    Brexit, for once some facts.

    could it be part of the 'dark web'? the job of these sites is to shield the identity of the posters and the material is then used to spread and re-inforce 'confirmation bias' through FB/Twitter sharing.

    Off-Road Mainly, Conversion Ideas

    I don't have any preference, I sell nearly as many CD bikes as hub bikes until the last 12 months where hub bike sale is ahead of CD bike sale. This said, it is worth to point out that CD bikes have additional risks: broken chain and damage caused to the derailleur if and when the chain comes...

    you make it more complicated than it is. You can of course steer the bike like a car if you so wanted. You can also use the countersteering technique to do the same with less effort, Inertia is what make the bike tilt. When the bike tilts, the front wheel is pitched and turns because of its...

    Where do I get spokes please?

    in physics, the bike will steer itself in the direction of your line of gravity. If your line of gravity goes over the centreline, the bike will go straight. If your line of gravity is to the right of the bike's centreline, the handlebars will turn right. Countersteering has two stages, in the...

    I think 1 out of 25 is fair in view of the mileage reported. The damaged units are usually repairable.

    I understand the role of docking stations. Mobikes are dockless, so it goes in the right direction, but still requires you to return the bike to a designated area. Take the mobikes scheme a little further, imagine you enlarge the designated area to include people's houses in the city centre...

    Which bike to to 25-30mph?

    @d8veh. I wasn't going to post on this thread but I would invite you to put yourself in the place of the suppliers for a minute. What would they think if customers are shown how to overvolt their bikes?

    it ought to be possible to do away with the docking stations if members agree to keep the bikes at their homes or public places until someone needs it.

    I see this kind of behaviour every day in front of the legal high shop in my street. The reason? a poor education, parents who will only praise kids and won't tell them off. These kids will grow up thinking the world owes them a living. (that shop is now closed since the law makes selling...
