    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Paper money exists for a long time. The move to digital currencies is just a more convenient way for accountancy. The BoE balance sheet won't charge because of such introduction. The main issue for the British economy has been and still is low productivity compared to the EU.

    before getting a folding MiRide as a fat 6ft 4ins man, is there something cheaper or better?

    your weight is a problem for frames, especially those with a mid-frame fold like the Rambletta. I would suggest you look into converting a bike. You have then better choice of a strong frame to start with. As you are not far from us, please pop in to try some bikes to get a better idea what suits.

    Brompton q70 motor

    the Q70 for the Brompton has high speed and high reduction ratio. That explains why it climbs so well despite its small size and weight. The reverse side of the coin is that it does not run well sensorless because the rotor spins so fast making it difficult for the controller's CPU to keep it in...

    Brompton q70 motor

    The Lishui controller with default firmware can't run the Q70 properly. Also, 18A is too much for the Q70, it needs to be limited to 14A-15A.
