I am a bit concerned about the design of the spring (picture above). The metal seems to be stainless steel. I can foresee a possible issue with the formation of Chromium oxide and Nickel oxide which will introduce a resistance in the junction between cells and their busbars.

I am curious to know why so many Bosch customers resent paying normal price for a Bosch battery. Is it because: 1) you feel Bosch overcharge for their batteries 2) you think other makes are just as good, so why pay more?

We don't really know the ins and outs of the last attack - it may not be Microsoft's fault this time. The problem is that PCs are effectively tunnels between the intranet and the internet. In large organisations like the NHS, those tunnels can be used to penetrate their intranet(s) to...

possibly a civil prosecution but I don't think the Labour party's coffers are big enough for legal costs.

the bafang website only promotes the newest models. I don't know if we should blame them.

Would you take your Decathlon e-bike to your LBS to have it looked at if it stops working? It's not just Decathlon. Even among the leaders like Bosch bikes, if a particular model sell 500 a year, it does pretty OK but what is 500 when compared to 18,000 bike shops? The probability is that your...

120mm is the approximate diameter of the motor shell. Those motors fit 135mm rear dropout.

your motor is too small to be a BPM. This is the size of a BPM laced to a 26" wheel:

I still use windows XP typing this post and we still use SBS 2003 server. Both are obsolete. This malware exploits a fault in Microsoft SMB old code to get inside from outside your firewall once it is inside, it uses the victims' privileges. The other way of spreading is by email, to trick the...

No, single wall on the FB.

the pre-production samples arrived this morning. The carbon belt is a Taiwanese compatible, not Gates'. Other than that, the factory did do what I asked. Nexus 3-speed IGH. Note the Allen bolt above the Nexus. That is the break in the frame to install a new belt. Very plain appearance at...

you can calculate the torque as inversely proportional to the radius. But it is difficult to lace a large and powerful motor to a 20" rim. Fit a BBS02 in a 20" bike, it will climb very well at low speed. You can always fit a smaller chainring to push the torque even higher.

I have a couple of pre-production samples of the new Woosh Zephyr C and look for a buyer, £799. It is a carbon belt bike with in-frame battery, in 10.4AH although it is compatible with the larger capacity 12.6AH used in the Zephyr 2017. Carbon belt 3-speed Nexus IGH Front Avid disc brakes...

All these victims run Windows. if more people use linux - there will be fewer victims.

am I the only member advocating for freewheels? IMHO, freewheels are tougher than freehubs and cost peanuts to replace.

We can't - the system is a ledger that is stored on multiple servers. perhaps in the future, all transactions should be made publicly accessible.

TG, do you know that it is very difficult to make a bike that can go up steep hills slowly? Your goal excludes all the bikes fitted with direct drive motors and a large proportion of geared hub motors. Only crank drive motors and a few geared hubs like the Ezee motors are left in the running...

it's not easy to find who owns the bitcoins account that is used to collect the ransom. .

This one is very similar. http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/wtb-ranger-tcs-light-fast-rolling-plus-tyre/rp-prod155193 we keep spare tyres too.

check the gear shifter adjusting barrel. You put the bike to gear 4 (middle gear), make sure that the yellow marker on the shifting mechanism is right in the middle of the two limit lines. IGHs work well after the shifter cable settles down. Just check the writing on the outercable. It has to be...
