    My wheel runs backwards HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    No. The clutch was correctly installed. The motor worked correctly, but someone put the brake on the wrong side, so, by assuming that the brake was normal, he put the wheel in the wrong way round with the wrongly installed brake on the correct side. It's not possible to install the clutch...

    My wheel runs backwards HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    The brake screws off to leave a thread that's the same as the one on the other side. You'll probably need some heat to shift it if you want to put it back the correct way to suit the gears. The wheel and motor look to be correct for that bike when you compare with the photos in the link in my...

    My wheel runs backwards HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I'd say that the motor was working correctly, but the brake is on the wrong side. It's a band-brake version, so has a threaded boss on both sides. I thought the threads would be opposite ways, but maybe not. The brake is definitely on the wrong side because the axle has the clearance and stop...

    My wheel runs backwards HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    What would be more interesting would be see photos that show which motor it is as well as the clutch. Aikema and Q series motors have reversible clutches. You just take them out and flip them, though the motors don't like to run backwards, so you have to try many controllers to get them to...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    How come you guys aren't talking about our party in London? It's a massive event. The boys have already had a good go at the Churchill statue, and word is going around that more will happen later. My BLM placard continues to fend off the virus and the police brutality. Every time we march...

    Kemp Starley Dutch Town Bike - out of hibernation.

    I've converted several of those sort of bikes to 36V, which gives a massive improvement to all performance characteristics. The extra voltage will have no harmful effect on the motor. It just gives the option of more speed. 36V batteries and controllers are more common than 24v and often...

    Is it ok to stack a lot of washers on the flange?

    Before buying anything, put the wheel in the frame as it is and check whether the rim is central. This is just for testing. I don't mean you should install it like that permanently. If you need to pack out that much, it probably won't be, so think about using a freewheel with a lot less stack...

    My wheel runs backwards HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Andy-mat is a complete waker. He thinks he knows about these things, but he hasn't a clue. He just keeps copying stuff from the internet without understanding how it works. To help him for the future, I will explain below, but I think he's incapable of learning. These controllers have a...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    A deli employee called 911, accusing him of buying cigarettes with a counterfeit $20 bill, so the police arrived to arrest him. He had quite a long rap sheet. It was reported that one of his crimes (maybe the most recent) was breaking into a pregnant woman's house to rob her and he threatened...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    AFAIK, other placards work to an extent, but will only give total immunity if taken with a BLM placard. Maybe Danidl could test how effective a rainbow placard is on its own at one of their rallies and report back. I don't get paid for those rallies/protests, so I won't be going.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    All you have to do is take a "Black lives matter" placard wherever you go, and it gives you immunity against the virus and any lockdown rules. The police know this, so they won't bother you. I had one in London today and it proved to be extremely effective. It even works for BAME people, even...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    If you want to play with data, there's a lot of good stuff here - as much as you can trust the people and systems that collected it. They hold base data that you can analyse in all sorts of ways with the charts underneath. also you can tick in and out different countries for comparison...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    They're still anti Brexit and pro immigration, but they have to be seen to be going through the motions of Brexit, which is the best we have. Look what's happened in Scotland recently to see how rapidly things go downhill on the other side.

    Brexit wasn't so bad for Norton after all. Now that the crooked management has gone, we can look forward to seeing a lot of Nortons on the road and lots of income and jobs for our manufacturing industry. That probably wouldn't have happened if it weren't for Brexit...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I think the real reason you want me to go away is that I'm going to show how silly your understandings are. They had 5000 in the last week since you made that prediction and it's decreasing all the time. 55,000 in the next two weeks puts you in the same class as Neil Ferguson. It might be time...
