The Raleigh RM7 Wisp was a small-wheel shopper style moped introduced in April 1967 and discontinued in September 1969. It used Mobylette running gear but had an in-house frame based on the Raleigh RSW16 bicycle, an attempt to profit from the small-wheel boom that followed the success of the Moulton bicycle. It had 16 by 2 inch wheels and a single speed, and was finished in Fiesta Blue or Spanish Gold. It was first planned under the name R16 Powerride before being renamed Wisp for production.
