    Help! Wheel removal

    Some useful info there, but I wouldn't advise anybody to use a stand to remove and reinstall a wheel with a hub-motor. It's almost impossible to get the wheel back in properly unless you have one of those relatively expensive stands that allow you to rotate the bike upside down and hold it...

    Help! Wheel removal

    That's quite a difficult, one compared with most. I think you mean band brake rather than disk brake. The main problem is the horizontal drop-outs, which means that the mudguard has to be freed to get the wheel out backwards. Here's what you do. It's easiest to do with the bike upside down...

    Anyone dealt with Electric Bike Sales?

    That has far reaching implications when we start banning people because we don't like what they say. Instead, we should keep it in the open, where we can debate it to get at the truth. Wisper have been a key sponsor of the forum for many years. If they or any other sponsor started using their...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    It gets more interesting. Last night on The Pledge on Sky News Maajid Nawaz said that Tommy Robinson will probably stand in the election, and what's more, he said that he'll probably win a seat due to the election system. None of the rest of the panel disagreed with him. If this happens, it'll...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    In case anybody is interested, 400,000 people have signed up to Tommy Robinson's new news channel, and it's only been going about a week. When he was on Facebook, he had 1.2 million followers, which was substantially more than any other political representative/activist. Like him or not, his...

    Westhill Ghost 2.0 or Haibike SDURO HardSeven 1.0 2018 ??

    On the Westhill, you're paying about £300 for the hidden battery stealth look. for some people it's worth it. personally, I think it should have hydraulic brakes and a cassette motor for that price or it should be priced at around £1300. Hydraulic brakes only cost about £40 to upgrade, so that's...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Who lives in the South West? You lucky guys. I'm so jealous. Why? because you've got Sargon of AkKad standing for EMP, so you can vote for him.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Those are very interesting comments. The reason I say that is because that's exactly what I thought when I saw a video on his channel, but then I got a link to one of his other ones from somewhere else, so I looked again. By the time I had watched the second, my curiosity got the better of me...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    He's right. from now on only official peer-reviewed papers can be accepted as evidence. Everything else is opinion, speculation, propaganda or lies.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Crikey, are then any pills for that? I heard some people read The Guardian. Unfortunately, only a lobotomy would save them, though the right pills could prevent them from passing it on to their children.

    Changed Commute - Super Soco?

    Don't take any notice of the range. The battery has 3.24kWh, but with a total efficiency of around 70%, that means that you have 2.3 kWh of usable energy, which will drive you around 40 miles at 45 mph, but you need to leave about 1/4 in the tank to avoid the risk of pushing it home, so say a...

    Gepida sirmium

    Sorry, I wasn't thinking straight. The 26v threw me. I didn't know Yamaha made a 26V motor. If there are three wires, the third wire must be for one of two functions. It could be an NTC sensor for temperature, in which case it will have a resistance to the ground wire in the order of Kohms; or...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Very interesting data, but we have to question the intelligence of the people who presented it. Just look at the figures for Jun 2016. Notice anything? It's easier to see on the source data.

    This is interesting. It confirms what I've been thinking if we can believe it, but we still have the basic problem that we don't know who to trust...
