I'd be nervous about that as it doesn't seem to have an FFP rating on the website I can find. The only one I can recommend is a 3m 9322 (or other 3M FFP2 aka P2 disposable with identical design - there may be one). I get them for about £1.50 on eBay; they've got excellent fit - which as...

I'm afraid the Respros are all P1 so no good for diesel particulates. P2 is the minimum for diesel.

Sorry to be a pedant - you've been wonderful in giving me advice in the past, so I hope you won't hold this against me in the future for pointing out the position in law: 45 Encouraging or assisting an offence believing it will be committed A person commits an offence if— (a) he does an act...

I agree if it's a 25kph bike it's not likely to be a problem, because UK police don't have the resources or inclination to investigate anything like that unless someone's really caused/causing trouble like injuring someone else. But if there were trouble then by lying he'd be exposing himself to...

Good stuff, thanks It's a very basic stereo, nothing fancy, it's this one. http://www.pioneer-car.eu/eur/products/mvh-280dab Yes I think you're right - it's just that my car has funny electronics which get unhappy after not much drain - so I didn't really describe the whole picture. Battery...

There is often wonderful electronics advice on this forum, I know a lot of you are naturals on that (perhaps why you've gravitated to ebikes!), and so I wanted to ask for advice on an un-ebike-related matter on which I need a bit of help. Just bought a new car stereo, and after I fitted it...

Two things here. Firstly BMSbattery prices are about 20% greater if one's not logged into the website via a username. Secondly only the built wheels, not the motors, cost £100 to send. I bought a wheel from a Chinese manufacturer and every single spoke was loose. That's not a wheelbuild. Getting...

https://www.paisleyfreight.com look competitive - I wonder if a local bike shop might be willing to give some boxes (I imagine they might be a pain to get rid of ordinarily).

Where did you get the elastic velcro strap? Would you have pics please? Does your setup protect the underneath as well as the top of your battery? I ask because I'm deeply paranoid about exposing mine to water! Thanks

In France recently a bike shop owner specialising in ebikes, and increasing his rental fleet, told me about a German businessman, who as of this moment has a fleet of several thousand ebike hire bikes, having started from just a few, now hired out of hotels and the like. I think it'd be worth...

P.S. Try to just say the seller refused to fix the part if you can possibly avoid getting into discussions of proof with the credit card company, because the latter don't always know the minutiae of contract law - nor do the financial ombudsman staff...

Reasonable likelier-than-not proof of purchase (including credit card statement) is what's required, not a receipt. The seller's unreasonable obstacle was a breach of contract. You can claim the cost of all the parts and work back from your credit card provider. Just ring them up and explain the...

I'd like to add that my Bafang motors sometimes resisted freewheeling, heavily, when wired up with power but miswired. It's important to note that sometimes the plastic connectors in a kit with the various coloured wires stuck in them, aren't consistently lined up on the male and female sides...

I wish. I don't think Britons have a sound enough tendency to civic virtue to support a rental scheme. Germans maybe. We're too selfish to look after the batteries properly. They'd all get broken in a few months. Plus public liability insurance would be very costly owing to flammability of...

Would be great if Justin (or a BMSBattery or an Insat) could make the empty cases to pop 18650s into.

That woman had the patience of Job...

I know my train company (Govia Thameslink) won't allow folding bikes past the barriers unfolded - in fact will only allow 'fully folding compact folding bikes', i.e. Bromptons and any knockoffs. I know the Bromptons have tiny rollers which help with moving between barrier and train, but, most...

Oh dear yes I think I know what you mean. Do you mean your stem is too short? This one is available for modern bikes. Also you could go Dutch with the handlebars & seat.

LOL It's the leg length which is your governing dimension, not your taste in 'hideous adjustible stem;) Seriously you can violate your taste and not get a knee injury. You'll survive the blow to your pride ;-) I've pasted below a couple of ok-looking adjustible stems. While I'm at it - this is a...

Post a photograph here of the controller and its wires,and someone might be able to advise on a replacement. Why do you want to replace it?
