suspension forks are functional, even cheap ones. They are valuable against road bumps, potholes etc, without them, it's near impossible to ride on many unmade tracks etc. They don't cost much to add to the bike, about £50, but they add weight to a bike. Popular shocks: - Zoom monoshock...

From last Christmas: one year prison, 30,000 Euros fine for having a dongle on your bike in France. two years prison, 30,000 Euros fine for importing, selling, renting or fitting a dongle. Link.

there is a simple thing that the tories can do that will make me vote for them again: stop cutting taxes! Stop cutting taxes for the basic rate and add a new band of tax on those who earn more than £150k a year. Put back CT to 30% and introduce a mansion tax of 1% of the value of properties...

Leaving the EU without a deal is simply stupid. We need to stay as close to the EU as possible to protect our exports, then in time, move away, not a cliff edge. my point is if we want to spend more, we have to tax more, not just borrow more. We can only borrow more if the Pound is stronger...

my local hospital (Southend General) has closed wards through lack of staff. There is no real need for new hospitals, just stop closing existing ones. BJ likes making big noises but reality will soon hit home. Money does not come from the sky, even if he could in principle order the BoE to print...

BJ promised then, but so far has not delivered anything other than new promises to carry on with HS2. BJ found out that Javid could not print much more money than his predecessor, he replaced his cabinet with more yes men. Now with the threat of COVID19, the stock market lost hundreds of...

I took a couple of photos for you:

A customer came late yesterday collecting her C2W bike. Her boyfriend used to run a bike shop but he could not earn a living from it. He is now a mobile mechanic, much less overheads. I wonder if they would consider converting bikes.

Bathtub curve: shame that they don't have a curve for design issues, our weather and our high depreciation rate.

consider that the lady made about 5-6 quick steps across the street before being hit, that's the time our e-biker had to detect, compute and brake or swerve. Had he ridden a push bike with hydraulic brakes, he would have stood some chance. At the speed he was riding, he would need the speed of...

I am not saying that £900 for a Carrera Vulcan is a bad deal, it has a 36V 11.6AH battery, Suntour geared hub motor with a decent torque and torque sensor. The problem with special offers on last year's model is that some parts are upgraded in the new models, making you feel uneasy about out of...

send the faulty board back to China, problem solved :)

what are you complaining about? replacing the board is easier than replacing a chip and boost your income. Win win for both Apple and yourself :)

The 85SX is a bit beefier compared to the 75SX that you already fitted to your Airnimal. yes, I think it will. about 42NM with the Lishui 17A controller. perfect for the 85SX We don't yet sell components on their own. Sorry.

we stocked up earlier than most, a week ago, hand sanitizers, paper towels, waste paper baskets, face masks, soaps with disinfectant etc all from China.. (just joking). I go to the post office in the morning instead of the afternoon to avoid queues.

FT100: 6500 or there about. Sunak is going to have a hard time.

if you live near Southend, bring your wheel in, I'll repair it for you.

I don't know. Lishui gave it to me, I didn't buy it.

one simple way is to look at the average battery consumption per mile. Battery usage increases very rapidly when the bike gets over 15mph.

that goes to show the trouble you would be in riding an illegal bike.
