    Keir Starmer said today that Labour will retain membership of single market and customs union after the transition period. TM will now have to decide where she stands.

    David, this is something you said earlier: If your EU contacts can supply at near China prices then they don't worry too much about circumvention, do they?

    Traction problem with Big Bear

    I will tell Andy about our conversation. About the Bermuda, you are correct. We sell hub kits and carry a range of motor wheels in 26" rims besides 650B wheels. The SWX02 wheel is also on offer in a complete kit. http://wooshbikes.co.uk/?hubkits#swx02kit

    Traction problem with Big Bear

    the rear SWX02 motor comes already fitted with its own 3-pin lead and quick disconnect connector like this: If you want to quickly connect to your alternate motor, I would recommend you use anderson connectors instead of switches. They are far safer in providing high current and isolation...

    yes. Not at the same time. You would need to connect the wires to a three pole two throw rocker switch, something like this:

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    it's clear that the deal that the hard brexiters want is to walk away without a deal on brexit day, making the break with the EU as deep and clear as possible.

    Commuter bike

    Hatti still does not like their terms, so still no further progress. Basically, the terms do not allow including cyclescheme's commission in the total cost of the bike.

    Traction problem with Big Bear

    No. The torque on the SWX02 is about 10% less than on the Big Bear BPM. that price includes VAT. If you want to proceed, just email support.

    I disagree. If it was, they would have made the arguments specifically for e-bike components. Project fear I think.

    Traction problem with Big Bear

    no, that the motor in the Bermuda. We also sell the motor in the hub kits. http://wooshbikes.co.uk/?bermuda It's a 140mm diameter motor. The BPM is a 160mm motor. You don't need to buy anything else. Undo the freewheel from the rear Big Bear wheel, screw it on the new motor wheel, transfer tyre...

    only the dirt cheap supermarket bikes for kiddies are imported from China, most quality bikes suitable for e-bike conversion are made elsewhere: Taiwan, Philippines, Morocco, Tunisia, Cambodia, Vietnam etc. Really, you sound like project fear allover again.

    KTM has pointed out that bikes and bike parts are already covered. Batteries can't be hit by anti-dumping, motors can't be hit by anti-dumping. So the kits are pretty much safe from anti-dumping. You buy the bikes and bolt the kits to them. What's there to worry about?

    We are not there yet. First step is for the Commision to announce that there is a case to apply corrective measures to protect EU jobs. Second step is to tell the UK to start registration of all imports carrying e-bike HS code. Third step is for the Commission to announce the level of anti...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    any of the ready made formulas that the EU has on offer (Turkey, CETA, Swiss, Norway etc) have zero duty on 99% of these imports, there is no reason why imported goods from the EU should be more expensive. What we want to negotiate is really access to the service market, they let us into some of...

    200% anti dumping levy means Chinese e-bikes will sell for 3 times their current prices. Chinese bikes are currently about 15%-20% cheaper than their EU produced counterparts. Don't forget, the newly introduced anti-dumping framework is fairer than the old one.

    what's wrong with that? is it not what access to the market means?

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Turkey is just one model where the UK still retains its membership of the customs union with the EU. We can do better than that. By the way, we do not need 100% access to the single market.
