They won't shut it down, anything that gets people out of cars and onto two wheels is sacrosanct. What could happen if fires get too bad and/or too frequent is enforcement of what should be happening anyway. Any kit bike completed having to be taken to one of the approved testing stations to...

I showed you why with the car market, not the irrelevance of the highly variable bullion market. .

It looked like a fair price so you thought it was, but in fact it wasn't. Because you chose to buy new you had to pay the VAT. That meant you paid £3750 for the bike and gave £750 to the chancellor of the exchequer in government tax that neither the dealer nor Haibike ever saw. But there's no...

But the real villains are not the supermarkets, the villains are the public who expect to pay too little for their food. Decades ago Tesco began the process of destroying the British dairy industry by importing tanker loads of cheap milk from Europe and with lots of publicity making it a loss...

If you finished reading the article you'd know it was the Russia - Norway border and how leaky it is with the Norwegian police unable to cope with the number of migrants crossing each year. No mention of China. .

The Russia - Norway border. Thats what the article linked to by Saneagle is speaking of: Link .

China to Norway, almost 7000 kilometres. They'd need saddles and brakes for that, and a whole lot more :rolleyes:. I think you mean Russia to Norway, they have a leaky common border in the far north so no distance at all. .

When the Speed Pedelec class was first introduced in Germany they exactly used the same 250 watt motors, often in the same bikes, but without restriction. On the flat in still air they commonly managed to cruise at about 33 kph (20.5mph). Eventually they were permitted to have up to 500 watt...

Weigh half as much at up to four times the speed, very relevant. I fully agree that in general use disc brakes are far superior to rim brakes. but I disagree with stupid people who constantly give the impression that that rim brakes are inadequate at all but the lowest speeds. They are...

This is the one thing I part company on with you, because it misses the whole point of the assist law. The Lycras you quote are generally relatively young, fit, good eyesight and with rapid reactions. The bureauacracy free assistance law was intended to expand utility cycling to those who...

Well said. Tour de France riders hurtle down the stage slopes at up to 60mph but have to slow well down for the hairpin bends. A thorough analysis of the 2020 Tour de France brake type use showed the following highlights: 11 stages were won by disc brake bikes, 10 stages by rim brake bikes...

Indeed, but my proposal provides the path to escape the rise of the ugly factions while they are still the minority they are at present. .

Perfectly ok, the Speed Pedelecs forum includes motor propulsion beyond 15mph without mention of pedals, which isn't allowed on any pedelecs normally. Also e-bikes used in other countries, and in China lots of what they call e-bikes have no pedals...

I'd rather hand this country over to the EU, politically to be run by the European parliament as the core of the new intended united one country of Europe under that name, physically as an offshore island of Europe. That would give that parliament valuable practice in actually running such a...

I can't move your post, but we do have a section where you could repost: https://www.pedelecs.co.uk/forum/forums/speed-pedelecs-general-discussion.43/ The USA does have two states where 30mph is permitted, Connecticut and Idaho, and two, Louisiana and Pennsylvania, where 25mph is ok, but I...

The trouble being of course being that too much legal success against Trump could spark widespread civil disturbance, perhaps even making the assault on the Capitol seem mild in comparison. Taking on such a large proportion of the electorate is a dangerous game. .

Probably the most foolish reply you've ever posted. .

I think there could well be a connection between this being an exceptionally cold period by London standards and how hard many of London's buses are worked now, since so much 24 hour working was introduced following the corresponding reduction of the N night routes. Some of them will be almost...

I haven't the vaguest clue what you are talking about now. .
