    Whoosh ?

    Hi OldManToy, the new Karoo has been delayed until the Autumn, but the torque sensor kit that is used on this bike will be offered for sale at the end of the month. Sorry for the delay. It was planned before the EU imposed 43% anti-dumping on Chinese e-bikes, forcing us to assemble our bikes...

    Woosh Scirocco noisy

    the Clarke cable operated brakes lets you keep the sensored brake levers. If your husband upgrade the brakes to hydraulic, he should also fit hydraulic brake sensors to stop the motor overrun when you turn or slow down.

    Woosh Scirocco noisy

    Hello Donna, Check first if one of the brake pads touches the rotor. If your husband wants to replace the brakes, choose something like this to replace with, they cost about £10 and are widely available at any local bike shop including Halfords...

    Bigger front ring - Bosch Active Cruise 2014

    that 48NM figure is the normalised figure for comparison between crank drive motor, if you were to have a 1:1 front to rear, that is when your cadence RPM is the same as the the wheels' RPM. If your cadence is 100 RPM for example, you have 48NM if the wheels also move at 100RPM, which is about...

    Bigger front ring - Bosch Active Cruise 2014

    you need a new bike with a stronger motor. Changing the front chain ring to a bigger one will simply reduce the torque you have at the moment, not increase it.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    kind of ironic, tory MPs blame the EU for their failures and lose votes to Farage who blames the EU for far less and concentrates instead solely on sovereignty. as James said, tory MPs should watch and learn from Farage.

    by his track record as leader of UKIP, I can't see Farage leading the tories.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    we should really separate the EP vote from the next GE, but for argument sake, if Farage manages to build a proper party with a program for government, he would have taken about half of the conservative voters and about 20% of the Labour voters. There will then be a general alignment, the two...

    they will have to include it in some form. I would prefer voters have two choices out of the three. Some will tick just 1.

    Gtech. Sorry.

    you can select a battery depending to the range you want. A minimum 48V 7AH pack (336WH with Samsung 18650-35E cells, 13S2P 1.5kgs) would do about 25-30 miles for the TSDZ2, a 48V 10.5AH in a small frog battery weighs 2kgs will do about 35 miles on a full charge. Those Decathlon bikes with the...

    no, 4 out of 5 MEPs do contribute to make better laws instead of leaving it to the Commission and their directives. Farage and his group want to dismantle the EU, they don't want to make EU laws, therefore they don't sit in regular sessions. A bit like SF MPs don't take their seats at the HoC.

    Gtech. Sorry.

    for lightweight bike, I converted a Decathlon's Rockrider XC50, 12.5kg with the 3.6kg 48V TSDZ2. https://www.decathlon.co.uk/xc-50-mountain-bike-sram-nx-29-id_8548144.html The result is a lightweight bike with excellent characteristics: ROCKSHOX JUDY AIR fork, hydraulic brakes, 11-speed SRAM...

    I think the option of no deal will also be on the ballot paper. That will split leave votes.

    I am pretty sure that Farage will welcome a second referendum. Campaigning is what he does best and it pays well too, all the tory millionaires and billionaires can recognise talent when they see one.

    apparently, according to her deputy Lidington, she is planning a second referendum. That may be a deal she and JC are doing.

    at least they are consistent. They see Brussels as a giant gravy train, turn up when you want, claim back all your expenses, good pay and a very generous pension scheme. so why not jump on.

    that's the problem with ageing. Farage actually said on BBCQT Jan 2013: "Wouldn't it be terrible if we were like Norway and Switzerland? Really? They're rich. They're happy. They're self governing. "
