    ebike law changes coming....

    Where is this directive coming from? The EU? Seeing as the UK will no longer be members of the EU this may well be a non-story!

    The "death" of the car, (as we know it)

    Isn`t there a Turbine setup at the entrance to Strangford Lough (Down coast) that runs off the in/out currents? Ok, more here for the North coast in 2018 http://www.irishnews.com/business/2016/02/09/news/work-on-massive-tidal-energy-park-to-commence-in-2018-411706/

    Where does this 3 hours come into the equation? Wouldn`t the PEM be charging the li-ion in situ as and when required?

    Bbs01 power cutting in out at startup

    So it only happens when you come to a hill, never on the flat or downhill? If thats the case i`d be looking at a battery problem, not delivering enough current, bad cells maybe?

    RIPPED OFF DERAILLEUR CAGE

    I have two mid-drive BBSxx bikes, one with the Alfine 8 and the other with a 7 speed derailleur. Stopped in the middle of a hill? The IGH is simplicity itself, couple of clicks and you`re off, no faffing around trying to get the chain up onto the right cog, the same with an emergency stop...

    RIPPED OFF DERAILLEUR CAGE

    As above, probably chain jumping out of line, getting stuck around one of the jockey wheels maybe and then the torque of the HD ripping everything apart. So now how about a Rohloff or decent IGH?? Derailleurs are so 19th century!!
