    Rear hub motor recommendations for cycle courier bike

    I can see that you need a robust motor but let say 80 miles a day, 5 days a week, that's 400 miles a week. 20,000 miles a year. Hub motors are built for 4,000 miles, you would save money with a direct drive motor.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    all the current medications (dexamethasone, remdesivir, synthetic antibodies like regeneron's REGN-COV2 etc) don't replace nor boost your own immunity. They suppress the symptoms or reduce the rate of replication of the virus. If we rely on them instead of vaccines, we'll give pharma companies...

    the battery is locked to the frame and comes with two keys. You don't need the key to ride on electrics, only to remove the battery.

    if you are looking for Russian interference, the story of how H. Clinton's emails were found on the laptop of Clinton's assistant's estranged husband is a good example. Mike Pompeo will lose his job soon, that's pretty much guaranteed, H. Clinton prosecuted? Unlikely.
