    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Well spotted tilson! No more slavery means people in work today are quite often below the poverty line or have to have two full time jobs to make ends meet. This is called "progress".

    I bet you will get a lot of fan mail from Denmark for "DK"... :rolleyes:

    All my miles gone.

    Your LCD isn't very polite, I read 13001 MILF ... :eek: When you shrink it down to avatar size you should be OK but maybe a little bit of Photoshop would clean things up? :D I once put up a photo of an optimist dinghy and all hell broke loose because with the sun shining through the sail the...

    Recommend me a new front light

    My beam doesn't dazzle oncoming drivers because it is so well formed... :rolleyes: As I ride in a country with lots of very bored policemen, that, and the fact that the lights have all the right EU markings on them, make me feel safer at night. Pedestrians are however commenting that the...

    Bike spotting

    This week was very rich in bikes from all over the range: A Stromer, without it's number plate... naughty man! A Haibike up in the mountains but on the road Lots of bikes with brands I had never heard of before, mostly "Dutch" style step through, my guess is 700€ supermarket specials...

    Gearing and motor

    Andy88 I am guessing that is a 26" wheel? With my 28" wheel and big tyres I am mostly in 3rd and 4th. I am still convinced that the Yamaha motor is a much better option than the Bosch for road use. It has normal cogs (sometimes 2 of them) on the front. I have noticed here in town people zipping...

    News: The making of the VIT-S

    I am open minded I would give them a try but you are not taking my NCX seat post away! Ever! As age creeps in tendinitis in my arms seems to be the price I have to pay for lifting all those tons of lamb and bales of hay when I was too young. And riding a bike without some kind of shock...

    Recommend me a new front light

    I am loving my new b+m now that the darker days are here. 50% more lux and daytime running lights. It just needs a switch so that the XT60 on the main battery doesn't spark when I plug it in. It can be run from any external battery source from 6 to 42 V so running time is up to your choice of...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    tilson my problem is that I can't see what you will have left to trade. The beginning and the end of my doubts of brexit success or failure are there.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    The Brexit thread should be about the UK getting out of something it should never have been in, I agree with the General de Gaule on that point, you never belonged in the first place. I think that if there was a vote across the EU asking "Do we want the UK in the EU?" the No vote would win and...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    He is living in a separate reality OG, one where a tiny lunatic fringe in the third largest economy in Europe suddenly takes power and flushes all the wealth down the sink. He read it in the UK press so it must be the truth. The UK press being specialised it seems in the new trend of post-truth...

    Cable size for battery build

    I prefer the XT60 and 12g silicon wire, easier to solder and as d8veh says plenty thick enough to handle the currents we use.

    Solar to Charge your e-Bike

    I think that the suggestion and general consensus is "this is a very bad idea and here are a whole list of reasons why". It did surprise me that the contents of the original post disappeared too.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I didn't "tell" anybody anything of the sort: Tolerant - "Maybe you should... Not tolerant - "Learn a few languages before you start spouting off about what other countries think..." Did you notice the difference above? If not maybe you should do a refresher on the English language...
