From time to time I seem to come under attack from new members entering this forum on some of the more complex subjects, and am often accused of saying things I haven't said. This often arises because their imperfect understanding of the subject in question leads them to misunderstand what has been posted, or to argue a false case.
On the last occasion I was targeted on three subjects, all on a false basis, and as usual there followed the tiresome business of my denial and the counterattack, sometimes descending into their making personal comments.
To avoid this unpleasantness in future as much as possible, I'm entering threads on some of those complex subjects so that I can refer such critics direct to them. There they can see what I do say on the subject rather than what they thought I'd said, and also learn much more of the many aspects of the subject they'd previously failed to understand.
The first is on the use of Drive through Gear systems on e-bikes, where I think quite a few members might be surprised at how many aspects of this subject they'd scarcely considered or even knew existed.
