    Traction problem with Big Bear

    I'd suggest you trade in your Big Bear for a Bermuda or a Sport which has rear motor. Alternatively, woosh now have the Sport motor (26") that would work with your Big Bear electrics. http://wooshbikes.co.uk/?sport

    Our replacement for the EU?

    defence cooperation is much more important to Germany, France and Italy than to us because of our over reliance on Nato. Let's just stop a second and think about this. Would we be better off getting closer to Germany, France and Italy? My view is yes, we would.

    Our replacement for the EU?

    we shouldn't leave the EU until we can find a better club that we can join. A club that protects us from our bullying cousins across the pond (buy our Trident or else). Let's face it, there is only one superpower that can bully us, the USA, and there is only one club that can stand up to the USA...

    Mid drive

    possibly. I would say a BBS02 36V 25A is a good deal more flexible.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    two months on and still no brexit plan. should brexit be postponed until there is a pro-brexit government and parliament? I should think so (it may be a long wait).

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    customers end up paying more for the same goods so we could say the voters are the biggest risk takers.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I watched Nigel Farage on TV last night sharing a platform with Donald Trump. Farage was without his new moustache. I did try very hard not to link the two together.

    Easy to ride

    I would say the woosh Petite - it has a very gentle ramp up to speed.

    Mid drive

    I always suspected that the real pull of crank drive is high and illegal speed. (geared) hub motors are optimized for 15mph, so tend to lose most of their efficiency at over about 19mph while with a CD motor, you only have to trick the speedo and push the bike easily over 23mph without losing...

    Mid drive

    I know your aikemas are also very quiet because it has high reduction ratio (12.6) thus running at around 2500 RPM, more than twice the RPM of equivalent Bafangs - however, some Chinese mid motors like the Bewo (TCM) are even quieter. The motor is inrunner, its small spindle runs similarly at...

    Fold up bike

    you can advertise for free on the secondhand page of the woosh website. Email 3 nice pictures to support and ask them to put the ad on the website for you. Bikes sell usually within 2 weeks.

    crank drive is generally a bit quieter.

    Ebike derestrictor

    you could modify your program a little bit to keep the magnet pulse at 1:1 up to 15mph. When your speed exceeds 15mph, you keep pulsing it at 15mph to fool the data logging.

    Absolute newbie to e-bikes!!

    if you need a small fold up bike, the woosh Gallego will fold small enough to go under a desk. There is a weight limit though, about 15 stone.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    central to the brexit's argument is the Euro will fail next year, then the EU will implode, leaving Belgium looking to forming a new North Sea alliance.

    Surprising how quick these Brexit price rises have happened

    Brompton export a lot of their bikes, the local hike would be in keeping with their dollar export prices.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    we should stay until there is a clear margin for change. What does leave have to fear? voters change their mind?

    Mid drive

    I wasn't going to reply because it seems nitpicking, you have obviously nothing to learn on e-bikes. But let's see. Speed up to 15mph on flat roads is well within the ability of all bikes. If the same person rides two bikes, one with 10A controller and the other with 20A conroller but otherwise...

    Which ebco bike?

    I agree with d8ve. A rear hub drive like the ebco 30 is perfectly adequate. If the hills are very steep, you'd be better off with a powerful crank drive like the woosh Santana CD for your weight and height.
