    Brexit, for once some facts.

    that is to be expected. I think it will suit BJ too. He can blame the EU for dragging their feet so he will be obliged to have a mini deal which prolong the status quo instead of a proper 'freedom' deal.

    Cheap kit for "full electric" conversion (for foot injured wife)

    don't go for that motor wheel. It's a direct drive motor, weighing a ton, suitable for 20mph-30mph so not good (and illegal) for trundling about on public roads and cycle tracks. Your profile would be ideal for a lightweight kit like the 1.9kg Aikema 13.0...

    Cheap kit for "full electric" conversion (for foot injured wife)

    It's very easy to be seduced by an electric bike. Suddenly, 50 mile rides are very doable. Once you have converted your wife's bike, you may want one for yourself. Post the link to what you want to get, people will chip in with their experience.

    I have my FB account very early on, 2002. You can lock access to just immediate friends. However, FB API contains nasty backdoors for specialists like Cambridge Analytica to exploit their system.

    Raleigh Stow-e-way

    If you can wait a few weeks, for your motorhome, the Rambletta could be a good candidate. It has a 432WH battery (36V 12AH) against 240W on the Stow E-Way. Most of the parts of the Rambletta arrive this Wednesday minus the battery, so we can't sell it until the battery arrives next month. The...

    if there is, FB and google will just buy it. We use whatsapp a lot. Guess what, as soon as whatsapp becomes popular, FB bought it. Same with Softbank buying ARM holding. that's the danger. There ought to be a law to stop mono and duopolies.

    1. ease of installation 2. maximum noise level 3. water resistance 4. service interval 5. cost of maintenance Both the Bafang BBS01B and Tongsheng TSDZ2 score well on all those 5 criteria, that's why I sell them. We can't afford to have technical issues on top of the randomness of customers...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    if you could say that about our parents, why not about the current homeless? I am not denigrating anyone, just want to point out that although we live in a far from perfect society, it's still better now than 50 years ago.

    I don't sell nor recommend the GNG kits. In CD kits, I sell only the Bafang BBS01B and the 48V Tongsheng TSDZ2. I did recommend the Gospade kit on this forum because I like it very much although I thought the design is not good enough to beat the two that I stock. As for the GNG kits, although I...
