I have always thought that people who want to ride at higher than normal bicycle speeds should buy a motorcycle. There are stunning bikes around for little money. I bought this now 26 year old Honda 250 without an MOT about four years ago for £650 and the guy delivered it to me in his van. The...

Studies like this one and the ones they cite as related suffer from the problem that they are looking for associations - correlations in fact. I am certain that you are familiar with the old saying, 'correlation is not causation.' Dealing with that issue is a fundamental part of any course in...

The site I am linking to here, has a lot of accessible scientific research papers on all kinds of health related topics. They are accessibly written, but usually link to the original research papers if you want the full version. I think it is one of the best and most scientific sites of the...

Unless a person confined his or her riding to the flat lands of places like Cambridge or the Netherlands, i would steer clear of 24 volt systems.

Well, i asked it about your current moniker, so it would be asking a lot for it to pick up on prevous 'disguises'. I reckon that by asking the right question, it could ferret out the right information.

I asked it to assess your contribution to the site. In ten seconds, it returned this - bear in mind, it is dealing with thousands of requests at the same time - The Pedelecs.co.uk forum member **Saneagle** has made significant contributions to the community, particularly in the areas of eBike...

I just asked it if it was familiar with this site and this is what it said: Yes, I'm familiar with the UK Pedelecs forum at **Pedelecs.co.uk**. It's a popular online community for eBike enthusiasts, particularly in the UK, where members discuss various aspects of electric bikes, including DIY...

Chat Gpt hasn't built an ebike, but i would bet money that it has read the whole of this forum including all of your posts during its training.

This is true and is why I should stop wasting my time.

Google claims that there are 300 fires a year in the UK caused by faulty refrigerators. Surprising really, you wouldn't think a vacuum pump would pose much risk.

I do not at all doubt there is harm being done in places like Chinese and Indian industrial cities or those in other places where there are catastrophic levels of air pollution. But these are VASTLY different to the levels of air pollution in the UK. The levels of particulates in Tianjin right...

Has it? How? All I am aware of is that there is a great deal of loose talk about thousands of deaths, which as we have already seen (if we have read the article we both linked too quite independently) points out that it is based on very poor evidence and flawed methodology. The whole idea...

Would that be the same WHO that allowed China to pretend that covid might have been imported into Wuhan in 2019 on frozen fish from New Zealand rather than having escaped from one of the two virology labs that as a matter of record were manipulating bat viruses there since 2016...

If you are concerned about PM10 and PM2.5 pollution, DO NOT use a tea light or candle in your house. And don't burn the toast or fry food either. These things are killing people! I'm thinking of suing my neighbour over the particulate matter he caused to come into my garden when he had that...

But as I pointed out using UK Government data earlier the UK emissions of NOX and particulate matter and nox have been reduced massively since 1970. The actual amount of the reduction is: NOX 3 million tonnes to 700,000 tonnes - now about 25% of what it was in 1970 PM10 700,000 to 120,000...

Completely right, but I would just add that the habits of the badly educated underclass people are a massive cause of their shortened life span. The worst of these is cigarette smoking, or any kind of smoking. Also, alcohol abuse and drug taking. Obesity - an absolute epidemic, is very life...

You are right I think. I was looking for an online manual yesterday and there isn't one, inspite of the fact that there is the appearance of a form for getting manuals on tehir website. Nothing is returned. I do have the paper manual, but not where I am at the moment. However - at the price I...
