Labour can't bring themselves to be more truthful, they want to keep both brexit voters and remainers while lying to both. No better than the tories. That's politicians for you.

Labour's brexit strategy isn't any clearer than the tories. Both favour having cake and eating it.

I watched, near the end of the film, that guy who turned 1,000 bottom bracket spindles a day, 5,000 spindles a week, for something like £12 a week, Raleigh could not compete then, there is no hope now.

the HL controller and the cables weigh 417grs. SWXK front motor: 3kgs Battery: 3kgs LCD. total : about 6.5kgs Don't forget you lose the front dynamo so the net difference is about 6kgs like I said.

and where to return to for service...

I am thinking of bikes for sharing. small volume, bespoke designs. Of course you can't compete against the Chinese on the volume market, it's about 70 years too late for that.

no, you supply the domestic market. Cut the transportation cost.

you made me doubt myself, so I weighed these batteries again just now. 1. 10S5P Samsung cells: 3,098grs 2. 10S5P Panasonic cells: 3,038grs here is the 15AH Samsung cells

I watched the rise and fall of Raleigh last night. We can't go back there but for small volume and a bit of tariff, there may be some scope.

Going back as championed by the Greens and LibDems is not a serious option at the moment. Only 1 out of 4 wants hard brexit. The UK wants soft brexit by a noticeable margin. TM and JC want having cake and eating it. Both should go asap.

tariff is less important than non tariff barriers. Ultimately, people with businesses straddling both sides will come to divest, on both sides. There is nothing rosy about that. Who knows, we may buy more Japanese cars and the UK may resurrect its bike assembly business.

that is precisely what I am complaining about. Mr Barnier and Mr Verhofstadt do not say a word about the preferred model of trade between the UK and EU. Spin it any way you like, when hard brexit happens, both sides lose. Why is it that the UK has to spell out how it intends to negotiate, what...

I posted about the likely impact of tariff a couple of weeks ago. Inflation has already peaked. By March 2019, it would go back down to 1.7%-2%. WTO terms would add about 0.3% inflation for UK consumers. The losers are people whose jobs are tied to trade between the UK and the EU and investors...

Nothing stops them saying they prefer soft brexit. Oh no, that would be 'having cake and eating it'. They much prefer 'the alternative of brexit is no brexit'

Hello Rossco, I can ship the kit to Dublin for £499 all in, or 563 Euros if you prefer paying in Euros. The motor weighs 3kgs, the battery and LCD weighs 3kgs. The total increase in weight is thus 6-6.2kgs. You can order online then email me to let me know that you want front SWX 700C motor...

brexit happens by default because the forces for either reversal or soft brexit cannot equate to the combined forces of EU politicians and kamikaze hard brexiters. If the EU does not force the UK to choose between hard brexit and no brexit that everyone can come out of it with 'win some lose some'.

They owe to the EU27 members to have a position on free trade, none of them has anything to gain by falling back to WTO rules. If you call it negotiating tactics then it amounts to hitting the opposition where it hurts.

there is not much difference in weight between a 10AH and a 13AH. The 17AH weighs the about 2.8kg

it costs nothing for the EU to have a position on trade after brexit. You have to ask yourself why their politicians keep oh so quiet on the subject. Not a hint. Don't tell me that the EU27 are not concerned about the prospect of trading under WTO rules. Ask yourself who really provides the...

Hello Rossco, I can supply you with a front hub kit on 700C black rim, 13AH or 17AH downtube battery, 17A controller, LCD, sensored brake levers. For a general idea, take a look here: http://wooshbikes.co.uk/?hubkit The motor will be the lightweight Bafang SWX, like the one we use on the...
