When I was a student there were two axe murders in my street in Wellington, one being under my bedroom window... :eek: Fortunately I was at the pub at the time. Axe murder is a traditional Pacific Islander thing :( Is that far enough of topic? Non brexit, non Uk... :p

You may need to buy a Higo connector and solder it on yourself.

I am really 50/50 on this issue when it comes to DIY pedelecs. Having had both I get your point but: - when you live in or near mountains the crank drive wins (once you get the gearing right) - you have puncture fixing mastery many don't have and normal quick release wheels on both ends helps a...

28.2 mm is a strange dimension, I am unable to find either shim or seat post that has that diameter... :confused:

I am more and more worried about the UK. Are you sure everything is going to be all right?

I prefer a rear hub. Yes, choose a cassette it is a decision you won't regret when you need to change the cassette. Freewheels are easy to remove if you are going to put what remains in the bin a.k.a. destructive removal... :D

I went for comfort, I also have a b'twin helmet and my head just barely fits into the largest size (no need to go there, thanks! :rolleyes: ) My GF calls me Robocop when I wear the helmet, I'm fine with that :D

Vegemite!

Looks similar but the one Woosh showed is slightly different. Good try! :)

There is a moral in that last sentence... I have a 149€ helmet :)
