    Effect of wheel size on speedo readout?

    Yes, based on your tyre sizes. However tyres vary considerably as you've visually seen, so only the actual measured diameter of both is good enough for an precise answer. .

    Effect of wheel size on speedo readout?

    It will be about 4.8% fast, e.g. 15 mph will be 15.7 mph on the road, 20mph will be almost 21 mph, not a big difference and I don't think enough to worry about. .

    How small/short a person can e-folders be adjusted for?

    I've had a look at the Woosh Rambletta images and the cranks, if they are alloy, could have a second shorter mounting point installed by Highpath Engineering to reduce the lengths. Although it has no adjustment to move the steering stem closer to the seat, the riser handle bar can be rotated by...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    David Cameron's achievements as prime minister are such that historians will probably not bother to mention his period of office, other than him granting the referendum. History will be the Brexit outcome, not the run up to it. .

    Not quite as much as his fellow Canadian Mark Carney after he was appointed Governor of the Bank of England. One can hardly do better than having the keys to the vault. .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    a) He's a Canadian so there's a political element to such appointments. b) Our governance is corrupt: Since the covid-19 outbreak began early last year, John Bell, regius professor of medicine at Oxford University, has held high profile roles in the UK government’s epidemic response while...

    Curious about speed limiters

    By design to wheel size. Wheel hub motors are made with different windings to give rotation speeds to suit each size of wheel for legality. Alternatively the wrong motor can be deliberately chosen. For example one maker produced a 20" wheel folder limited to 15 mph but also put the same motor...

    Mmii giant lafree Twist

    They were good at that time, but they are very low powered and with short range by today's standards and there are no spares or batteries available for them now. It is after all almost 20 years old which is very old for an e-bike and not a buy I'd advise. Although most were reliable they did...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I think that's difficult to say, especially when so many of them are elderly and in the age region of likelyhood of death before long anyway. The sheer convenience of putting death down to Covid is I'm sure the big distorter as that 40% French example shows. When that was briefly studied by a...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    As Oyster says, you've misread, the Telegraph only claim a quarter of the deaths were not due to Covid. I've a lot of sympathy with that view, as I've long posted, the Covid death figures are greatly exaggerated. That's in part by the very silly 28 day ruling, in part by the sheer convenience...

    Prostatectomy saddle

    I don't eat processed meat containing nitrates etc, sticking to that which comes directly from the animals after suitable hanging times. And the quantities I eat are far smaller than the norm, typically between one third and one half when present in a typical main meal. A proportion of those...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I don't know how many times I have to explain that schools were out of the question. Pubs are not free, they are commercial buildings. Many community centres are not free, many like our one run on commercial lines. And the last time I went to the pharmacy I had to queue with others for quite...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Of course I know that many do, but I'm also well aware of the many who wouldn't. And as said, Why? We've had no shortage of people skilled at carrying out the injections, so many indeed that we haven't use all the offers such as that from St Johns Ambulance. Nor would self injection increase...

    Not too many of them in the over 50s we've been jabbing so far! I'd still see it going wrong with many average people and can't see the point. They still have to be handed the correct vaccine and some will have questions they want answered, so the person handing them the vaccine might just as...

    Indeed, especially when there's likely to be single jabs for future SARS type infections, with one already with us. Better still if we get that combined with the 'flu jab as a single injection MMR style, simpler the better. .
