I can answer that question. For CD motors, the measurement is standardised to Bosch method of measurement. no cheating. That is, the rear cog having the same number of teeth as the chainring. Hub motors torque is affected by the Kv constant, which is proportional to the inverse of motor winding...

Your AVE has 20" wheels, the Motus 700C. With the same motor and gear ratio, torque goes up on smaller wheels. For example, if you fit the Motus with 700 x 28 tyres and the AVE with 20 x 1.95 tryes, with the same motor, the Motus will have 36NM while the AVE will have 36NM * 2136mm...

they stand to benefit if the old folks die early.

13 Italian doctors died already. I really feel for the hospital staff. We work remotely from Monday, only come in the office when called in and only for a short period.

I didn't think of bread. Thanks for reminding me. I enjoy making my own bread so no big loss.

I could fit new blocks for her but her husband just fell ill - I didn't ask her when we called her. I'll ask her brother when he comes to collect the bike.

How about people without symptoms but tested having sufficient level of their own antibodies may be allowed to wear a badge: 'I passed the Corvid19 test' and allowed to return to normal life?

Andy, you can zoom into the brakes (on the hires file) to see for yourself. The blocks are hardly used, but the material is early 1980s. It's a choice between keeping it 'vintage' of fit new blocks. The owner can always replace the blocks with modern ones for only a couple of quid.

Distance may not be enough. As I was going to the Post Office yesterday, I walked about 10m behind a smoker. A little breeze blew her smoke into my eyes. If she was infected, that smoke went through her lungs then to my eyes. After leaving the Post Office where I shared the air-conditioned...

at the time of your UM, the controller was doing 10A @36v and some bikes even had it as low as 10A @ 24V. Now, the usual norm is 17A @ 36V and nobody uses 24V system anymore. I sell even a fair number of 48V 17A kits. That explains why hub bikes used to stall on steep hills. Not so often now.

In Hubei, they contact traced an early days spreader who was a coach for just over 1 hour. More than 80% of passengers in that coach were inflected. Although a lecture hall may be better because of the large volume of air.

ignore them. by this time next year, we'll probably still in transition.

we were equally foolish in our days.

sometimes the argument between hubs and cranks is mixed up with the quality of the physical bikes. I converted a couple of days ago a 30 year old Raleigh Richmond, made with Reynolds 531 steel, 3 x 7 speed, with the XF07 front hub. It was such a pleasant bike to work on, all the threads are...

60MN at the wheels with the supplied 48V 17A controllers. Both are optimised for 15mph, winding code 16. If NealH has them, he'll pump 25A @ 48V into them and get 80NM out of them!

IFR is as defined by WHO, a pretty good yardstick. In the UK, currently 144/3269 = 4.4% The most worrying is the probability that hospital treatment fails: only 79 recovered, 144 died. Treatment needs to be found quickly.

commuters are better off with hub motors on two counts: - lower TCO - less maintenance due to the fact that hub motors reduce wear and tear for the drivetrain The argument about hill climbing ability is long gone - you just buy the motor with the torque you need for your route. The difference...

then leave it in the midday sun for a couple of hours.

woosh woosh! what do you mean when it works? You kept your Urban Mover too long! if you had replaced it with my Rio MTB, you could have shared the same bike with your wife. https://wooshbikes.co.uk/?rio-mtb

our current path is somewhere between the brown and green plots. you see there are two peaks: one in late spring and one in late autumn. Hospitals can run out of beds in first or second week of May and again in late September (bottom picture where the red plot intersects the brown and green...
