    You need to check your bike, the derailleur and shifter may be for 9-speed instead of 8. Sorry, £649 with 17AH or £599 with 15AH. We have both. It's 350W.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    the brexit logic does not lead to the tories to remain in power. It only does if JC does not win it back from the tories.

    the legal assist speed is 15.5mph for all EAPCs and kits. The noload speed for all the motors we do is about 22mph-23mph. That is, the speed you get when the motor is not restricted and lifted from the ground. The XF08C has a cassette fitting, all the other motors have freewheel fitting, all are...

    yes, sorry about the price. It costs exactly twice the price of the MXUS XF08C but it does have a big torque at low speed. The alternative is the SWX02, a little cheaper and still has about 90% of the torque of the BPM.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I am not blaming anyone, only underlining the inherent risk of ultra low interest rate in a mutualised banking environment (eurozone) where the bad and ugly banks can easily hide inside a large banking union. When you can borrow from them to buy properties for 30 years on 2%-3% mortgage rate...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    France has a lot more space, more income from tourism and higher taxes. The UK political parties are more into buying votes, therefore tax the lower and middle income less. You can't have cake and eat it at the same time, if you rely on the top 5% to pay taxes, they are going to fight back by...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    The problem we have is that it is a lot more expensive to provide a safety net for UK citizens than Greece's for example. We can only do that if we can restrict a lot of entitlements to those who are permanently stuck in the UK.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    the problem with the EU's mutualised banking is that it can bring the whole system down by making credit permanently cheap until the whole edifice collapses. I am not saying that this will happen tomorrow, but if RBS example* is anything to go by, low interest rate aggravates indebtedness and...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I don't think so. You assume that voting for brexit = voting to keep the tories. Socialism is not easy within the constitution of the EU. Take the role of government in providing assisted jobs for the less able-bodied or educated for example.

    Being in the EU did not help them at all. That why they voted to leave.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    your staff are doing well. Good for them. My guess, none of them is single parent? none of them unable to manage their money or uses foodbanks. You should ask those who are single parents, or deep in debt or rely on foodbanks which way they voted.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    if you ask the poorer among us 'do you think your life/wealth/job prosspect is getting better or worse in the last 10 years?' - I bet you can separate remainers and brexiters.

    You have to join the cooperative. Sure, it raises quality over time but it closes the job opportunities for the weaker, less organised, less abled ones.

    it's so much easier and certainly cheaper until now to recruit from the EU.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I remember the original EC marking. We were supposed to apply for certification on anything we produced. It's affordable for big companies, how can you pay for certifications if you only make and sell your cheeses at your village market?
