I think that the truth is that politicians do not understand electric motors. Possibly they do not understand the import of 'Continuous' What they like is fixed limits. 30mph, 80 millilitres of alcohol, 12 foot pound air rifles etc. You are quite right and not the first person to point out that...

At long last, a fair estimate of distance, not some highly inflated manufacturers wild guess.

Well it seems a heck of a lot of money for basically an underpowered folder with a small battery. But it's a Brompton. Sort of like that sketch about how pricey weddings are, Bridegroom, 'Seems like a cake to me.' Shop assistant. 'No. It's a Wedding cake.'

Not really, what you haven't had, you don't miss. I guess most EU e-pedallers probably think that throttles cannot be fitted. In any case, they do not have a choice unless they buy a Chinese bike. I saw one of those BBO2 conversions in Poperinghe in April and that had a throttle. Probably home...

Do you really ride around with that appalling music, or is it dubbed on afterwards?

Didn't realise that he did not have a front brake.

Well, my reading of that and various googlings is that a fixed rear wheel is a brake, except on EAPCs. But, I am not a lawyer.

Is there any legal definition of what exactly constitutes a brake on a bicycle wheel?

This has come up so many times, Also, there is the question as to what do you mean as 'Off road' compared to what the law says is off road.

For me the big thing about an ebike is being able to wear ordinary clothes. This means that in winter, 12 mph is enough for me.

Having watched the Tour de France, A Crash of Lycras

A Spark, A Flash, or for lycras, A Rash

That is sort of worrying because when I take my ebike to Belgium, France and Holland, I have no knowledge of any quirky local rules. Equally so in Ulster. what is the point of the EU if there is not homogenity?

My guess is that no NI official really wants to touch this one. Clearly, the situation has arisen because of negligence on the part of the relevant officials. Knotty legal problem. Can a state punish an EU citizen when that citizen is fully complying with EU law?

Try a hammer, or using strong cord tie a piece of wood (broom handle etc.) to the wrench. Also, boiling water, a towel draped over the too tight part can loosen things.

Must say that on a recent ride to Mumbles along the coast path I regularly saw ebikes whereas they were quite rare last year.

Although not my cup of tea(too old!), it is good to see products like this. 1 As with car racing there is always a cascade downwards of better things. 2 I am convinced that the more the public see high end ebikes in sport, the more they will come to accept them and want something, albeit simpler...
