You can use rim brakes at the rear. The 85TS rim has V braking band. However, you need to know that v brakes require more maintenance (use softer rubber compound, keep the pads parallel to the rim and centered) to avoid excessive wear. When the bike is motorised, people tend to ride faster which...

It should be 230rpm. I need to test it to be sure. The demobike does not have the throttle. I need to install the throttle to test the maximum speed derestricted.

Current control. There is no jerkiness of stepped power when you change your pedalling or change the assist level but best to have a word with Andy. I am rubbish at describing how the bike responds. As with all kits, the best way to find out is to test it!

Introducing the new 85TS kit: Only 3 components to install: the motorwheel, the battery and the LCD. The motorwheel in this kit is state of the art as far as conversion kits go. Inside the cassette freehub body, the maker has integrated a torque sensor, a pedal assist sensor and a speedometer...

These backdoors are inherent to all ARM chips. As the chip executes one instruction per cycle, they have in one word the opcode and the data. The number of possible opcodes run into millions. Not all opcodes are documented in the chip's manuals, leaving the possibilities of using some for...

Trump won't want to test his theory in court. His DOGE and deportation program have already run into many injunctions.

Trump has good and bad ideas but where he fails is he is so one- sided. We all want peace, democracy, pay less tax, good healthcare, good education, fair trade, small deficits, smaller central government, less waste, less crimes, stop illegal migrants, stop abuses of social security etc trump is...

Du bist ein Dummkopf! My German teacher used to tell me. Ukraine's sovereignty is a side issue. Stopping Putin winning is the plan.

Trump issued guidelines for the use of autopen by his office. Does that imply that his office has used the signing machine? As far as I understand, after the documents are signed, they must be filed to goverment register to make them official. The documents come to force in the last step. Some...

Virtually all US presidents in my lifetime including Trump himself used autopen too. It seems to me that Trump got upset when he went to the DoJ to see progress on chasing down his enemies and found nothing to speak of so he just makes up another controversy to vent his frustration. Nothing will...

Mobile phones electronics is much better built compared to what you see on the bikes used by the food deliverers. I think also the risk and potential damage rise with the number of cells and exponentially with the capacity of the batteries. If you go by the pictures of those bike fires, they are...

Trump still wants to go after the bidens. He 'cancels' Joe Biden’s pardons. Ridiculous or what?

It's no longer hypothetical, Putin may soon have to intervene in Bosnia to protect Milorad Dodik. Have you also seen the public protest in Hungary against Victor Orban? Putin may have to send in troops too.

Have you tried Google AI Studio? Pretty excellent stuff and free at the moment for up to 1 million tokens. https://aistudio.google.com/

Misinformation again. https://healthmanagement.org/c/hospital/News/european-court-doctors-role-in-covid-19-vaccine-administration Dr Frajase wanted the eu to withdraw marketing authorisations for covid vaccines, arguing that administration of the vaccines would make him liable for adverse...

Beter than before I bet. If you doubt climate change is real, do watch BBC Panorama on the fire in California shown again this afternoon. One spark from the power line was enough to set fire to bone dry vegetation because of the lack of rain for months before the fire. One frequent phrase each...

Renault (cars) have a simple battery fire fighting system. They fit a funnel to the battery compartment with an adhesive cover. If fire breaks out, firefighters would just flood the battery compartment with plain water. The system kills the fire in a few minutes. I suppose it could be adapted...

so you reckon a one month ceasefire will be agreed by Monday? It's possible but I doubt it. I watched Putin's presser yesterday and I am not convinced that Putin is ready. Maybe another month. Trump wants the Nobel prize for peace. He may get it if he solves Ukraine. In his 'art of the deal', he...

50,000 attendees, hotels, restaurants, airports, business conferences etc. The town of belem got given once in a lifetime a lot of money to build up its infrastructure so it used some of it to build a short stretch of motorway linking belem with a nearby satellite town. A lot more money was...

Is it OK that some billionaires buy elections for a particular candidate? That's what happened in the USA because it's allowed in their electoral laws. In the UK and many other countries, there are electoral laws to limit spending and even fact check. Imagine you are a candidate without deep...
