I prefer vertical axis designs myself, here's a few VAWT's for you to look at... Barrel Wind Turbine - YouTube Savonius 50 RPM - YouTube Vawt wind turbine - YouTube Eolico 5 Kw - Helix Wind - YouTube wind turbine vertical axis rotor - YouTube

I can see how they might do this. You'd have basic steering input from an rf controller, but then primary systems would sense tilt and and apply a steering overide to adjust the balance. The crank actually seems to be connected by belt to the rear wheel. Of course i'll only be impressed when...

Does anyone suppose this will apply to cyclists, or might this actual benefit the ebike industry? I'm thinking slower traffic in cities, less advantage of cars over bikes, greater the advantage of e-transport. Councils considering 20mph zones - UK News - MSN News UK

As a quick follow up, the fitted rear disc "turned out nicely". The panniers had to be fitted further up the main stem, but there's a hole provided for that. Incidentally, the BURISCH are now back in stock. ;-) "Stock NOW IN! Don't delay, we have very limited stock, and these will go...

Could be a play on words. Motion on land and in through the sea. If fuel were no problem, then he could travel from A to B and not matter what was in-between. There again he is a physicist, apparently.

If this was done by someone in a country unfriendly to the US, would they have expected this extradition? Let's say a Chinese, or north Korean student hack'd a US gov computer, would the US demand his extradition, or would this have lead to a diplomatic incident? If anything this chap...

Love it!! Any idea on the watts? After all there's no pedel assist and its riders tend towards the portly ;)

One debate following the program... Force cyclists to register their bikes and get a licence before using the roads With a BBC documentary sticking its oar into the bike v car debate Ashley Winston says he’d like to see cyclists adhering to the same standards forced on motorists… By...

Now this looks interesting, although i'd like the option to change the crank if that was available. I'm not sure why you'd need a new controller, as this sensor would surely be a direct replacement for the pedlec sensor. EBike Crank Torque Sensor - BMSBATTERY As an extra thought, if...

Are you saying your choice came down to a $4 item... what about import duty on these purchases? Also, how much will it cost to have the wheel made? There again you could opt for a uk source with delivery in a reasonable time frame. eg 36V 500W E-Bike Electric Bicycle Rear Wheel Motor...

Anyone spotting this at night, must surely think its something out of E.T ;-)

Those bikes are naturally going to be heavier than conventional e-bikes, so i'm guessing the motors are a bit more substantial than our 250w. Is there any word on the speeds these things are limited to, or does anything go? Wow! The future of electric transport, don't you just love it? ;)

Just a quick word on the rear disc mounts. I decided to take a punt on the following:: Bicycle brake disc rotor 160MM with 6 bolts & Wheel Mount | eBay It arrived the next day and was a perfect fit for the existing motor thread. Worth it for the screw on wheel mount alone, which is described...

After i posted the question, i did some research, as you do. It doesn't have the circle of 6 screws you mention, however the motor does have an unused screw thread, I'm not sure on the size. But as you'll see in the photos, it is right where you would mount the disc caliper. It might also need...

"- New 7 speed rear gear cassette and 7-speed shifter, for better cadence" I think its almost certain from the statement above, that the new gears will starts lower than 14t, and i can't see a problem with them sourcing 11t. Also the ebay link says the pics are for the 2012 version, and...

Looks alike an opportunity to me. AA for electric vehicles anyone? It might start with a site where you registered your e-bike and maybe received a decal to stick on your bike. A standard logo, which e-bikers everywhere could look out for. All these registered users might lead to a...

On this point about a trend not being obvious and therefore undermining the effect of a trend, it might be useful for the e-transport industry to come up with a single badge or label, which all e-transport could be seen with. I'm thinking of the way computers sport badges which say 'intel on...
