we can join with the US to trade with the EU, US style, and pay the EU 3% on tariff. Paying for access is the least painful option in the short term. In the long term, there are so many issues that require Europe and world wide integration, we'll be forced to join with another large bloc to...

the Raptor is a single speed. Fron the pictures, it looks like 16T (R)/45T (F) to me.

I didn't imply that there is something wrong with Donald Trump. He is different from the usual career politicians toeing the party lines all the time. Of course, if and when he becomes the republicans' nominee, he will have to toe the party line.

he is our own Donald Trump.

the Pound may lose its reserve currency status if the Scots leave. Mass selling of Sterling by the likes of George Sorros will force large devaluation and bring back interest rates to the 70s levels.

weird... mass suggestions or what? I was thinking about same specs since yesterday after watching the Gtech ad. If you can't beat them, join them, sort of thing. Would a brushed titanium frame increase or decrease the drooling effect on the under 40s?

I like the style of the Gtech very much. I ride a lightweight (not light assist) bike at the moment:

CP, take a look at the Woosh Petite: http://wooshbikes.co.uk/?petite woosh are in Southend.

electric scooters are officially banned in New York, pedelecs are tolerated. @Fingers I am all for more e-bikes, it's cheap transport for cities like London but I don't think that the market in London is about to 'explode' soon. The UK market for e-bikes remains stubbornly small. The vast...

that's your bike? wow!

this one may do it: http://wooshbikes.co.uk/?bigbear-ls

I know the pulling power of '50% off RRP' - Cyclamatic and Pro-Rider have done that for as long as I can remember. Many will agree that's clever marketing.

my concern is the drooling effect of the carbon belt on the under 40s. Take the carbon belt away, they won't want to know. Gates recommend a preload tension of 85lbs (a chain is tensioned to 2lbs) to prevent slippage of their belt. In turn, higher tension is translated into stiffer, heavier rear...

yes, possibly. If Gtech can get the under 40 into e-bikes then a lot of good will come of it.

you have to eat your 3 weetabix before you set off.

derf, if you are going to electrify a Brompton, take a look at Simon Rafferty's friction drive. Who knows, he may be willing to convert your Brompton for you. That would be the coolest e-bike in town. http://www.pedelecs.co.uk/forum/threads/experimenter.23447/#post-294411

I always find it worthwhile building your own bikes. You get exactly what you want and often for even less than woosh prices. Still, £81 is pretty much a new record. The downside is that you won't be happy for very long, there will always be a new project somewhere in the back of your mind...

Most people I know actually buy e-bikes do so because they need them. how old are you may I ask?

they put 10 in the available quantity box when posting the ad because that's the most they can put there for a 50p ad. If for one reason or another, they can't supply (eg the bikes actually come from another importer like erolling), they change the price up to unrealistic level to stop customers...

my way of opting out is to find a reason to vote for what I believe the losers side. In this referendum, I think the leave side may narrowly win in the first round then economic reality will soon dawn on most people, better to pay the EU for their light touch dictatorship than to live in a free...
