    2017 E-Silence EVO

    I thought I saw a join about 1/2 " to the right of the right M6 allen bolt. I may be wrong, it can be a weld, not a join. The chain side support for the rack seems like capable of hiding the join.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    @ Gray198 According to an account of the meeting in New York between Mrs May and US bank bosses, Mrs May declined to provide information about how the British government would approach the Brexit negotiations, other than pursuing a deal that was “in the national interest”. The US bankers warned...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    the Pound drops 2% this week on rumour of faster brexit. The OECD said that while Brexit wouldn’t hit the economy as quickly as it had predicted, it would hit it harder. Whichever way you look at it, both UK and EU will lose out. Trade will decrease between the two parties. It will take a long...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    those predictions are meant for after brexit. We are still in the transition period before brexit. The BoE devalued the Pound, immediately loads the damage onto the consumers and spares businesses. In other times, people would be very alarmed if the Pound drops suddenly 12% in value. The shock...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    the re-election of Jeremy Corbyn shows the way to stop brexit. 60% of the membership are brexiters, 40% remainers. If 50,000 remainers join the conservative party, the UK will not leave the EU.

    Jeremy is re elected as leader of the Labour Party!

    Owen Smith didn't do badly with 193k+ votes. Consider that before Corbyn became leader, the membership of the Labour party was less than 200k. Labour is clearly split, the old membership voted for Smith.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    My first post, still got my forum stabilisers on.

    No. The Big Bear was sold since 2013. It has been improved a bit but still same electrics. The 905SE is only a few months old. The Bear will have a bit of nip and tuck in 2017, mainly a new pair of black leather grips.

    119kg, 5ft6in, 29.5in inner leg recommend a stepthrough bike please

    kittykat, you are correct in thinking that you would need a bike with enough oomph. For 5ft6, I would recommend the woosh Santana2 or the Big Bear LS. Both have strong motors, the Santana has 120mm motor, the Big Bear LS 140mm. Most bikes have 100mm (in diameter) motors. You don't need the Big...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    In all this, the role of economists are very much downplayed. Their role in transforming our economy into what it is, widening the gap between the poor and the rich, fostering discontent, is not much publicized. Look up how they contributed in the 'financialization' of our economy. And yet, we...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    the curse of brexit: when the negociations are completed, whoever leads the negociations is going to be heavily criticized by both sides no matter how much the government at the time is going to spin the result.

    Guest Bike Conversion

    yes, that's what bothers me about copper tabs. The choice is down to the metal used to make the cell cans. Most 18650 cans are made of stainless steel coated with nickel, so we know nickel tabs work well.

    I would stick with the tried and tested Samsung or Panasonic or Sony cells - welded with 100% nickel tabs. BTW, Boston Power cells are made in Shenzhen and Taiwan. http://www.bloomberg.com/research/stocks/private/snapshot.asp?privcapId=30029539
