    Was EddieO right?

    had cancelation at work just now, spent five mins looking and found this http://www.pedelecs.co.uk/forum/threads/best-folding-e-bike.11439/page-3#post-141831 tricky really, wouldnt want to wash up on a desert island with any of the participants, but i'm quite neurotic and fairly averse to conflict

    Was EddieO right?

    sorry, got that, was wondering how disparaging one has to become to be banned - was hoping to find some nice, juicy, full on insulting tet-a-tet really :^)

    Was EddieO right?

    i skimmed it, but couldnt find the transgressions. what does one have to do to get banned? I like cwah because he rather bravely shares the struggle - on a forum, as on facebook, it can often become all glamorous photoshopped rides, near death experiences and highly accomplished DIY miracles...

    Was EddieO right?

    one could debate the merits of front axle power or a downtube battery, but a big phallus sticking out of a bike must unquestionably be a good thing.

    Why on earth did I go and do it?

    apologies if that came across ambiguous, i am left leaning, and dont think he shoudl ahve used the word, and think immigration is, as statistics show, good

    Why on earth did I go and do it?

    i'm not sure political correctness and being left politically is synonomous - consider the parody of clarkson's pained facial expression as he emphasises "how hard he tried not to say 'that word'". I think we can all agree that he is not left leaning.

    pothole accident

    yes, there's an exponential quality to increased speed - i bent a wheel a week after installing a kit on my roadbike and so doing on average 25mph on teh lkevel instead of 20mph or so at which i easilly dodged potholes. But it must be said, english roads are atrociously potholed..

    Why on earth did I go and do it?

    but i think we all can, and should, do more than just "live a clean and responsible life" - society is not a level playing field - teflon tony's terrible indulged offspring could live by that ethos on their father's horrid millions and so ignore the millions of lifes he destroyed to provide them...

    Why on earth did I go and do it?

    But compared to maria Miller or malcolm Rifkind that is very, very small unprofessional fry

    Why on earth did I go and do it?

    i agree, we are, somehow, slaving under the most shameless psychopathic bunch of populist politicians who play the public like a very bad violin

    I've been STOLEN, AGAIN!! :(

    i have one of those on an oxygen kit, it's great for weight distribution and simplicity, but only attaches with a little waterbottle bolts (mines vibrated loose a few times), in my neck of the woods i wouldnt leave a bike out at night with it (locals would take pleasure in ripping it off), but...

    xiongda questions

    i used a big g clamp - squeezed the rotating foot inside one horizontal dropout and levered teh round bottom of teh crank against teh other iinside of teh opposite triangle, incidentally, i went for an 8 speed freewheel on a bpm because teh smallest sprocket is an 11 tooth and i was having...

    bafang bpm and cst 350w 500w

    many thanks, that helps a lot (i wondered which side the antirotation washers were meant to go on)- so, to state the obvious - i fill up teh axle on teh drive side with 12mm washers smaller than teh freewheel inside diameter untill it reaches the outside of teh freewheel, so to speak - does teh...

    bafang bpm and cst 350w 500w

    many thanks, unfortunately i dont recall seeing that at all - only on teh axle the two outer axl nuts and two antirotation washers, i have a hunch i'm going to have to hope i have the right size bolt, because getting into a tet a tet with bmsbattery and getting it posted seems ambitious, would a...
