    Clacking noise - Kalkhoff Impulse 2 motor

    Unfortunately, I suspect that only a small percentage of the ebike buying public look at this forum, therefore they will not suffer any significant damage to their sales. What I don't understand is why they are refusing to repair the bike when it is still within the warranty period. Have they...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    What's the latest forecast from BetFred, Paddypower and Foxy from Foxy Bingo? The IN campaign seem to be quoting opinion from these institutions more frequently now that the official polls signal a significant lead for leave.

    The Best Mobile Telephone Ever Made for only £9.10

    Just in case anyone is on the lookout for an emergency phone to carry with them on long rides. I don't like taking my smart phone, especially if it's hissing it down. http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/refurbished-nokia-3310-9-10-aliexpress-hilid-electronic-2462012

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I think you underestimate people. A dismissive attitude insinuating that people are too thick to understand why we should remain, helps the Exit campaign. All I've seen in the live TV debates, particularly the one on ITV, is screeching, threats and personal insults from the In campaign. At...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I guess the, "feeling" as to whether we will remain or quit is different in each area of the country. I see about a ratio of 10:1 posters in favour of leaving the EU and when out and about, overhearing people's conversations, they nearly all seem anti EU. The same in my work place, a very big...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    During the last week, I see that in addition to Anthony Bamford (JCB), James Dyson is now backing an exit from the EU. I thought that the response to Dyson's decision by the In Campaign was very strange: "Britain Stronger In Europe said: "James Dyson wanted the UK to join the Euro. He was wrong...

    new electric bike project on Kickstarter

    I think carbon frames give a more pleasant ride than aluminium. I find that aluminium frames are too rigid and transmit every bump in the road into the rider via seat and handlebars. Carbon on the other hand is more forgiving. It reminds me of riding the older steel framed bikes in terms of comfort.

    new electric bike project on Kickstarter

    Are you using an optical HRM on the wrist band? How do you find its performance? The reason that I ask is because I use a Garmin Forerunner with an optical HRM when running and occasionally when cycling. I find that it outputs HR with reasonable accuracy, but is slow to react to HR changes due...

    New Top Gear was Pants

    Absolutely. The new show needs to be a complete reinvention with no trace of the old format left. It worked for Clarkson May and Hammond, but it isn't working for Evans and his co-hosts.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I a I agree and I recognise that I am partly responsible. I've said all that I need to say, some of it in terms that I'm not entirely happy with, so I'll keep out of this thread for a while.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    It's telling that you decide the conversations that aren't worth having are those where you have lied about what I have written and have subsequently been called out.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Absolutely. They do it because there is no logical answer to the questions which mass uncontrolled immigration raises. I'm not going to get into some sort of racial Top Trumps game, but I am pretty confident that I have done more to encourage diversity in the work place than most who have...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I believe you initiated this decent into trading insults by alleging that I was a racist. It's fools such as you who devalue the term by spewing the accusation all over the place every time something doesn't suit your agenda. Anyway, I really can't be bothered with you any more. Something of...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    That's rich coming from another who has lied and mis-quoted me. I invited you to provide evidence of what you were alleging, but of course you could not and that was because you weren't telling the truth.

    Well you have proven yourself to be a liar, so anything more that you have to say can be disregarded. (removed by admin)

    No I did not say those words within the quotation marks. You are a liar. Do not continue to lie and misquote what I have said.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I would like you to qualify that statement with hard evidence of racism on my part. If you are unable to, which I suspect will be the case, then my opinion of you is that you are a **** You have no right to level that accusation at me. That's just my opinion, but of course, I could be wrong...

    Some claim asylum. They are then in the system which takes years to achieve nothing except soak up money, health care and housing.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Lets be clear here, the only thing these people are desperate for is to suck up UK resources and money from the public purse like voracious vacuum cleaners. They are already in a place of safety in France, but that's not good enough, their sense of entitlement drives them onward and into acts...
