... Either a minister of state in your government or an ex minister of state in the same and current government made a statement that post EU , the UK would be freed of environmental concerns and or clinical trial obligations or they did not. Surely that is the germane point. Did they make that...

... The better of these would be watthr , as it would equate accross technologies.

... Changing gears all the time? Don't get that. The purpose of selecting a gear is to get a cadence and pressure which suits the rider, , The crank drive then matches that, and will should be running at close to its peak efficiency. I find that gear changing on the cd ebike very quick, and...

.... Ok but ignoring wind resistance. A stiff breeze can half or double range depending on direction. ...

.... So all pedestrians need helmets.? Obviously if one falls and hits the head, a helmet would have given more protection.

.. well oxygen we (and I include OG and OT in that) can at least agree on your final statement

... For me democracy suits me well enough when I concur and sufficiently well when it doesn't.

... Well one still invites the dotty aunt and the alcoholic uncle to the family wedding, at least in my country we do.

..The weight of the bike is of minor consequence, except to your perception. A light bike , with light weight rims will be highly responsive. A heavier bike will be. Less responsive. Eg your weight gets little change from 90kgs. A heavyweight bike might be 24kg , a lightweight non electric...

.. If the bike is switched off or the battery removed, any charge on it will remain for at least a month. If the battery were left on the bike, and it left switched on .. which would be a recipe for theft, there will be a small leakage of current to energise the electronics and it would lose...

.. yes that's true, but one of the advantages it's that the wheels are smaller and therefore easier to manouver than a full sized bike . Eg. My UrbanMover um20 used to reside under my stairs. There is no way my current Motus is as house trained so it lives in a shed. Walking it through the...

..... Common sense , why is it so rare?. I don't use a helmet, my wife does , and not only in the. house(joke alert). When my children were small i did insist on them wearing helmets , skulls have not fully formed in infants and small kids. If i was riding a horse, or careening down a mountain...

... I would agree with the centre crank motor and the Bosch drive as on the Motus is a very refined version of one. The ability to climb hills with ease, particularly on turbo assist, is great. While the Motus has 10 speeds , I have rarely if ever been in the lowest one .... I suspect that the...

... Apparently there is a potential shortage of helium. Up until recently it was a novelty gas without practical application. The science establishment s seeking to have it stockpiled, as we are not yet making any and any that makes its way to the atmosphere eventually drifts off into space...

... My advice may differ from some of the experts. 1.Decide whether you want a roadracing bike or a trekking type bike or the more specialised mountain bike. There is a significant cost difference and trekking bikes are ideal for tarmac roads, gravel paths and towpaths they are not good on...

.. six mile round trip , one very steep hill. The very best bikes for steep hills will be central crank drives and a low gear. However for your distance , which is small any geared hub motored bike will do. The battery size can be small even 8 amp hrs at 36 volts would be adaquate. The concern...

... I think the previous post was intended as humour... But how would I know?

Mrs May was not invited to the EU 60 year celebrations. I think that that was uncalled for and petty. Unless and until the formal letter of resignation has been posted, the UK remains a fully paid up member of the club and entitled to attend all the events.

.. I am male, with 31 32 inch leg and the Motus fitsme ok , I have just checked and there is easily another 4 inches in the seat post. .. and this without it getting dangerously close to the clamp.It is a very big bike. . There is plenty of adjustment on the height and rake of the handlebars...

.... And I joked about setting the EU border along Hadrian's wall , not realising that it was a possibility!
