    Brexit, for once some facts.

    it depends very much what the product is, may be if they sell hamburgers and chips. If they sell financial derivatives, their margin is under 1%. CT is a very complex area. If the company and shareholders are all UK based, then the net result does not depend much on CT rate.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    such tax exists already, it's the VAT. the tories are brave - it must be hard to fight an election with so few and little giveaways in their manifesto.

    Whoosh Santana CD

    Wynne, Our Santana2 has rear hub motor and normal gear change. http://wooshbikes.co.uk/?santana2 Our Santana Petite is similar to the Santana2 but smaller, better choice if you are less than 5ft 4 tall. http://wooshbikes.co.uk/?petite

    Whoosh Santana CD

    Hello Wynne, Yes, you are correct. As the motor drives the chain, and the chain needs a little slack when you change gear, the motor needs to stop momentarily at the same time you allow that slack. If the chain does not get this slack, it makes a little crunch noise when stepping from one...

    UK legal rear hub 48 volt kit?

    Yes. Throttles are allowed on kits. Only factory built bikes are subject to the new '2016 throttle law' that requires the throttle to be turned off until the customers start pedaling.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I have no envy for people who earn a lot more money than me, but I do think under successive governments since Mrs Thatcher, they have been paying less tax than they should have. Less tax for the top 5% means greater divide between rich and poor and more austerity for public services. That has...

    Bafang Display

    they are not using the same protocol to talk to the controller. You can't replace a LED display with an LCD. The LED display uses analog system, LCDs use UART, and each brand of controllers has their own protocol.When I choose an LCD, it has to be programmed specifically with the correct...

    what is the most popular general purpose ebike in europe?

    Possibly. but there are plenty of e-bikes that last 10 years or more, the life expectancy depends mainly on the maintenance. I have seen 8-10 year old Thompson bikes with SLA batteries going around Southend.

    Two new Woosh bikes are on the way

    looks good. I particularly like the mounting brackets - they clear the seat stays beautifully. I bought a 35mm replacement seat post clamp with rack mount for the demo bike yesterday: https://www.evanscycles.com/bontrager-eyeleted-seatpost-clamp-EV159295 I will fit the rack we use on the...

    We can fit our stock fullsized commuter mudguards and rack OK but they don't hang well with the graphics on the MTB. I am still looking for a pretty rack. Suggestion?

    Woosh Big Bear LS has got a facelift

    group reviews in pedelecs: http://www.pedelecs.co.uk/electric-bike-reviews/group-review-woosh-big-bear-ls/ Since it was reviewed in September 2014, it has remained unchanged in the last three years. As the saying goes, if it ain't broke don't fix it. However, for cosmetic reasons, I decided to...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    upgrading the OS is not a permanent fix. If you are given execution right to your little piece of code, and the victim's machine has access to the internet, you can, given time, break into other machines on the victim's intranet and spread your little piece of code. Just a matter of level of...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I think the inflation figures released this morning will help Mr Corbyn. There is a saying 'people vote with their wallet'. The Pound retreated a fair bit against the Euro.
