yes. Those bottom brackets have external ballbearings, so must have a drilled magnet disc whose drilled hole is wider than the bearings. The sensor is mounted just behind the ballbearings' washers. On some bikes, you may need an extra washer. On some bikes, we supply the sensor mounted on a...

American owned media (youtube/google, fb/instagram, amazon alexa) are even sneakier. They are echo chambers for much worse.

I talk about KT versus Lishui in the context of kits, nothing is locked in the LCD. KT controllers run with fewer LCDs than Lishui.

that's not correct. speed, power, cut-off voltage etc can be set in LCDs such as the KD58C that we use a lot. The main thing when I need to reload the firmware is the number of magnet poles and maximum Amps. The controller would still run with the wrong parameters through self learning, just not...

tories issue veiled threats at the BBC's funding model. Ch4 received similar threats.

Bojo does not care that he is believed or not, he relies entirely on the brexit votes as it's clear that only the tories will deliver brexit, nobody else. The 10% tory's lead in the polls begin to shrink quickly since yesterday. I reckon we'll be in the range of a hung parliament. ICM/Reuters...

that's true but in practice, there is no real need to change internal settings like number of magnet poles on the motor unless you change the motor, in which case, the controller can easily be reprogrammed with a new setting file.

yes.

I'd convert the Genesis Croix de fer with XF08C kit: http://wooshbikes.co.uk/cart/#/product/uid-177-xf08c-17ah/xf08c-rear-hub-kit-with-17ah-battery The battery is good enough for about 60 miles, much less to worry about charging. Alternatively, if you enjoy pedalling no matter the weather...

Everybody knows that any soft brexit is bound to be less good than remain in the current deal, so offering a referendum between a soft brexit and remain is like choosing between two diner options on a hospital menu.

JC offers a choice between his non-existent brexit and remain. That does not make sense to me although I'd like a soft brexit myself. He'd do better to add to the mix May's brexit, Bojo's brexit and WTO brexit. They all have some degree of support.

Public apology: Regarding my comment in this post: https://www.pedelecs.co.uk/forum/threads/whats-happening-at-50-cycles.35889/post-530283 and also in this post: https://www.pedelecs.co.uk/forum/threads/whats-happening-at-50-cycles.35889/post-530275 I wish to make it clear to everyone that...

is the most coherent of the three, unfortunate because of Nick Clegg's legacy.

perhaps they appreciate the wisdom of Lishui in not exposing internal registers of the controller's firmware like KT?

the Rambletta weighs 20kgs.

it comes with front and rear lights but the lights are powered by their own AAA batteries.

you have a handle to help with carrying it but lugging 20kgs up a flight of stairs is not fun.

I know but it's still a matter of mild amusement each time Bojo comes out with another 'message', amusement mixed with despondency that this incredible country could go as low as having to choose between Bojo and Corbyn. On Preston's show, Bojo was saying we'll be out of the EU after Jan 2020...

you will need both, torque and power, because you need to maintain a minimum speed. Let's say you weigh 120kg and you ride a 30kg bike up a 10% hill. Your minimal speed should really be more than 6mph. The required mechanical power for a rider weighing 120kg climbing a 10% gradient at 6mph is...
