the best way to judge a bike is how long it can be ridden without any service whatsoever. That was not my idea, I haste to add. One customer came to the shop some months ago with his bike covered in about 3mm of thick London's black dust. I asked when did you maintain your bike last time. He...

that DLG in Shenzhen. They also have offices in Shanghai and HK. http://www.dlgbattery.cn/en/index.php/lithium-ion-power-battery/

this is beautifully written, zlatan. French Catalans also wanted their autonomy for as long as anyone can remember but the French system of government makes independence virtually impossible.

you only need a charge/discharge of 3C to recharge a battery in 20 minutes from another battery. This can easily be done with current Li-ion batteries whereas to build a 200KW generator is considerably more expensive than the cost of a spare car battery.

they forgot to mention that their system weighs 60% less than a lead acid battery. (you can wiki this). They should have compared their product(s) against widely available current Lithium ion cells like 18650-3500mAH cells in the Chinese shops.

good luck to them but IMHO, pigs may fly before the Chinese would buy their batteries. There are lots of technical hurdles to making a good battery. I spent 3 years in a lab where the guys who worked next to me spent an awful lot of our department's money trying to develop a better battery, we...

Lithium Sulphur is not going to replace Lithium Ion anytime soon.There are fundamental reasons why some technologies like Li-S can't become mainstream, its low conductivity is one of them.

'The Tories are destroying themselves in pursuit of hard Brexit'. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2017/oct/06/tories-destroying-themselves-hard-brexit that's astonishing but again, it may be time for Mr Corbyn to put his money where his mouth is.

they would charge a reserve battery at slower rate then transfer the charge from the reserve battery to the car battery at high speed.

if this is the case, there is a simple 5 minute trick to make sure that both pistons move well and equally.

sometimes the inner and outer pistons don't push an equal amount on the rotor, so that the rotor moves laterally a millimeter or two when braking, causing the brakes to squeal or squeak. Let me know if it's the case.

Hello mjd1499, I thought I should clarify the chainline issue on the FB. On all bikes with 8-speed cassette or 8-speed freewheel, the chain rubs a bit against the outermost and innermost rear cog, as illustrated in this picture, of a standard mtb like the Rio MTB: The chainline on the Rio...

I thought the EU is only an observer, not a member of the UN. Maybe one day, the EU would get a permanent seat at the security council on behalf of its 27 members.

I apoplogize, roscop, production is a bit delayed, they will be finished after the Moon Harvest Festival this week, we'll get them end of November. We still have the 2016 Santana CD in stock. http://wooshbikes.co.uk/cart/#/product/uid-15-santana-cd/santana-cd

I would use Scotland's Indyref as an example, if the result were a 'yes'. Scotland's local government will start negotiating a future relationship with the UK government. Nothing is going to happen in an instant. I would have hoped that the EU would discuss the matter in the EP and may sponsor a...

are you saying that the Catalans can never have their independence through any other means than if the rest of Spain agrees? That will lead to armed militants and bloodshed. And how about article 3 of the first protocol?

I actually felt sorry for us and for her, as I was watching her delivery. When the letters fell off the board, I shook my head, could it be any worse? The day before, on newsnight, Matthew Parris compared the tory party conference to a dead frog, being subjected to electrocution experiments by...

That's the entry level NCX lite. I wouldn't do anything other than keeping the stanchions dry and clean. The original grease is enough to keep the rust away for at least a couple of years. After that, watch the video. This is the general recommendations from SR: MAINTENANCE OF THE FORK Never...

I am bringing in switchable 36V/48V kits, one of them is 250W BPM, later this month.

they are not all crappy forks. SR is possibly the world's largest fork manufacturers,they make a wide range of forks, from $15 to $$$$, from some of the cheapest to some of the finest. I use their NEX and XCM forks on some of my bikes. You'll find their forks on expensive R&M bikes and also on...
