Very suitable for hilly areas. I can fit a 45cm seat post for...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I suppose the older you are, the more you like to simplify the argument. Remain can't keep their argument simple.

    New oldie

    perhaps not the best way. The controller is in the box behind the saddle. You can still find replacement batteries on ebay with the same casing.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I guess the majority of 18 years olds are too lazy to get out to vote if offered a second referendum.

    she wants to extend our EEZ to 200 miles. Is she completely ignorant on geography?

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    sure, there are good reasons to leave the EU but debate after debate, brexiters continue to maintain that the vote was simple, so is brexit, just leave and shut the door behind you. The vote was indeed simple but the result wasn't because the margin is much smaller than the vote in 1975 (67% to...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I am watching the brexit debate on #VictoriaLive on BBC2 this morning. One recurring theme among the brexiters side is simplicity. How long before we can all agree that brexit is not simple?

    Elysium Bikes

    Hi Ross, your post is in the wrong section of the forum. This section is for road legal e-bikes or EAPCs, your link is about a 500W direct drive bike. Start a new thread here: Speed Pedelecs (S-Pedelecs), Non-EAPCs & overseas

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    yes please. The UK will have Corbyn and the EU somebody else than eurosceptic conservatives to negotiate with. her tactic would be more: get it done and I write you the deposit cheque now.

    Kudos Secret vs Kudos K16

    the K16 is easy to carry but single speed, the Secret is more comfortable to ride but not to carry. If you don't pedal much then K16, if you enjoy pedaling, then the Secret. Both are excellent value for money.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I posted a few times on the effect of demography on brexit, remain wins about 500,000 more votes a year due to demography. At present, the margin is around 52/48 for remain. At the end of the transition (December 2020), there should be a clear margin 60/40 to remain if the conservatives cannot...

    lightweight folding e-Bike (to carry on flights of stairs)

    there is no easy way to make a good, comfortable folding electric bike that you can carry 3 flights of stairs unless you are built like a weight lifter. Firstly, you can't carry it folded, it's like carrying a 1m cube, you can't see in front of you. If you carry it unfolded, you need a built in...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    but we are not negotiating a trade deal yet. We only do the divorce contract at the moment. By the time that we talk trade for real, demography means that the majority would be remainers and that's even before Brits living in EU27 are allowed to vote.

    it's only because it's still small and new. it will become a real super power eventually.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I don't think Michael Gove meant it like that. It is normal that treaties can be re-negotiated later by governments with different leaning. In the brexit context, it helps to keep the future relationship vague at this point in time to help TM getting the deal through.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I think the issue is how much the EU will concede that technology could be used to facilitate border control for goods. The BBC showed last week the arrangements for the Estonia/Russia border. Before Estonia joined the EU, there wasn't a border. Now, trains slow down and cross without stopping...

    Can you rent a bike box from the council? this is a shared bike shed:

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    it's more our side that seeks guarantee from the EU that they will keep their offer of access to the SM. At least, that's what I read in the press.

    Derestricted or legal

    in the absence of clarifications from the DfT, respect for the 15.5mph assist speed should be the yardstick.

    Frustrating 15.5 limit

    some do keep bragging in other areas of the forum to the point that derestrictability becomes a more talked about feature than motor position or rigid fork etc, it has indeed become the most talked about subject by new posters.
