You may do well on duty if you go with this. Duty on motor, LCD, cableset and controller: 0%, on Lithium ion battery (8507600060): 2.7% You pay more on frames and wheel assemblies but overall, you would pay less duty importing parts for assembling in the EU.

the second hand Petite on my website is in Cumbria and you are in London. There is also one person interested in it at the moment.

you mean recelling all those buggy cars with Lithium ion cells?

that buggy car may qualify for low emission subsidy, perhaps not as much as £4,500 a pop but possibly £1,000. If you do a personal import: FOB: £3,300 Freight: about £400 VAT: about £750 Total: about £4,450 less possible low emission subsidy.

I am a little concerned that your height (5ft2) and dodgy knees & hips may be a problem. The 705 has a torque system. You should test ride the bike.The 705 is an excellent buy for anyone without these issues but you may find that you need a throttle that you can just switch on, ie a twist and...

the Chinese smaller sibling sells for $4,000 in China - well below the price of the cheapest Twizy and the price of the Twizy does not include the battery pack which is on hire. https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Automatic-Gear-Box-and-Left-Steering_60222729525.html

talk about anti-dumping against Chinese e-bikes is a bit premature. There are 4 conditions for the European Comission to consider: 1. the export price is below Chinese local market price 2. the products must be in direct competition with EU made products. 3. the Chinese products must cause...

When the law changed, we only activate the throttle after pedaling and removed the throttle on/off switch. On the CD Krieger, there is an issue with customers finding themselves in the wrong gear and can't easily start on hill so we went some half way to assist them.

we adopt the same approach on our new bikes, the Woosh Krieger for example works the same way. The throttle will pull the bike forward fast enough for you to start and may be change to the right gear but you have to pedal for about one revolution to activate the full throttle.

it's difficult to find. Shimano make some cranksets with short arms like their Ultegra 6800 but you can't use them on a CD motor. There is a list of manufacturers of short crank arms here: http://www.slowtwitch.com/Tech/Short_Crank_Database_2862.html

It's a sport for some to find some soft targets for their morning practice. How about Philip Hammond 'No money for no deal brexit'? Maybe he thinks that the money set aside to pay the divorce bill is more than enough to cover our backside just in case we end up with no deal.

I have always hold little sympathy for those who are rich enough to become 'non dom' in this country.

perhaps our government should be the employer of last resort. I wonder if that has ever been done.

the 5V supply on your controller has a limited capability, be careful with how much current you will draw from that plug.

To be fair, she does not want all the channels. She wants a new bundle for one and is willing to pay for it.

so it looks like Catalans have their own version of brexit. I can't say that I like the idea, but I do hope that the Catalonian government will learn from our brexit and won't play the card 'the will of the people'.

it's a very good start. Give it a couple of years to mature, who knows, they may come here.

I suppose the nearer your jubilee clip is to the motor axle, the less risky the installation.

here are some similar examples of e-bikes without chain: The Mando Footloose: the JIVR: They all have one thing in common: instead of trying to make a better bike, they are obsessed with re-inventing the wheel.

that's exactly the reverse to the current situation. I understand we import at the moment cheap NZ lamb for domestic consumption and export our more expensive lamb to the EU27. After brexit, exports to EU27 may be hit by 30% tariff, we'll be forced to eat better meat!
