    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I don't understand why the regulator hasn't upped the cap. If government puts in place a cap, then it has to put in place the mechanism to deal with the mess that cap generates.

    actually, an EU army is a better idea than NATO. Its objectives are closer to home than the war in Afghanistan and it's not dominated by any single country.

    tushingham2, the Woosh kits have internal speed sensor inside the motor wheel, yours doesn't. You will need to modify a 9-pin motor cable extension to piggyback an external speed sensor to solve this problem. Alternatively, send back the motor and ask them for one fitted with internal speed...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    It's not hybrid. The Aussies don't need more than 1 or 2 nuclear subs. The rest are diesel. Even so, there is always auxiliary diesel engine on nuclear subs for when the reactor fails. The deal leaves the final choice of power source to later as Australia does not yet have the capacity of...

    those subs can be fitted with both diesel engines and nuclear power generators. The French complain about lots of modifications to their designs, the Aussies complain about about price hikes.

    UK should not have got involved with the Aukus deal. It's clear that the US wants to sell their subs to Australia. We have nothing to gain and a lot to lose. What is our part in the deal? probably crumbs, we would sell some lawyers consultation on how to get round the NPT that Australia has signed.

    I must confess, I never saw any advantage in imperial units. I never ever needed to know what the exact volume of a pint, weight of a pound or ounce or to understand the difference between ounce and fluid ounce. Even the name 'imperial' has an obsolescence undertone. It's so much simpler to...

    there are shortages on every steep along the way when you try to do anything at any significant scale. Cases, BMS, cells, factory time, etc. absolutely everything, you name it, it is on short supply. Like for bikes, the simple V brakes made in China is on 6 month lead time.

    Opinions about what would suit my needs greatly appriociated

    The Gran-Camino suits heavier riders because it has a larger motor, wider wheels and tyres. It can also cope with light offroading: front shocks with maxle, rear motor has torque arms and a solid base for mounting the battery. The Gran-Camino is probably the only sub £2000 e-bike that is...
