    How much battery sag is too much for a 3 year old battery?

    I was ina low gear when the power drop was noticed, but I did alter my cadence and ghost pedal a bit. The more I think about what you and the thread are saying the more obvious it is that the controller was most likely limiting the power. I did think about cadence at the time I was riding...

    How much battery sag is too much for a 3 year old battery?

    That thread is 'meaty'. I read further than 668, but I am going out on the bike right now since the weather is so perfect. I will come back later and read it thoroughly. By the way - I was sorry to read about your flu and leg problem. Hope it gets better soon. I will report later what...

    How much battery sag is too much for a 3 year old battery?

    Thanks for the input. I will go and read that reference you sent me and then i will go right out and try to replicate the issue with a fully charged battery right now. That hill is pretty near where I live. One thing though, and I haven't read #668 yet, is that I went up the same hill and got...

    A good while back, I had a BMW R65. I bought it because I had been seduced by the 'German Reliability and engineering quality thing. I never got on with it really. On first riding it, it was pretty disturbing to feel the way as you revved the engine up in lower gears, the bike twisted in...

    How much battery sag is too much for a 3 year old battery?

    Observations on the battery sag issue: I've been doing a bit of range testing to try to assess how good the battery is after three years, much of it spent with the bike in the garage. Now I have adjusted the power parameters operated by the controller by using the serial cable to change...

    Some people don't care about staying alive. Maybe that radial engined thing is an alternative to going to Dignitas. That radial engine would have a fantastically strong gyroscopic effect that would prevent the bike leaning and steering. Even on planes with powerful steering inputs those engines...

    I'm assuming Toptiler properly insulated those repaired wires after photographing the repair.... Of course he did.

    Russia has a very active network of agents acting on their behalf. They spout Putin's propaganda everywhere. Not only do they infiltrate NHS networks and blackmail the hospitals, they are also infiltrating assisted bicycling networks. I wouldn't be surprised to learn that they were behind the...

    I want to stay legal, but

    Yes. I set mine to five levels almost straight away using the lcd when I got the bike. Having bought a cheapish cable on Ebay, I found the link that Guerney posted worked well. It will work on any software platform because it is just a web page. Here is the link if it is of any interest...

    I suppose the apologists for non intervention would have sat by while Hitler murdered millions. After all, we all have the right to be bad guys in our own countries, don't we? It's nothing new though. Eighty four years ago there were people who took exactly the same view that it was nothing to...

    The problem with this naivety is that there are potentially limitless numbers in Africa and the Middle East who want, or will want to come to Europe if we don't stop them. The definitions of some regarding who needs asylum extend as far as people who are simply not that well off or live in what...

    Laudable sentiments but overly optimistic. Putin sits at the centre of just about every system of communication in Russia. The chance of Russians coming to the conclusion that NATO is defensive is tiny in my opinion. Propaganda is everywhere and is effective. Most of the people who were likely...

    That's bullsh it old chap. They SAY that that is what they think, but it is bluster and mind games. Americans sending arms is no different to The Iranians and NK nutters sending arms to Russia. The red line is American pilots attacking RUSSIAN territory and possibly American programmed missiles...

    Since the governments already know how much they make (they fill in tax returns) making tax information public will not help government get a penny more. Why should everyone in the world have access to my financial information? Bonkers! And OBNOXIOUS. Maybe they should know how often I have...

    Yes - on the one hand PR seems attractive and fair, then you look at what has happened in Israel where a government led by Netanyahu, who is pretty unpopular with the mass of voters and certainly could not have polled a majority, is kept in power by a clique of absolute nutters from the settlers...

    Who buys politicians? If you mean political contributions, all parties are funded that way. I heard (I think) that Labour got 2.5 million handed in this week. The Cons got about 100k. As for proper bribes - well I have not seen any evidence of that. The tax code is ENTIRELY in the hands of...
