My experience of clunks and clicks are that it is rarely what you think it is - once it was the saddle and once it was the pedal attached to the crank

i I don't think that can be correct - although I do think 2023 will be a record - this from a source I trust at the end of October Edited to add - it isn't correct - Bill McKibben is referencing some weird hybrid data set from Eliot Jacobson that looks nothing like any of the other surface or...

Is it just a standard 9 pin connector from the rear hub ? I guess you could possibly just use any rear hub motor and wheel ? Are the dropouts standard ? What happened ? Was it an accident? Is there a reason you are not claiming on the guarantee ?

There was a rather good link from the BBC article to this blog post It compared the cmip6 models (that include some with high 5 deg c climate sensitivities) with the previous version cmip5 models, which seems to be doing a better overall job so far, slightly under predicting the current trend

@Woosh - do you know what the power % on this for each assist level - I'm fair wooshing along, even up some smallish inclines in pas level 1 - I was doubting the speedo read out , but checked it today against gps - it is correct. Maybe the larger 48t front cog is helping my pedalling effort...

Bought a few things off AliExpress - battery mount, hydraulic brakes, tools, Bafang rear hub kit (came from Poland but was significantly cheaper than ebay)- all been fine so far - no duty to pay so far. Try to use trusted retailers, topbikekit, greenergy etc where I can

Mahle x30 ? I've heard of the x20 and x35 but not x30. https://mahle-smartbike.com/x20/ https://mahle-smartbike.com/x35/ There does look like aftermarket speed derestrict devices but they look very expensive, probably void the warranty and would be illegal unless insured / registered...

I read it like that too

No - never had them posting or replying on pedelecs

Just one tweak that I made, so to recap I got rid of the front derailleur and chose the 48t front cog that came with the kit (you can choose a smaller cog). I noticed when I was using the highest gear (11t cog) that it was occasionally slipping. I wasn't sure what was doing this, if it was the...

Who knows - makes a better headline ? Get more clicks ? - I never trust journalists to accurately report science - have a look at The Telegraph, Times, Express, Spectator, Mail reporting !

GRL Paper ....Global mean temperatures averaged for the last 25 years (1980–2004) over land and ocean were 0.38 ± 0.14°C and 0.19 ± 0.06°C respectively, above the 1961–90 climatology. These numbers suggest a warming ratio of ∼2.0...

Yes - thanks - that is the link that I followed - that is to a news report on a wmo report : https://public.wmo.int/en/media/press-release/new-report-shows-impacts-of-climate-change-and-extreme-weather-latin-america-and I skim read the wmo report and I don't think it makes any such claim -...

OK - bear in mind it takes a little time to look at each link Africa WMO "State of the Climate in Africa 2022" https://library.wmo.int/records/item/58070-state-of-the-climate-in-africa-2021#.Y2E5kezMJR4 So that included a useful graph which I think answers your original riddle If you look...

My source is NASA https://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/world-of-change/global-temperatures You'd have to look exactly what each claim is based on - I suspect news channels are incorrectly summarising scientific research but I will have a look at some of those links

Don't think I have attempted to answer that question. Could you link to one particular claim ? Around the equator warms least quickly and the poles most, (and I guess most people live a fair distance from the equator) but I would be surprised if there's a lot of difference. I have a vague...

2015 !! Here is the relevant section of IPCC AR6 WG1 (2021) https://www.ipcc.ch/report/ar6/wg1/chapter/chapter-2/#2.3.1.1#2.3.1.1.2 Looks like a raft of subsequent studies showing Mann was correct and his critics were wrong

1) All there graphs are temperature anomaly not actual temperature ( so temperature difference against a baseline period) 2) There aren't actual thermometers on these MSU satellites, they infer the temperatures from irradiance for different levels of the atmosphere. The lowest level of the...
