    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Makes them sound like an elite who may know what they are saying. Not very fashionable at the moment in world politics.

    E-bike with motors greater than 250w, speeds above 15mph and the UK police

    I have no problems reaching 32 km/h (20 mph) on the flat just twiddling the pedals with a 250 W motor using about 280 W. My ideal motor at the moment is the 250 W 25 A BBS02 - street legal and yet capable of supplying over 1000 W when needed with a 44.4 V 12S Lipo battery.

    Turnigy Graphene.

    IIRC that will mean a different C rate from each pack. This isn't a problem if you are drawing 15-20 Amps on an e-bike. If you are drawing full Amps in an R/C situation your max C rate will be limited to that of the smallest pack. I am running Graphene paralleled with Multistar - both are the...

    Bike pr0n

    Do we have to warn your better half to get the kids out of harms way? The other use of a tensioner on an IGH bike is torque absorber, you can have too much torque!

    E-bike with motors greater than 250w, speeds above 15mph and the UK police

    The greater the Wh of the battery the greater the range. The greater the Watts burnt up by the motor the more tyre smoke :p

    Does your bike have a name?

    "Number Two" of course! Yes there is a hidden meaning: "I am not a number!"... There was no bike called Number One! :D

    Turnigy Graphene.

    I charge at 1C because I have the time and the 10000 mAh 6S Graphene charges from storage voltage to full in about 38 minutes, Multistar about 43 minutes. I have a couple of 250 W chargers behind a 540 W poser supply.

    E-bike with motors greater than 250w, speeds above 15mph and the UK police

    The GSM unrestricted with a 36 V battery and the controller at 17 Amps will easily reach over 42 km/h just turning the pedals so that PAS kicks in on the flat.

    Turnigy Graphene.

    If you can price them the same as 12 Ah of LiPo yes I would buy 2 to use in parallel so that I could be sure of getting 17 A continuous discharge and 18-20 Ah.

    Turnigy Graphene.

    They charge faster, MUCH faster. They are balanced beyond belief and stay balanced. They don't get warm (in normal use). I could go on... They are slightly heavier and larger. They are given for +600 recharge cycles (field tested by the drone boys, if they can be trusted) if you use them between...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Maybe someone should tell Trump that America has never been Great too? I have searched everywhere and have found no reference to "Great America"... :rolleyes:

    New Speeding Fines

    Nowadays I don't do much driving and I am not entitled to any other drivers licence than a French one - I swapped my NZ one for that in 1978 IIRC.

    New Speeding Fines

    Only 130€!!! That's not fair! My last one was 195€ and three points for the same category - 142 km/h in an 80 km/h zone. Nowadays it is six points and up to 1500€, confiscation, licence taken away on the spot for 72 hours etc. http://www.legipermis.com/infractions/grand-exces-de-vitesse.html

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Yeah, here we are, still waiting for the EU to come and take away control... :rolleyes: It isn't a law, it is a clause in building contracts for public works and the initial motivation is security: "s'assurer que l'ensemble des ouvriers comprennent et parlent le français, et, si c'est...

    MACIF has it as an optional extension to their contract if you want to get insured in France.
