    Brexit, for once some facts.

    there is already a hard border between the UK and the EU27, except in NI. If you want to remove a hard border between NI and the ROI, you have to move it out to the Irish Sea. It's just common sense. I think there should be a vote in NI with regard to which brexit they want.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    NI has a devolved government and special relationship with the ROI. Think of why Gibraltar, Isle of Man, the Channel Islands, the Falklands the dependencies etc due to their geographical locations, they have different arrangements with their neighbours.

    Smaller, subtle 48v battery options?

    you guys should read the article I linked to, in its entirety if possible. The author explains better than I could possibly do. I have no interest in alarming unnecessarily anyone. All batteries for e-bikes must be tested for puncture and overcharging without bursting into flames. Single, custom...

    Smaller, subtle 48v battery options?

    before I buy a battery from a factory, I always ask for their UN certificates. without UN38.3 casing, the battery is not safe if it hits the road, not safe if it is left outside in hot weather.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I believe we should separate the NI border issue that needs to be sorted by November at the latest and the future FTA next. Believe it or not, the current difficulty is not caused by the EU but by No 10 in insisting that the UK must have the same benefits as NI after the transition if we have...

    Smaller, subtle 48v battery options?

    reasons: 1. the cell pack has to be shipped to you. It needs to be done in an UN 38.3 case. 2. If an accident happens on a public road involving your cell pack, how are you going to defend the case?

    a side observation: batteries need to be in a UN 38.3 casing if it is on public roads. Cell packs in a bike bag would be illegal.

    Bicycle Pulling Puzzle

    even without paying attention to the mathematics, you can predict by looking at the angle of the string. If it is more or less horizontal, the bike will move backward. If you pull the string upward at a steep enough angle, the bike will move forward.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    even to an ignoramus like me, that article is just another advert to entice you to bet on the disintegration of the EU. Personally, I think I'll be dead well before the Euro or the EU disintegrates. examples: This is not new. All governments adjust their immigration policy, retirement age and...

    Wheel keeps falling off!

    the motor axle generates a lot of torque, you want to look for signs of damage to the sides of the dropout. The more permanent fix is to install torque arms on both sides of the motor axle. This one is a small torque arm:

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Michel Barnier has picked apart TM's White Paper. It is to be expected. The Chequers plan is only an opening move. Next step, the British public's reaction to what is a WTO brexit. This time, leading brexiters will have to say how we are going to deal with a loss of £200 billion plus a year when...

    Oxydrive c6 lcd replacement

    The C6 is connected to the trunk cable. What connector do you have at the other end of the trunk cable? It may be cheaper to open the C6 and locate the 5 wires and solder a 5-pin socket cable tail: - Bat- - Bat+ - TX - RX - Power on/off

    Oxydrive c6 lcd replacement

    I see the problem. I don't know who deals with Das Kit in the UK. That LCD is not made in China, it's an exclusive product from Das Kit in Germany. It combines the cables on the handlebars together inside the LCD casing, before Julet make the trunking cables. If you are stuck, you may need to...
