Does the sensor have a little light on ? If you turn the display on , level 0, then turn the pedal (will need to lift back wheel up) does the light come on as each magnet passes the sensor

Simplest conversion ever. Swap the front wheel, fit the snap on PAS, connect up to the KT controller (also in battery bag). Seems very good, more powerful than I thought, less than 4 kg added including battery. Easy to pedal with no assist. Redid my little test circuit Unbelievably (and...

Yes, that video is cropped so it looks a bit more hairy than it actually was - I did ring my bell, but we were doing 7 or 8 mph up a steep hill, whatever they did I wouldn't have crashed into them

Definitely easier than these fit cyclists,.braving North York Moor hills Despite my goals gradually changing from max speed to trying to use minimise assist, there is no way I could do a 25.mile ride with 2000ft of ascent in the North York Moors with lots of 15% , 20% and 25% hills without...

A couple of examples of not brilliant driving, useful just to have the camera running : won't report either of these (second one cut in to cyclist two ahead of me to avoid head on). Second one felt a lot worse but video seems opposite Can easily pick out numberplate Feel like as many...

Just converted a 12.5kg folding bike, 1.6kg front hub motor (akm-74sx) + KT controller &display+ 36v 10ah Woosh battery bag( 1.8kg) Just makes it light to lug around stash away & get out. I'm not so sure the extra weight of an electric bike (or bigger battery) makes that much difference...

Yes, I do think parliament should represent the people. In one way it would be quite funny if Reform polls 15 % and gets no seats (my political views probably align quite closely with Mick Lynch ) but it's not democratic. Their percentage of MPs should represent their percentage of voters and...

The other thing is I think DIY converted ebikes are less of a target

Like most of Spain (From earlier link) "Spain contains within it more than 505,000 1km squares. But only 13% of them are lived in. This means that the “lived density” for Spain is in fact 737 people per km², rather than 93. So even though the settlement pattern appears sparse, people are...

So you agree with lived population density as a more meaningful measure ?

Everywhere I have looked has Netherlands having a higher population density than England - although lived population density is a more meaningful measure ...

People coming here on small boats is a tiny % of net migration - there is an interesting study here - the vast, vast majority is legal migration. https://migrationobservatory.ox.ac.uk/resources/briefings/long-term-international-migration-flows-to-and-from-the-uk/ It also makes the point that...

https://uk.apemans.com/products/action-camera-a79 IMVIP reduces price to £31.50 including delivery + £6.99 class 10 64GB micro SD card. I just mounted it on the handlebars and turn on the image stabilization (2.7k) - 3GB file produced every 15 mins - connect it via USB to my bike battery - not...

Surely the French could say the same ? Is it only countries bordering brutal regimes that should house asylum seekers ? That doesn't seem very fair.

That link seems very different to how you were characterising it : "In June 2022, an ECHR judge used that power to temporarily stop the first Rwanda flight, until the migrants on board had had a chance to put their case to British judges. That delay in the flight allowed the migrants to take...

Which foreign court was this ? Please could you link to the judgement?

Why don't you convert your own from a suitable donor bike using generic parts that can be easily repaired or replaced ? For twist and go throttle (without pedalling) legally you have to get it approved at a DVLA testing site. Wisper do that as an option on their bikes...

Oh yes, forgot that one, I've done that on my current conversion

I have got most of that, it's only by experimenting that you find out. I would probably start off with a slightly higher spec donor bike with air forks if I was doing it again. I wasn't really sure I needed full sus for road / light trail (though I would definitely consider for MTB use). I...
