road-ready e-bike. This upgrade includes:
✅ Schwalbe Marathon 365 Tyres – Designed for all-season grip, including cold, wet, and even snowy conditions, with added GreenGuard puncture protection.
✅ Tannus Armour Tyre Inserts – Provides 90% puncture prevention, run-flat capability, and extra rim protection.
✅ Alloy Front Rack – A durable black alloy rack with a 7kg load capacity, secured with a triple frame mount for added stability. (Also available separately for £49.99.)
Whether you're commuting, adventuring, or simply exploring, the Tailwind 806 is designed to adapt, perform, and go the distance.

Full Throttle optional add on (+£299) - CURRENT WAIT TIMES 6-8 WEEKS - UK LEGAL (Please note it will take between 2-8 weeks from your order date to have your bike tested by the DVSA and then delivered to you. Using your Wisper bike on throttle only will reduce your range by up to 30% and the TTP will not help increase range whilst you are using the throttle only. If your bike has been upgraded so it works on the throttle only, we still suggest pedalling when you are able to do so. Use the throttle only function when you need to rest or to help you pull away when setting off.
The use of a full throttle on an electric bicycle is legal in the UK on the condition that the bicycle has been tested, and approved by specific DVSA centres. The correct approval certification must have been issued by the DVSA. The approval certificate must show the bike’s make, model and frame number.
Without the correct certification electric bicycles with a throttle may not legally be used anywhere in the UK where the public has access. This includes private land where a footpath runs across or adjacent to the land.
How is the frame size measured?
Most E-bikes are measured from the centre of the crank to the base of the seat post tube. However, some E-bike manufacturers may measure their bikes differently depending on their style.
