    I would be more impressed if the guy parks his car outside the office and produces a report from scanning the wifi rather than having access to an ethernet socket. Apparently, would be spies have been caught doing just that.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Which Tektro brakes are these?

    they look like the early Tektro Dorado. Take the old pads out and post an image. Some tektro models can use better square pads instead of paddle shaped pads.

    Dahon Mariner D8 Conversion Build

    D8veh did have a similar folding bike that he brought to my shop some years back, I remember it well. fitting of a BBS kit is straightforward. He had a 10AH down tube battery that he installed to the main beam. I don't recommend this because the mid fold protrudes and will make the job...

    Controller operation modes

    subject to programming. I use Lishui controllers since 2011. They are self learning. That means you don't have to set the motor's number of poles, sensored or sensorless etc which is a big plus for kits. They can be programmed for speed control, current control or a mixture. Current control...

    the contract you have with the credit card companies is very different from the cycle to work scheme. Goods you buy with your credit card belong to you who pay the invoices, bikes you obtain on the cycle to work schemes belong to who pays the invoice, that is the scheme provider.
