What bunkum. The threat of Russian colonialism, as you describe that country's attempts to protect itself, materialised in 2008. That's when Putin finally lost patience with the four years of determined US attempts to expand NATO to Russia's borders at Georgia and Ukraine and launched a...

I'm sorry to learn that Danidl, my best wishes for a full recovery soon. At least you'll be able to enjoy the car all the more when you feel better. I see Biden is going to spend three times as long in the Republic as in the north, sensible. Running for a second term as he intends when he's...

Indeed, I've long been a fan of pursuing ammonia as an answer, as you say, everything going for it. .

The reason is that the start point speed at which a powered vehicle becomes legally a motor vehicle is 25 kph (15.5 mph) in many jurisdictions. A pedelec only power assisted up to 15.5 mph when it cuts out can be exempted from being considered a motor vehicle and remain in law a bicycle. At...

In fact there is also (3): The fixed fork model suits any size of rider. The suspension fork model means shorter riders can find the handlebars too high. Personally I've never felt the need for front suspension on a folder, just adds weight and does very little useful. .

Definitely looks like a Tubolita. They use Presta valves but their inserts are not replaceable as they are on some Presta tubes. .

Bike Radar don't like Presta valves at all and believe they should be scrapped. I agree: Information Link .

Neither of whom I ever supported in any way. I speak of socialism, not enforced Marxist or Trotskyite communism. Enforcing any political system is fundamentally wrong and ensures it will not last. The mistake made by Stalin and Mao and still being attempted worldwide by the USA, using...

Might be some confusion about having such a notice. There is no current law requiring that notice is displayed, it's just for self protection to show that the seller takes the law seriously in the event of any prosecution. i.e. Showing they are doing their best to comply. But the law stated...

I'm not being provocative. Both Russia and China have some decades recent experience of socialism, but in the impatient form of enforcing it, rather than having it by common consent. Obviously a mistake as both now know to some extent. The current excellent Nordic model was only arrived at...

Given Europe's socialist leanings they are certainly better natural partners. But this new world order issue is about the USA's refusal to accept that any form of socialism can exist. China, now with Russian support, is determined to change that attitude to one of acceptance that socialism has...

Latest: Any peace talks with Ukraine must focus on “creating a new world order,” Kremlin has today said as Russian troops made gains in Bakhmut. Russian foreign minister Sergei Lavrov said: “Any negotiation needs to be based on taking into account Russian interests, Russian concerns.” Agence...

Neat job, I hope it is successful for you. When I'd completed my Q bike I fitted a similar very loud alarm. One day in the bike stand by the front door of my local Sainsburys I set it off by accident. Mine had a fiddly button sequence to cancel it and I was struggling to stop the din that it...

Schrader valves do not have a high pressure problem, this is just a part of bicycle mythology, the only place where Presta valves are used. The Schrader valve is used on virtually all automobile tires and motorcycle tires and most wider rimmed bicycle tires. In addition to tube and tubeless...

Don't worry. The throttle law and permissions is in such a tangle here that no-one in authority fully understands it so will never prosecute a throttle alone, even if illegally fully working. Almost** the only things one need worry about is having an overrated motor or assistance beyond 15.5...

Yes if the pedelec was made or bought after 9th May 2003. That's because as an EU member it was always illegal here too from 10th November 2003, that fact just concealed due to a mistake by the DfT in 2003. The "Grandfather Rights" is just a local ruling, a ministerial order permitting the law...

I prefer Schrader because it is universal on everything from bicycles to heavy transporters so pumps always available. The inserts can always be changed too. I've even drilled out Presta rims to swap to Schrader tubes. But it's personal preference thing since both can do the job. .

There's no safe way with knowledgable police officers, it all depends on how harsh the penalties are there. France has now gone very tough indeed on illegal pedelecs, earning a fine of up to a staggering €30,000 with a prison sentence also possible and a loss of driving licence for a while...
