Though I don't think we are quite there at present, I can certainly see that happening. The most likely variant at first is the one my bank currently uses. I get my current account banking free so long as I also either use their credit card or have a minimum average £1500 in it. That way they...

They feed the three sets of phase coils, all doing the same job. It's the same sort of brushless motor that's used in most e-bike systems. Basically the controller feeds a high speed sequence of current pulses to each wire in turn, making the motor rotate. Your motor has a magnetic rotor with...

And if you're brave it's even possible by just removing one wheel nut, just a little muscle needed:

Potentially yes. The proportion of slime in a tube is quite critical. If too much the excess of solvent and its vapour thats in the slime to keep it liquid can prevent it sealing as the slime oozes out of a new puncture. I'm sure that's why slime hasn't worked for many people, it's certainly...

True, but for once we can leave it to others but not feel guilty! :) .

Same as me Tillson, I pay cash and never interest. My credit card account I clear monthly and my mortgages were cleared very early. I think it's insane the amount people lose in interest payments, especially so those who borrow and pay back weekly. All they need do is pull their belt in for a...

I've not found modern tubes perishing. Many years ago it was a problem with the old rubber materials but today's improvements seem to make them last for many years. A few claim to be low air loss but I haven't found those I've tried show any noticeable difference, so it could be just marketing...

Indeed, having a bank account meant the bank giving one a credit card, promoting a debt culture. That in turn led to consumers getting additional credit cards and stores issuing their own credit cards. We've now gone a stage further into permanent rolling debt, like the deals on cars...

Hi Oliver. I run a Panasonic unit support site and get to hear of most things that crop up, but this fault is a first so I've no idea what could have happened. I'm aware of the burnt battery contacts issue and there's a fix to prevent it on my site In fact both series of the Panasonic crank...

And our UK government borrowing to spend money it doesn't have on things we don't need, like aircraft carriers and trident missile submarines. .

There was one demonstrated on TV, I think it was the Channel 4 "Posh Pawn" program. It looked great fun, one could get quite skilled at low level aerial manouvres and it could be operated on even a moderate size pond. But as Tillson says, completely unnecessary, just a rich man's toy. .

And always have been. From the first moment we joined the EU they have been kicking up a fuss, causing a referendum on membership a couple of years later. The irony of Flud's complaints about the Remainers making a fuss for a few weeks now now is the fact that the Brexiters have been doing the...

As the saying goes, the truth will out! .

In addition to other mountings, Ezee have been the one firm with the sense to retain the standard battery mounting on many models continuously from 2004 to the present. The UK agents Cyclezee can supply new latest technology batteries for any Ezee bike. Their complete Ezee battery range is on...

No, the Brexist vote changed everything about the investment climate. From cautious optimism that the world's economy could continue to climb from the 2008 recession, the atmosphere has been changed to one of pessimism and genuine fear of a new recession. Yes, confidence is what motivates...

This is exactly what I forecast in this thread ahead of the referendum and had Brexiters telling me I was wrong and that Nissan was here to stay. Fully leaving the EU will mean the beginning of such businesses departing and none from overseas setting up here in their place. Why would any...

Not quite. Yes, it is the only way, but it's often far from fair. .

They don't mind doing without "Peoples" in their country's name, they have the original modern name, much to the fury of Beijing who have to make do with a copy. If there's ever a war in that immediate region, Taiwan will be the first to fall. .

Yes, in Taiwan, the Republic of China: TEKTRO TECHNOLOGY CORPORATION NO. 338, SEC. 2, CHANG SHUI RD., PU YEN HSIANG, CHANG HUA HSIEN, TAIWAN .

With the "Terrible" vote outnumbering the "Awesome" vote by 10 to 1 and no recent responses from him, I think Vic has already given up promoting this product here. .
