    Folding eMTBs

    that's a mistake, I will correct it tomorrow. The first Zephyr-B (2016) was built for up to 25st riders, it had the very torquey Bafang BPM 160mm motor but since 2018, we changed the motor to its smaller brother, Bafang SWX02 140mm motor. Thw SWX02 can go up to 20st.

    Folding eMTBs

    I would recommend up to 100kg or 16st for rider weight. Perfect for 5ft10-6ft rider but will be OK for 5ft6 to 6ft1.

    Help in buying a bike

    the Crossfuse has Bosch crank drive and is well worth considering. Other than that, the Woosh Camino would suit your height very well and we can take Halfords vouchers and you can top it up. http://wooshbikes.co.uk/?camino

    Convert a old lady pashley for hills

    it's possible to fit the old chain cover to a BBS kit but it takes quite a bit of time to modify the old chain cover. The last time I did something similar, it took me a whole day. Honestly, if you want to fit a kit to the Pashley, a front XF07 hub kit with a rack battery is the way to go.

    Anyone Reviewing Idealworld Bikes

    true, but they sell end of line bikes. What happens if you need support, spares or repairs after the guarantee runs out? who is going to deal with these issues?

    Woosh Camino or Faro?

    both the Camino and the Faro have the same saddle height. With the sprung seatpost, from the ground to top of the saddle: 98cm at its lowest setting. If you opt for the unsprung seat post, from the ground to top of the saddle: 93cm. You should be OK with either seatpost.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    viewers may be turned off from those programs presented by remainers because they don't feel their views are taken on (and also programs presented by leavers too such as Andrew Neil's), causing their decline. However, you can see in that same report that Channel 4 News gains in popularity. My...

    New Conversion kit launching

    Hi Matteo, that bike is a specialist build, perhaps for the showroom only. The average kit looks more like this: that picture was extracted from one of gw8izr's posts. BTW, that Rocky Mountain has 3 chain tensioners instead of one.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    programs presented by remainers are being cut at the moment, such as Victoria Derbyshire. Showing support for the EU is seen as 'unpatriotic', thus guilty of bias. that's clearly the work of some zealot seeking to please the master of the day.

    Help! Advice needed on what bike to buy

    that's a very healthy budget! You are lucky - VAT is zero rated in Channel Islands, so your budget is equivalent to a bike costing £3,600 in mainland UK for 4,000 Euros in France. I know Jersey and Guernsey are very hilly - if you don't have strong legs, you are better off with a cadence sensor...

    Hub kits - Proper jobs?

    the problem is the rear shock, if you can find a slenderer rear shock then the problem goes away.

    Hub kits - Proper jobs?

    probably not. Try with a piece of cardboard, 36cm x 10cm to see if it would go.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Ed Balls made the point that a lot of people don't belong to any political party, they vote on on particular issue that is important to them. Same in the Netherlands, their fishermen do not want new regulations. They see the EU bureaucrats justifying their existence by making new laws. AS I...

    Stealthy conversion for bike thats left at train station

    e-bikes are limited to 15mph assisted speed. Any kit that goes faster than that needs to be registered with DVLA and you have to wear a helmet.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    did you watch Ed Balls on BBC2 last night? He was taking lesson in Flamenco dance in Almeria. Vox of Spain claims that they will defend traditional bull fighting and Flamenco dance from being wiped out by immigrants. They won local vote and now run the council in Almeria. Who would have believed...

    he just gives them what inflation takes from the same people. 2% inflation = £400 a year on an average salary.

    New Conversion kit launching

    I know the feeling. We have often to use a thick plate, two wedges and a big hammer to push the crank out.

    maybe a not showy bike with a small geared hub motor just for hills like the Woosh Faro:

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    that is a tricky question. It's straightforward enough to say that you put some in the pot first before you can take out your share of the pot but if you start setting contribution level then it becomes a question of faith. How much is the minimum contribution? How about people with disabilities?
