most mid and geared hub motors have some plastic gears in their transmission - it's the sacrificial piece in case the gearbox runs into a big problem.

it's possible to use a higher torque mid motor but difficult to justify the 250W label. If your motor can give at 40 RPM what a normal motor does at 80 RPM, then your motor will give double that at 80RPM.

the main issue was with the 25A BBS02 - if you lose 30% yield when climbing a steep hill in the wrong gear, imagine how quickly the motor can overheat. No such problem with the BBS01B ever since Bafang locked the maximum current draw to 15A. you can get the TSDZ2T with throttle. This said, I...

vfr400 made the case for hub drives. Let me make the case for mid drives. 1. there is not much difference in reliability and maintenance cost between the two types. 2. there are less variables in installing a mid drive compared to a hub drive. If you can remove the bottom bracket, then you are...

that petty exchange is not helping. Let me give you a bit of information I got from the OP: his speedo meter is not working. Help him fix this and his bike may work again.

I'd go for Bercow. He has no interest in party politics.

Pound drops 1% to new low after briefing from inside No10. £1 = $1.224 That'll be music to those who bet on WTO brexit. Would JC now accept someone else to lead a national unity government to remove Bojo?

predictable reply from the EU to Bojo's proposal: “The UK’s proposals do not meet at present the objectives of the protocol on Northern Ireland/Ireland and this is the shared view of the EU parliament but also all member states.” I wonder when Bojo will bring May's deal back.

If you have a bad knee, you would like a throttle as a backup. no brake sensors, no throttle. I think the HESC's bottom bracket has a sleeve around the axle. The diameter of the bottom bracket axle of the Suntour kit is too wide for the left side pedal sensor and the splines on the BB may not...

you may have under-estimated. On top of the controller, controller housing and LCD: He'll need new cabling system, the motor connector is Suntour's and will need replacing. He can't install standard pedal sensor to the Suntour chainring. If he fits the throttle, he'll have to fit sensored brake...

they don't want to know.

Polls: If Boris Johnson cannot secure a deal by 31-October: WTO brexit: 34% May's deal: 5% Revoke A50: 20% second referendum: 20% extend A50: 11%

I don't think you can adjust the Subway.

if any investor has any doubt about our own Donald Trump, just look at how the FTSE responds to Bojo's negotiation tactics: 300-400 point drop on top of 4% devaluation of the Pound and we are not 19-October yet.

the danger is that a proportion of gilts need rollover every day. 1% of £2 trillion is 20 billions. The borrowing cost of our national debts can quickly get out of hand within a couple of years after no deal brexit then we'll have to beg the IMF for a loan. A fair proportion of voters who voted...

the fault is with Bojo tactics. It's as if your dad comes to my shop looking for a bike and he likes one of them. Then you phone me up asking for 10% discount saying that you can look after his bike. I'd say I can't. If you asks nicely then I may meet you half way.

it's not quite true. If you work in the EU, then you would have applied for residency and your health cover does not change. It's only pensioner Britishers who are covered normally by the S1 scheme that will stop to be recognised until there is a deal. Same situation with EHIC.

the DT suggests that Bojo may bring back May's deal if there is no deal on the 19-October.

Bojo believes sadly in his own propaganda. Just look at the yield on gilts and investment grade bonds. WTO brexit is going to make it very difficult to borrow more. There is a chart in the article, showing return on investment grade bonds in UK reaches 7% against German bonds at 2%. That shows...

: take the new Woosh Camino as a ball park example. The kit would be the XF08C with 15AH battery, cost: £549. Since the EU imposed anti-dumping duty on Chinese e-bikes, we have to assemble the bike ourselves in the UK. Cost: £75. Camino: £1,049 Electrics: £549 Assembly: £75 Bike transport...
