our economy is quite likely still reliant on cheap credit for another generation.

to act as a direction finder? if the bike moves forward sufficiently, then start the motor...

I think we'll have some idea by March, then a bit more when both sides can agree on the conditions of the transitional period. Our economy will trundle on until 31-Dec-2020. That is the lowest point in economic certainty and therefore growth. I expect growth will return slowly from 2021-2022 and...

in the long run.

how are you going to stop it getting nicked?

it's difficult to accommodate a suspension seat post to suit a 5ft3 rider on a full size bike. Some women prefer to be able to touch the ground on both sides. I would suggest the Woosh Petite. It has front Suntour suspension fork and 2" wide 24" tyres, quite comfortable to ride with normal seat...

Yes. yes, we have 6, 7 and 8-speed freewheels , £10. Rack battery: only 13AH and 15AH, 17AH arriving March, rear rack: £25.

I can supply you with an XF08C (cassette fitting) or XF07 (freewheel fitting) on 700C rim with Lishui 1260 HL controller, 17A (the Carrera's controller rating is about 15A). Noload speed is about 24mph. Standard parts include LCD with 5 assist levels, sensored brake levers,left or right side...

the media has made a big deal out of Blair's share of blame for the war in Iraq. All politicians lie, Blair is no different. I don't think another PM at that time could have said no to President Bush, who in a way was not any more subtle than Mr Trump, Bush said then 'you either are with us or...

it's not that, the two bikes I mentioned have excellent front suspension (the Karoo's fork is rigid), wider rims and tyres and more powerful motors. The Karoo is perfect for riding without power. It is lightweight, its 8-speed gear range is the same as you would with a normal bike and a wide GXP...

brexit is a long term issue. In the meantime, the economy will continue to struggle because the UK has an important structural deficit which was covered by the City of London and in the last 10 years, by increases in immigration. Now that brexit is nearly here, fewer immigrants come to the UK...

I think the Corbyn brand is a little oversold. He benefited from the tactical votes from students and remainers. Since, Corbyn seems to have played down his daring manifesto. At the next GE, these votes may go to the LibDems if they copy Mr Corbyn's tactics.

if you can stretch your budget a little bit, the Woosh Rio MTB with 13AH battery @ £1,069 may be worth a look. Bafang high torque SWX02 motor, 17A controller, hydraulic brakes front and rear, GXP bottom bracket, Ounce crankset, lightweight 100cm suspension fork with magnesium lowers etc...

I suspect Clegg's knighthood was given to him because he was the most influential LibDems' leader, has rendered service to the conservative party and he won't contest Sheffield Hallam against sitting Labour MP next time. He can be the most influential campaigner for rejoiners.

remainers need to do better than to expect or hope for an economic slump to do the work for them. They need to prove that rejoining the EU makes sense to the vast majority, including the JAMs, not just the educated with good jobs.

remainers admit defeat and prepare for a long war: "It could be that 2018 will be the year in which opposition to Brexit transforms into the beginnings of the campaign to rejoin the EU after we have left."...

how can you be so sure? In my experience, a crank drive gives a higher no load speed than comparably equipped geared hub.

yes, it would - approximately about twice the braking power because the pads are larger and the effort is far less.

I have been using this kit on the test bike for about 2 months, never thought of checking. I'll check it for you after the holiday.

I think you meant to say the torque on hub motors is more limited. The power is what the controller pumps from your battery to the motor. The crank drive motors put the power through the gears before reaching the wheels so their range of torque can be potentially wider than geared hub motors'. I...
