    Hi - I have a few questions about what to choose?

    That's just the law. You can build a vehicle but to use it on public roads, your vehicle needs to be licensed. To have your ebike considered as an electrical assisted cycle which allows access to public cycle paths without insurance number plate and wearing of a helmet, you need as I said, a...

    The Anything Thread that is Never off subject.

    You've all heard about Trump's court case brought by E Jean Carroll. Trump's lawyers applied to the Appeal Court to dismiss the case against him on, wait for it, presidential immunity! His application was rejected.

    Hi - I have a few questions about what to choose?

    An ebike is a motor vehicle. You can only ask for it to be considered as a normal push bike if it is conform to standard set in EN19514. A certificate is required for that and your supplier should provide it. Otherwise, your bike is considered a motorbike, you need type approval or submit...

    Hi - I have a few questions about what to choose?

    If you ride on private land, you only have to answer to the land owner. If you ride on a public road, path or land, you have to answer to the law. You can't plead ignorance oe just say no to the police. The basic law is that your electric bike must have a certificate of conformity to EN15194...

    to be fair to BJ, his legal bill is tiny in comparison to Trump who takes every opportunity to make his case worse (like in the E. Jean Carroll case) so he can claim to be victimised by Biden and all the left leaning media like ABC, CNN, CBS etc. His potential bills will run into hundreds of...

    The Anything Thread that is Never off subject.

    The government of Florida is trying to pass a new law to allow taxpayers' money to be used to pay for political legal costs, ie Trump's legal fees. The amount is fairly modest, 5 million dollars. If it passes, MAGA will try next time to increase it. I wonder sometimes if democracy is the right...

    it's also interesting to note that for the traditional registered republicans, their most important issues are the economy, immigration, foreign policy. For MAGA, immigration tops the list, then tax, then the economy, then the role of catholics in society. On this, it's clear that traditional...

    Did anyone follow the GOP primary in NH? Nikki Haley did OK-ish, losing 44% to 55% to Trump. The next battle ground is her home state, SC. It's interesting to watch the left leaning channel MSNBC talking up Haley's chances and advise her campaign team how to beat Trump. The problem for Haley is...

    all the Chinese kits are unlocked, the LCDs are set at 25kph by default. You are the 'manufacturer' in the eye of the law, you can break the law and change the speed limit if you so wish, it's your responsibility. The instructions of how to do that is in the LCD manual.

    non-folder to fit in the boot?

    take a 10kg road bike, add a TSDZ2 (3.8kgs) and a 480WH bag battery (1.2kgs), a folding handlebar and you'll get an 15kg-16kg e-bike capable of 50-55 miles on assisted riding which is easy to carry up the stairs on your shoulder, can be kept in a corridor, and costs under a grand. Alternatively...

    non-folder to fit in the boot?

    if derestricted, all the Woosh hub motors can do 21mph on 26" tyres, 22mph on 700C tyres. A lot of younger riders can pedal much faster than that on wheels with cassette, the maximum speed is whatever you can pedal at but beyond the speed that I indicated, assistance from the motor is reducing fast.

    I thought it was Trump who started China bashing as soon as he got sworn in with America first?

    Trump lost last time with 47% of the votes. I think he will have even fewer votes in November.

    he's still more lucid than Trump on most days. Trump still uses block capitals to make his point as if it's a proof that he's anti-woke. This is what he posted on Truth Social yesterday: "A PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES MUST HAVE FULL IMMUNITY, WITHOUT WHICH IT WOULD BE IMPOSSIBLE FOR HIM/HER...

    there are explanations why Trump seems to be ahead in the polls in the 5 swing states (Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin that Biden won last time), but I remember following the 2020 US elections with polls swinging wildly depending who run the polls. This particular poll...

    I'm pretty sure that Trump will beat other republican candidates in the caucusses and possibly the primaries but would be surprised if Trump beats Biden. It's more likely that Biden gets a second term than Trump does. Trump's court cases will lose him at least 1 out of 4 republican voters, more...
