I watched Anna Soubry on BBC2 at lunch time (BBC2 Daily Politics) talking about their meeting with TM yesterday. The Independent reported reasonably accurately. There will be more fireworks next month.

you can probably assume these two things: 1. degree of corruption is higher with hierachy. EU delegates spending, corruption is multiplied by local factors. 2. degree of corruption grows with the size of the budget. EFTA's budget is about £2bln, mostly paid to the EU. 1% of the EU budget.

it's only an example of why the EU is very exposed to criticism and probably can't reform itself much nor quickly. The main problem with the EU, compared to the EEA, is their publicity funds. The EEA does not spend much money to promote itself, the EU does and thus exposes itself to the...

it's simply impossible to satisfy all member countries with the 'level playing field' approach. Take the fishing policy for example: if the EU and UK government allow British fishers to sell their quotas abroad then it comes as no surprise that some will do just that, and others will see it as...

that's tribalism. They'd rather shoot themselves in the foot than accepting a compromise.

they use the Bosch motor which requires riders to input at least 25% of the total energy required. 500WH / 90 miles = 5.5WH, possible on flat roads, limited to 15mph with user input of 50% (eco mode). There is no difference in economy compared to a geared hub drive in similar circumstance...

JRM says 'no deal brexit is more likely'. He is either a sucker or a liar because TM would either go for a soft brexit or kick that can down the road, playing for time. If brexiters manage to stop a deal, we'd spend the next 5 years in transition and brexit won't happen. People would wonder why...

you can't ever trust politicians.

Take the Raleigh Adventurer as a typical tandem: The front chain ring is on the wrong side of the BBS chainring. The rear chainring is two sided, you can't fit a BBS kit there either. Even if you could swap the front chainring to the right hand side like they did in your examples, the bottom...

the EEA solution does not satisfy brexiters and remainers and yet is the only acceptable compromise. TM knows that the EU and the majority of voters will accept EEA membership (last poll puts EEA at 57%) but it will split her party and revive Ukip, meaning tories will lose power. She'd rather...

I see the reason for the fight: hard brexiteers know that Parliament won't let them detach the UK from the Single Market, their only way to get a clean break is to sabotage any deal by creating chaos, perhaps forcing a leadership contest near the November deadline. Remainers tactic is to hold NI...

I am looking for a solution at the moment. Would this thumb throttle better for you?

that bit is just a pedal sensor with Julet 3 pin plug. If you are stuck, email support@wooshbikes.co.uk, I can sell you one for £6.

get a split disc and cut a hole in it with a 45mm holesaw.

you can't fit a BBS motor to a tandem.

I am in Southend. Come try a few bikes and enjoy an afternoon at the seaside.

TBH, it does not matter much if the government wins all the votes today and tomorrow. TM will kick the can down the road regardless. All she wants and needs is the transition. Demography and time will swing public opinion. If a referendum is held today, remain would win. If a referendum is held...

how about a conversion? you choose the bike you want and get your husband to convert it into electric for you. If you husband does not want to do it, I can arrange for a shop to do it for you. For example, a Pinnacle Lithium or a similar like a Trek 3900 and get it converted with an XF08C kit...

Ask Kudos to fit a throttle for you. The Woosh Petite has already got a right thumb throttle fitted.

almost the Chinese bikes have cadence sensor instead of torque sensor. They cost around £1,000. If you have trouble pedaling, you will need a full acting throttle as a backup. Your problem is your height, you will need the top of the saddle to be low, about 78cm to 80cm at most. Only a few bikes...
