    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Can you be more specific? That's just rhetoric. Where's his private army? Is this it? https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2020/07/26/heavily-armed-protesters-march-louisville-demanding-justicebreonna/ Wasn't Trump still making his speech while the building was invaded and telling the crowd not to...

    Yosepower hub kits.

    It'll work the same as what they were doing in Germany/Austria but the charges might be a bit different coulod be slightly dearer or cheaper. I'm only guessing what they've done. A drop shipping arrangement can be made with one phonecall, so anybody can do it. Oxygen used to use a company in...

    Ebike on smart turbo trainer.

    Not really. I got one to clamp tight enough to be able to measure the motor output, but it wasn't secure enough to use it as a trainer. If you're handy with the spanners, you could make custom axle clamps out of suitably sized sockets welded to the mechanism after cutting off then old clamps...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Didn't KS just get a vote of no confidence from our own party or does the party give out fake news? I don't remember that happening to Boris. https://labourheartlands.com/the-first-motion-of-no-confidence-in-sir-keir-starmer-passes-vote/

    Yes, of course the Guardian is right.

    Don't do it unless it's an old Bosch. You've been warned!

    That doesn't work since the mk1 bosch system. If you do it too much, it can brick your motor!

    The stuff comes from china. The UK warehouse only processes the paperwork and stores the stuff temporarily. Basically, they're only a shipping agent. Your order goes to China and your contract is with them.

    Urban Mover Sprite 44

    That's the old type optical sensor. Best thing would be to replace the controller with a modern one with LCD, then you can use a normal pedal sensor. Those systems are very crude with only one power setting. If you get a 24v/36v dual voltage controller, you can later get a 36v battery when your...

    Ebike on smart turbo trainer.

    The magnet has to be on the wheel or your Bosch won't work unless it's a mk1 with original software. What about getting a turbo trainer with a roller. That's what I had, and it was really good. Tacx. Why do you need the motor? You can normally adjust the resistance, so if you use the motor...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Unfortunately, that is fake news. You have to read the words carefully. She retweeted Lin Wood, a prominent lawyer. Yup, that makes her the most extreme Trump supporter of the worst kind. Other sources say that they examined her PC and found that she had visited a lot of Trump supporter...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I have no idea who this guy is or the source, but this looks genuine to me: https://video.parler.com/Lf/10/Lf10oG6r1OLl.mp4 The laptop was stolen. It's even reported in the Guardian: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2021/jan/08/capitol-attack-computer-theft-information-security This story...

    You should apologise to Neal. He was right, as you've just demonstrated. Read again and ask if there's something you don't understand.

    Bike advice quick release thru axle lever videos included

    Ordinary plain nuts like these. It doesn't make any difference what they're made of. Don't get flanged ones or nyloc. I'd be surprised if there isn't something in your garage that has them on it, so you can borrow them...

    Bike advice quick release thru axle lever videos included

    Put two 6mm nuts on the threaded part. Using two spanners, lock them together by screwing the outer nut inwards and the inner one outwards, then use one spanner to unscrew the inner nut, which will remain locked to the thread and the other nut while you unscrew the axle. If the two nuts start to...

    Help! Derestricting Oxygen S-Cross MTB Mk2?

    The magnet on a pedal method might work, when I think about it. You'd have to cut into the motor cable to get at the white speed sensor wire and the red and black 5v power supply wires. Use an external speed sensor positioned to sense a magnet on the back of the pedal. This method would probably...

    Lockdown Taxi service

    I wonder how many of those 65 seized bikes were in the same situation as the case I was involved in recently, where the police meaured the peak power from the battery instead of checking the continuous rated power of the motor. As it's impossible to measure the continuous rated power, I suspect...
