    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Yes it's an amazing turnaround, shows how economic threat can overcome prejudice. With the DUP now having lost overall control of Stormont, reunification is made even more possible. I'd love to see it happen, Ireland should never have been partitioned. .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I'm quite certain that you are right, and I fully expect almost all current UK car and van production to go to the mainland EU in the early years following Brexit. With the PSA/GM deal almost certain to go ahead now, the first victim will be Vauxhall, Luton. Not only for Brexit reasons but...

    When you consider how so many hate the Brexit thread, Brexit posts in a thread titled "Please disappear" is very logical. :) .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I'm confident that le Pen won't get in. But if she did and the EU was threatened in the way you describe, they wouldn't scrap it, they'd just rush in some workarounds, knowing that the French situation wouldn't last long. .

    I'd be rich if it was! Still, it's potentially done pedelecs.co.uk good by boosting the traffic, since that can influence the site advertising earnings. .

    Even more battery news

    Just answer this Recy. Since business is not going to keep a money making idea secret, who is hiding this battery technology, governments? .

    Even more battery news

    How is it that the scientists who develop battery technology don't know anything about these mysterious super batteries? Why is it that even the US military satellites use the same lithium cells that we have. How is it that the world's largest car companies who wag the tail of governments know...

    Even more battery news

    This is pure conspiracy theory stuff. If it were true evidence would leak out from time to time, nothing can be kept permanently secret. The truth is that if there's profit to be made, it hits the market asap, even when it doesn't work well. NiMh batteries were a perfect example with their...

    They'll be even more sick of the subject after the next two years of negotiation and the reporting thereof. Not looking forward to it myself. .

    Is there like a double safety feature when charging?

    To that list of protections I was tempted to add: OTTP = Over The Top Protection. :D .

    Like should helmets be compulsory when riding illegal e-bikes. :) .

    I haven't rejected your opinions about the Brexit thread Paul, I fully understand them and why you and others don't like the Brexit thread. It really is as daft as you say, endlessly going round in circles. What I don't understand is why you can't allow others to have their threads and...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    But he's just gone to Russia, so goodness knows what could happen now. Could be anything from the start of World War 3 to a post Brexit sanction busting trading agreement. .

    News: German cycle industry takes a stronger stance against e-bike ‘tuning’

    With batteries getting ever lighter and longer lived, we could see a return to something from two decades ago in e-bikes, the charger built in. Then they were built into the bikes, but for removability the charger could be incorporated with a light long life battery for charging on or off. .

    Trade Members Being Too Overtly Salesy in 'What Bike?' Threads?

    That'll be the day :D. Seems to me that few cyclists these days buy the bike they need. Many seem to buy mountain bikes even though they only ride on the roads or quite smooth cyclepaths, a bit like all the drivers who buy huge 4 x 4s to fetch the shopping and take the kids to school. .

    You're not only intolerant but cussed as well. That makes you very much like some in the Brexit thread. Once again, the Charging Post is not a bike forum and clearly shown as such, they are completely separate and I've already shown you how to enter the bike forums without seeing the Brexit...

    Of course you are being intolerant, if you aren't interested in that thread what business is it of yours what is posted in there? When you enter that thread knowing what is in there, any annoyance you suffer is entirely your own fault. As I said, just ignore it, very easy to do since it's in...

    Non-legal mountain e-bike with good torque and top speed that is under 1500 quid?

    Not legal since it an S class bike, assisting to 28 mph. They usually have 350 watt motors, though can have up to 500 watts where they are legal. .
