you are in the woosh clinic section of the forum. you need to let us know if yours is from Woosh. If it is, I can help with emergency repairs but otherwise, email support@wooshbikes.co.uk for help. If yours is not a woosh kit or bike, please post pictures of your bike / kit so we know how to...

Imagine you arrive at Hong Kong International airport. Ignore the Airport Express because it stops at the wrong side of the water for your hotel. Your choices of transfer to your hotel are: taxi with a driver and a taxi without a driver. The cost to provide you with a taxi without a driver is...

you will be proven wrong in your lifetime! when I started, paper tapes were still in use, silicon hard drive was thought possible but not soon. Some 40 years later, SSDs are as cheap as chips. Computers rule our lives for sometime now. Best get used to it. All the driverless cars need are: 1...

The hair dryer itself is not an important factor. you need an electrolyte between two pieces of metals to cause formation of an oxide film. To have an electrolyte, you need two things: water + a salt of some sort. It does not have to be sea salt, as long as it has some H+ or OH- in it to conduct...

Southend is pretty compact. All of us live between 1-2 miles from work

if you choose to grease, do so sparingly. You need enough grease to fill in the micro valleys on the surface of the metal. No more. If you put a large wodge of grease, when you close the battery, the grease will be pushed into between the contacts which is counter productive. Grease helps with...

Don't you need to leave work outside your home? Anyway, you can't really take the parts home and assemble your bike in your garage. Even if you can do that all by yourself, your productivity will suffer. The main reason for team work is the quality of the end product. People tend to make the...

many would blame both Trump and their local governors - I don't think COVID will hurt Trump specially.

It was depressing watching Trump's speech last night. He has not change a bit, appealing to the same exact people who put him in the White House last time. Us and them. Pro life. Law and order. China steals our jobs. I can't see how Biden is going to reply. If Biden picks up a slanging match...

those having COVID and without symptoms can easily be super spreaders.

I must say working from home is attractive but can't really last very long. We did that in the lockdown. Although we had no pressure to lose any job, we tried two shifts for a while to avoid contact, that did not work either. So we've gone back to normal settings, wearing face shields. That did...

action - reaction. With a president like Trump, should you be surprised? He wants confrontation, which he's got. I have just watched Kamala Harris delivering her speech 'We need a competent president' on BBC News. She sure is an eloquent and a better looking version of Barak Obama.

unless the contacts are gold plated and the connection box airtight sealed, they need a minimum amount of grease to keep dirt, water and oxygen away from the metal surfaces. The latter can corrode the metal. Dirt can also decrease the conductivity across the contacts and cause sparks when you...

they usually do anyway. Truth in politics is often relative, depending on viewpoints. For many Trump's supporters, he only has to accuse his opponents as 'socialists'.

I suppose there is a role for a legally independent identity keeper. Governments tell the keeper who tested positive, the keeper passes on the info to Google/Apple/Exposure app providers. The app providers don't receive the name/email address of the patient, just a token that connects to his/her...

we can supply new keys and lock but you still need to have it unlocked first.

I think John S. has sold it to N. Baker yesterday.

deal or no deal, it does not matter much to the bike industry. HMRC made the point of continuation very clear. All the 145 anti-dumping measures that the EU have at the moment will stay, all existing tariffs will stay. Basically, we don't change a thing. That, to me, points to a possibility of...

their last year turnover 1,145M profit before tax: 22.7M. it's clearly aiming for market share to the detriment of profit. How about the 2500 local independent shops? It's not a healthy situation and it's not new. their chairman's statement was 'against a challenging market backdrop, Halfords...

I agree with all you said but this one. HESC pedal and torque sensor sucks. Where they place it, water ingress will kill the electronics and it's a closed system, where will you find spares? Theirs is also one size fits all. Why do you have a variety of bikes and one kit? At least, offer a...
