It's all started when couriers have so much work that they are no longer interested in taking anything with a Dangerous Goods label. it's not realistic to impose 300WH limit though, 600WH may be but 300WH is just too little for most e-bike batteries. The increased risk between 100WH (the...

who won this afternoon at the HoC? from Nicky Morgan, one of the remainer tory MPs about Grieve 2: "it is the Speaker who determines whether a motion is expressed in neutral terms - on this basis Parliament’s vote is meaningful." So who has yielded more? TM or the rebels? I suppose it's nil -...

the problem is in the way an e-bike battery case is defined. Is the battery case a piece of equipment that contains the battery? If it is, then you don't need to affix the DG9 label on the carton. If it isn't then you have to stick the DG9 "Caution! Lithium battery" label. That is independent...

I don't know. We have an ambivalent attitude toward the EU for a long time. Yesterday, we were discussing about sending batteries by couriers who are changing their terms to restrict Lithium batteries to 300WH, which is smaller than our least capacity batteries. We'd need additional insurance to...

we transit. We satisfy the will of half the people.

the shape of brexit according to Guy Verhofstadt would be an association agreement, a new framework to avoid individual agreements in a variety of areas. It will take between one and two decades to ratify. TM & JC will be long gone before the new treaty is ratified.

James quizzed me about the warranty. You know about the Olympic Bike Park at Hadleigh, on red runs. When I said we don't guarantee for off-roading, I had to explain 'why not?'. I understand that the Haibike rep also said no. What would be your position on down hilling on one of your bikes? Would...

Peston tweeted this today https://www.facebook.com/pestonitv/posts/2078869192437815 ... After her disastrous general election of 2017, she is being judged on one thing and one thing only: whether she can negotiate an adequate exit from the EU. No deal would for her be the mother of all...

then please point it out, correct it, explain your point by all means. How many times have I disagreed with you before? Have I ever treat your posts with disrespect?

have you got a more up to date one? as for the BBSHD, whether it's legal or not, it's up to the importer to decide, not you nor me. BTW, insults don't contribute anything to the thread.

that review was posted a year ago. A year is a long lime in e-bike technology. Also, I said take it with a pinch of salt. You should follow the link and read the discussion for a balanced representation. One poster said about the Yam: The Yamaha has the correct curve generally speaking...

these motors are tuned a bit differently. If you look at the motor output chart in the comparative review (the Brose was an old model): https://electricbikereview.com/foru...rison-chart-bosch-yamaha-shimano-brose.14085/ the Yamaha is strong at 70 rpm, the Bosch at 90 rpm. the Brose has a...

You get sometimes the power output charts for comparison. Without the charts, I usually use the controller rating for comparison. Most 36V performance motors run at around 20A. Peak output at around 90 RPM. Take this chart with a pinch of salt, but to illustrate, this chart shows the CX...

that sound pretty positive for the PW-X. Were you on highest assist on the Trek?

which bike climbs Pier Hill fastest that you have tried?

ask if they guarantee on red runs. At the moment, I'd say the offer of the Trek is pretty competitive.

which bikes have you tried from Bike Base?

It's up to the manufacturer to label their motors. you may call it mislabelled because I labelled my BBS02 as 500W, but the importer who got them may have asked Bafang for that '250W' label or they have decided to label the motors themselves as 250W. Both approaches are legal. There is no...

If you ride on a flat road, limited at 15mph, you are not going to use more than 200W, regardless what the label says. If you climb hills, you are temprarily allowed to exceed 250W for the duration, subject to the same 15mph limitation. It's an issue of labelling. Nominal 250W is just it...

how so? Where is the illegal bit? When you weigh 10st and ride a bike with 80NM motor, would you like to swap that motor for one that has 40NM? Now change your weight to 20st, this is the same as riding a bike with 40NM motor. It will still move you from A-to B but the acceleration is halved...
