    Brexit, for once some facts.

    OxygenJames only spells out the brexiters' viewpoint. The EU government is the Commission. We'd like to have the top job of the President of the Commision please, or at least 11% of the time.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    at the heart of the brexit debate lies the question: how do you feel about UK representation in the EU? some see one against 27 as pretty hopeless when we pay 11% of the EU budget.

    Two new Woosh bikes are on the way

    I got the factory to add 4mm spacer to the current batch they are making for us. It's always a problem finding the best compromise.

    d8veh have made a few 2WDs. The crank drives are not as good at towing as the BPM. We do suggest a total weight limit of 110kgs on crank drives and recommend Big Bears for anyone heavier or towing.

    Front derailleur adjustment

    thank you d8veh for pointing that out. Anthony, there are two narrow washers, one for each side, if you place them at innermost, they should keep the other washers away from the bearings.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    there is no ambiguity about which law a person must abide by, the local law. The possible role of the ECJ in future disputes is only that of the highest order court instead of the highest court of the country. There is no doubt that a supranational court is required when the dispute is...

    Front derailleur adjustment

    that is usually sorted out by washers or dishing the wheel when you true the wheel. It can be done after a few days. The main thing is to check the anti-rotation washers. Does your wheel look like this?

    how many revolutions do you get when you lift the motor wheel off the ground and spin it forward by hand? 5? 10?

    Front derailleur adjustment

    motor wheels engage the motor when you spin backward but should spin freely forward. If it feels sticky spinning forward then check for brake binding.

    I think quite possibly. The gearbox in the BPM has both nylon cogs and steel cogs, when the motor labours, you can hear the change of pitch. The gearbox in the Krieger's motor is all steel, helical mesh, they don't change their pitch when they get hot. The danger zone for crank drives is under...

    is it a typo? do you mean precedence?

    BPM axle

    I think it's 1.25mm but measure again just to be on the safe side. Count 20 turns on the axle and measure the length, it should be about 25mm.

    Front derailleur adjustment

    You will lose the smallest ring because the magnet disc is lashed to it and it's not as a nice fit as a factory made leftside PAS. I hope you find a way to sort out your front derailleur. The only alternative is to file off some alloy from the left crank to accommodate the leftside PAS.

    his calculation assumes we wipe out our manufacturing. It's not going to happen.

    Anthony, I can send you a pedal sensor to fit to your hollotech if you want to use it.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I would have thought it is due to reduction on the supply side, encouraging uptake of local jobseekers. A fall in Sterling's value reduces the attraction to come to work in the UK thus level of immigration and competition with the locals. If there was a national system to provide employments of...

    Unlike German crank drives, Chinese crank drives can overheat because there is no intelligent software to workout how the motor is being used. If you are interested, this thread gives an insight to the capabilities (and also weaknesses) of the Bafang BBS01 from which the vast majority of Chinese...

    I thought the EU is quite clear on this for a long time: they can do an FTA something like with Canada but nothing immediately after brexit.
