There are many philosophical questions to be answered including how does one guarantee mobility to people in the EU on low incomes? Will EU manufacturers now be introducing low price, entry level models so that people who flip hamburgers can get to work when there is no public transport?

Problem is getting identical conditions: last night ideal temperature (about 22°C) and no wind. Next week is going to be complicated - the road will be used by the Tour de France people...

Most won't notice a 5 Watt difference on an e-bike but you will un-powered. As an experiment I am thinking of putting the skinny tyres back on the trike to see what difference they make now that I am fit (32 km/h average last night...) and have enough recumbent experience.

You don't need to derestrict it, that is the whole point of such a bike.

In French we would say orgueilleux which is the kind of pride that causes death by starving. A Trump kind of pride...

You could put a Magura HS11 on the front, it will brake just as nicely as a disk. https://www.bike-discount.de/en/buy/magura-hs11-4-finger-brake-front-706490 If you don't change the Decathlon tyres change at least the tubes, it will save you a lot of time but I would put Big Apple Plus or Big...

Maybe this time there will be a special "boarding gate" in the fence for illegals? :rolleyes: Save them cutting holes and such...

I am chewing through a set of Big Ben tyres at the moment, when I am done I'll put an Almotion tubeless on the rear but there isn't much choice for a 20" front wheel. Tyre wear has gone up since I have the SPD pedals on and now that I have front mudguards more riding in the rain will mean more...

I used my laptop as a VNC viewer with a free VNC server on the machines I needed to control, amazing what you can do with 192 Mo of RAM :)

Boring is more the word... Baffling, strange, absurd... Lots of words but nothing funny watching such a shambles.

My laptop is 18 years old and my PC is at least 5 years old...

Neither the US nor Russia want a strong EU, I fear the UK has been a pawn in this game...

For me it seems like a torque sensor could be a good idea but the sensitivity is not set up right - a very slight increase in pressure on the pedals should be enough to tell the motor you need more power. I would choose the 350 W 36v because apparently the new version of the BBS01 250W doesn't...

Don't they come with all Schwalbe tubes?

I have seen one of these up close and it got me all hot and sweaty... :) https://www.cube.eu/cz/2018/e-bikes/trekking/tour/touring/cube-touring-hybrid-sl-500-iridiumnred-2018-trapeze/ The top bar version was parked right next to it and the integration is superb on both.

Like back in the good old days of the colonies old chap... Things were better then, none of this consumer or worker protection fluff. Think the UK could start dumping plutonium in the Irish sea again. Pardon? Oh you mean they never really stopped?...

I bet most fall asleep before getting to the end of reading the headline...

Brussels 2, London 0... ouch...

It has me scratching my head about motorising the trike. For weight it really comes back around to putting a Q100C in the back wheel and giving it enough Amps to push me up most hills at 25 km/h... 50-34 compact road double and wide range 10 speed cassette will cover all situations. I think...

I haven't been riding my pedelec much lately, concentrating on getting some trike km under the belt when on weekends. Yesterday I charged up the battery because I was in a hurry, checked tyre pressure and set out. The motor come on briefly then cut out. The motor didn't come on again until I set...
