    How They Convert Bikes in Sweden

    Bigger rear wheel (for more speed?) means brakes not meeting rim. And that noodle wire is in danger of catching on the 29er? Could those v-ees be used with a straddle wire, or use cantilever brakes? How about using motor chain on biggest sprocket of 7speed cluster (with a tensioner to keep it...

    Why Ride Rad?

    "How many vatts?" "Don't tell him Pike, oops!" :) ('Dad's Army' TV show) Yes standard euro RadRunner plus lcd display doesn't show watts, "not part of EU model config" I think they emailed me. (Just shows limits of 50w, 100w, 150w, 200w, 250w per assist levels 1-5). Hills are the worst, 6th...

    Prices of the electricity we use to charge

    I k I know a lady who had to not only get a new card, but close her credit card account to stop a tv streaming Co. from taking money for the service she had already cancelled. The supposed rolling monthly "not a Con-tract" arrangement. Have they ever refunded any "overpayments" they took?

    I guess it's to replace the one they dismantled to expand their coal mine? How very green! :) Ireland 2022 from SEAI (no figures for politicians emissions & hot air, maybe it's the gaps in the graphs?) :)

    Help! Looking for folding ebike, a bit worried about power and hill climbing

    These people do some folding ebike reviews. And a hill climb test is part of their videos. You can jump straight to that chapter at 24:15. Unfortunately, whether one can get any of these bikes in UK is another matter. (They are very "keen" on 'Lectric', so maybe sponsored?) 'E-vrc' UK reviewer...

    Don't know if this is available in UK, but it is about the lowest step-thru I've seen. (YT randomly recommended)

    Would those "battery blenders" allow a supplementary battery to boost range? I don't know if they're any good, but $150, that's nearly the price of another battery! (E.g. Fruugo.ie has bare 36v 10ah for 99euros+) https://biggamebikes.com/product/datex2-parallel-battery-adapter/ Uk at £125

    "Ice mass vs extent", if it has to be broken through, it's Ice, not candyfloss! I prefer facts to "sceance-tists" "prediction models". "Follow the money", if ice were gone/receding, why would a country spend on 5 new atom icebreakers, 2 already in service with 3 under construction, adding to the...
