Is it like this Neale? That's the one in both the first and second generation Panasonic crank units, and the Kalkhoff Impulse units are virtually the same. There's plenty of electrically failed Panasonic units around which will have good pawl parts, though the Kalkhoff ones often broke...

It will probably make no difference, those countries just outside the EU who trade with them usually accept transport harmonisation is necessary and continue with compatible law. Our "great repeal bill" is actually writing that firmly into UK law, so I expect the N.I executive will also do so...

As I explained earlier, it's a non-story, it will never happen and the Commission cannot make it happen. I don't know why Tommie is flogging this dead horse. .

As I've already explained, going on motor alone isn't cycling, it's motoring. Your bike becomes a very low powered motorcycle and then liable for all the bureacracy that motorcycles have. It's the pedalling that differentiates it as a bicycle, without pedalling it's not a bicycle. Bicycles...

The moment the forum returned to service after upgrade the first three new posts were in the Brexit thread, this Main Purpose of Pedelecs thread and a contentious one about e-bike insurance. That's obviously where demand is and what helps make the forum self supporting financially to benefit...

All the e-bike markets have been growing very rapidly for several years, but no taxation applied. You are just promoting a scare story that has no foundation. Governments are very keen to grow all cycling markets to help solve pollution problems and increase health and won't do anything to...

We won't veto it since there isn't any move to veto. It's just the Commission's usual idle chatter for which they have no authority. Be content it will not happen. .

The Commission is wrong on this point and being devious in referring to e-bikes. In EU law compliant power assisted bicycles are pedelecs, not e-bikes, specifically excluded from being considered motor vehicles and subject to the EU's EPAC law. (Electric Pedal Assist Cycles). .

Be careful what you wish for, you might find your Ireland North versus South posts censored since they are overtly political. :) And you make them in the Brexit thread. :rolleyes: .

As with all usage law it's entirely up to individual countries. The European Commission has no power to enforce this. The Netherlands will as usual tell them to get stuffed and the UK and most if not all other EU countries will almost certainly do the same. Why am i so confident? Because...

In quantity of posts I agree, but for three years he only posted about pedelecs until mid 2016 and the referendum. .
