No, it's far too damaging to Johnson and himself to be deliberate. It's a media witch hunt. They been out to get him from the outset since he's disliked on all sides. The left hate him working for the Tories, the Tories hate him because he is in reality left wing and they don't like what he's...

But they aren't really are they? They'll soon be back to obediently waving their little union flags and living in a dream world where Britain is always great and every one of our failures from Dunkirk to Brexit is a triumph. .

But it's still a witch hunt by the two faced public, and only existing by being goaded into life by the media stirring. .

Who cares? I don't. .

Not at all, I've been very responsible, not only with regard to the pandemic but in not supporting this privileged society that creates these abuses. You appear to be the guilty one, being complicit by supporting and voting for the privilege you now complain of. I say that because you've...

As I said, it's a witch hunt. It seems you've bought all the rubbish excuses he's come out with, I never have. He went to Durham because they wanted to to visit his parents with their son, they went to Barnard Castle on his wife's birthday. He got caught out, so what? It's what all the...

Actually it is. For all of us it's a balance between deaths and economic harm done. We've got it so wrong we have the second worst death rate in the world AND immense economic harm. Sweden does have a higher death rate than its neighbours but has avoided the economic harm of the rest of...

Of course his excuses are hollow, I don't know why he bothered, he should have just ignored all the witch hunters. He did no harm and your last paragraph is your usual puritanism. Those you say suffered volunteered to suffer if indeed they did suffer. They had the same choices as Cummings...

At the end of the day it's a witch hunt as these last three web pages show. He used his judgement, so what? I've posted on these lines before, we are all individuals with widely differing circumstances, so strict rules to deal with a complex subject are rarely possible or practical. The...

All very true. In fact the repair by replacement policy is true of all the sophisticated crank motor units, but its for very good reasons. Bicycle shops simply don't have the necessary expertise to deal with the faults that might occur with complex units. Their cycle mechanics are no better...

As in what he oughta have done? .

He'll just say the same again, if necessary over and over again until everyone gives up. It's the method they use all time, they did with the Brexit agreement, kept presenting it until it was accepted out of exhaustion. .

As power assist only, lower powers were more common at the time these were introduced and this unit was the only sophisticated crank drive unit at that time from two bike makers. That later changed with powerful units from Daum, Bosch and others and the Panasonic unit soon stopped being used...

That's it exactly, plus bear in mind that this is a low power motor anyway, only delivering 250 watts average at best. Most e-bike motors deliver at least 400 watts actual power, some as much as 600 watts. Below is a graph showing your power delivery over time and you'll see that the bulk of...

Yes, that is the same 2007 model Panasonic unit. Derby Cycles gmbh is German parent manufacturing company of many brands, including the Kalkhoff name. I doubt there's anything wrong with yours since it has those characteristrics of good initial takeoff power but flagging as the speed...

Yes, on the 13th May 2020 when the Assembly adopted into law our 1983 EAPC regulation and 2015 amendments, both unchanged. They already had the EU's 168/2013 type approval law which included the section 2.2(h) exemption for pedelecs from being motor vehicles. Also they'd previously adopted our...

If only. It's only pointless in what Brexiters wanted it to achieve. In other ways it's still very damaging, giving us the worst of all worlds for a very long time. .

Actually it arguably is, since with Charles the Prince of Wales in post it is a principality of England as Henry VIII ruled. .

We meaning UK includes N.I. where the pedelec law since 13th May 2020 is now effectively the same. For the whole UK now our law is the EU one which has become almost a world standard model. With one exception which makes our UK one the strictest, the completely unnecessary 14 years lower age...

Kalkhoff have used several different motors and generations of them , so only comparing exactly the same thing would help. To help I need to know exactly if you have the Panasonic unit that they used from November 2007, so here's two photos of one from low on the left, without and with...
