    it's made difficult because the magnets are pulling on the rotor to keep it where it is. It is easier to put the spindle of the non drive side on top of a block of wood and push with both hands on the rim to force the rotor out.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I did not say that at all. I said that at the time of the referendum, NAFTA was signed, TTIP was not and joining NAFTA was and still is a possibility. If we join NAFTA and TTIP is signed then we wouldn't need to stay in the SM and CU. I did not say that NAFTA is better than the SM and/or CU...

    even so, he should be able to turn it with a 10mm spanner.

    in the short term, I agree but in the long term, we are a good fit for the USA, Canada and Mexico with unexploited potential.

    you need to check the battery connections. It may be possible to upgrade to 48V but the cost of the new battery alone is more than what you paid for your BigHit.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    We have been drawn toward Canada and the USA for a very long time. When TTIP was delayed, NAFTA was signed, the pull became even stronger than ever. Note that at the time of the brexit vote, Donald Trump was not expected to win. Joining NAFTA was seen as a real possibility and still is. If we...

    they did not expect us to have a referendum on brexit. In fairness, John Major did not expect it either.

    check the magnets. One of them could be unstuck and jams the rotor.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    the EEA and EFTA are effectively associated members of the EU, it's EU minus the political integration. It's the recent expansion of the EU that led to the brexiters' victory. If the EU were to keep its 1973 borders, the US of E may have been reality by now. If the EU keeps its 2003 borders...

    I suspect that after the end of WW2, the Brits took the eye off the ball a bit, enjoyed their victory over Germany and did not work as hard as the Germans rebuilding this country and pay off war related debts. Plus, pulling out of the colonies must have cost a bit too. It took a bit longer than...

    Bike recommendations & info for Deliveroo work please

    I suppose it would easily if the OP went for a front hub kit. The front motor wheel wouldn't need any maintenance for 2 years. That works out about £300 a year less tax. The rest of the bike is unaltered and would need to be looked after as before.

    I watched a program about Anguilla a couple of days ago. After the storm, electricity was knocked out and a lot of people had to put up with candles etc. When they got reconnected, it was with brand new, up to date trip switch and meters. So there a was a silver lining.

    I mentioned Donald Trump as an example. The issue is short term versus long term. The US of E won't happen for many years but it may just happen in the next 20 years.

    Compared to us, the Germans are apparently happier with being organised.
