And it appears to have been designed by a USA based team. Car manufacturers' bikes and e-bikes have almost invariably been designed and built by outside companies. The one in-house exception has been Peugeot who have been a bicycle manufacturer since 1882, and have the most successful cycle...

Another one completely underestimating your speed, and no doubt at the same time glancing around to check for vehicles in the opposite lane coming from the other direction. Sometimes e-bike riding, which tends to be much faster over the ground than most sit-upright cyclists, adds to the...

Looking good and very promising. Let us know more about progress with it. .

But what bikes? Are they the same Wisper brand and model as the OP's? It's not unknown for batteries on some makes and models to fail much earlier under high loads. .

I'm afraid you didn't Tony, without editing rights your attempted entry disappeared as soon as you left the site. If you let me have the first half of your postcode I can enter you permanently. .

You are now on Pendleton Road by the church Chris. .

I don't care about that, their job is to run the country, running local affairs is for the councillors I help to elect. .

The Proportional Representation item is at roughly 18 minutes in for those not interested in the other content. The result differences with PR were dramatic. They also gave some outcomes using other systems of voting. Here's the link again, it will be a short while before it's available on...

Maybe, there are many who believe for various reasons that our modern technological civilisation will eventually collapse and society will revert to a primitive state. I don't agree with that though and recognise the usefulness of smartphones for large numbers. I just think the obsessive use...

Those like the OP who are biased so strongly into ultra light road bikes are the people who killed cycling in this country. Their obsession gave cycling the image of being only a sporting and fitness pursuit, putting off the millions from using bikes as transport in the way the population once...

More likely the opposite, as all those people walking around with faces continuously buried in their smartphones get run over by traffic or killed by wild animals, depending on which country they are in. .

Nothing wrong with your post Chris, when someone posts as provocatively as the OP, they must expect a strong response. .

And I always respond to such misleading items for the same reason as d8veh, to ensure others are not misled. It's too easy to miss the fact that forums like this have more visitors than members. .

Not so Doie, the principal of Wisper bikes, David Miall, would not deceive in this way, and he is a fellow member of the Pedelecs forum. The facts are that it was always openly acknowledged that the Wisper e-bikes were made in China until the point when the manufacture was transferred to...

I suggested a formula some while ago which took into account the high proportion of the battery cost and this has been used by many members. It mainly deals with two year battery life, so with your high quality batteried bike it would be better to increase that adjustment to four years. Here's...

But AV is not proportional representation and I hope the program will stick to it's brief with the latter only. .

There is a hidden agenda behind the apparently negative actions of the two Johns and their followers though, and that many of them are roadies/lycras gives a clue what that is. It's the fear that separate cycling facility use will be made compulsory to get cyclists out of the way of motorists...

But that depends on how many vote tactically and how many already did this time anyway. I think the proportion who will vote tactically is possibly relatively small, probably mainly among the undecided who leave their decision quite late. They are the ones making poll results inaccurate...

The BBC's "More or Less" program on Radio 4 debunks stories based on false statistics and also analyses data. This Friday's edition tomorrow reports on the result of analysing the voting in the General Election to show who would have been leading the country with Proportional Representation...

It does seem to be a lot worse Russ, probably best to revert to the former one I think. .
