there is some truth in what you say but you can check his joining date and his postings. He has good credentials.

vfr400 has extensive knowledge of bikes and e-bikes. He certainly knows more than me.

good read: Alistair Campbell on why Labour lost so many MPs in this election. https://www.theneweuropean.co.uk/top-stories/alastair-campbell-on-labour-failure-at-general-election-1-6425405 QUOTE: ... I [Campbell] detected some warmth and pockets of massive enthusiasm for Corbyn - but in key...

nothing stops the UK joining EFTA to keep most favourable access to the EU market. The EU prefers a deal on goods and fisheries first, achievable within the transition and somehow extend the transition another year or two to allow time for negotiating a deal on banking and services. Such tactic...

there are worthier causes than WASPI.

Blair rebuilt the NHS, expanded schools (which I benefited in my computer business before the bikes arrived), introduced the Working Tax Credit, surestart etc. That Corbyn does not have a chance to evolve his socialism may be a good thing. I don't believe that Corbyn could deliver all his...

your Bafang has a 20:1 gear reduction ratio, the torque of the motor is multiplied by 20 when transmitted to the chainring. Your friend's motor is a direct drive, it's made for speed, not hill climbing. Horses for courses. Crank drives can extend the range of usability on torque as well as speed...

evolution: Marx derives everything from exploitation of factory workers by factory owners, Keynes' solution is state intervention, Blair sees that there is a Third Way, practical re-evaluation of policies to achieve social justice for the many. Corbyn is still stuck between Marx and Keynes, the...

take it to a bike shop, they'll do it in a jiffy.

to me, Blair and Co are truer socialists than McDonell and Co who live in the past. You should see how far communism in communist countries have evolved. Its Darwinism, evolve or die.

my point is he assumes that blue collar workers will vote Labour, no matter what. That's simply no longer true since John Major's days. He's a relic, way beyond retirement. The next Labour leader will have to go back to seek support of blue collar workers, they are their true roots, not...

the material cost differential is very little. Most of the difference comes from the effect of production volume. Cadence sensors are much easier to integrate compared to torque sensors, then there's cost to develop the software to suit the torque sensor's behavior, again volume is king. The...

he used to defend Derek Hatton & Co, who run a trotskyist group called Militant. He did not seek approval from the blue collar workers, preferring a hypothetical transfer of income from the top 5% earners. He did not visit Wales and Scotland during last campaign. I could go on but you see where...

Kinnock kicked out Militant, Blair got new labour elected. I would like to see Hilary Benn, Yvette Cooper and Ed Miliband rebuild a more centrist Labour movement for the blue collar workers, not just those who constantly need help.

you can always find exceptions but that does not negate the value of a carefully designed piece of software to predict desired power given cadence and speed. It's just like speech recognition, a dictionary helps but it's mainly pattern recognition and statistics.

people may want the things that JC offers but not JC himself. He befriends the wrong people and can't answer back at PMQs, just not good enough to be PM.

that pendulum may, no, will, swing back at the next GE after JC has gone.

LD: +4% Green: +1% SNP: +1% They account for 6% of -7.8% Labour vote loss. The BXP added the 2%. Bojo did achieve tactical win but not necessarily through popular votes.

My Faro, absolutely love it:

plan? Bojo will make up as he goes.
