    No need for that. :mad: But yes, I did know Weston is the highest point in Hertfordshire :p

    Shock warning! Should we ask for Registration?

    What about kids bikes? What about bikes that don't have a place for a registration plate (my full sus mtb doesn't)? Also, for registration document + plate to be an effective method of making theft unattractive you'd have to tie it up with some form of comprehensive VIN type system. This...

    New sub-forum? Off-Road

    How about a sub-section titled "other electrically assisted vehicles"? Having said that, endless sphere seems to funtion perfectly adequately without feeling the need to draw a distinction between "legal" and "non-legal" ebikes - they also don't seem to have any self appointed "forum police"...

    Somerset Beware

    Tell me why it's arrogance? If I told you I'm an excellent snowboarder would you say I'm being arrogant? Or could it just possibly be that I'm simply aware of my own abilities and knowledge? Oh come now, I'm sure they aren't bored at all :o. Besides, giving up so easily? Well it is jolly...

    Did Kudos give you a choice of RPM Scotty? I'd be interested in the 201rpm motor in a 700cc wheel.

    it's not presumptuous, it's experience. I didn't ignore it - I simply concluded that Mike is overstating the impact that reactionary politicians and media have on the judicial process and the process of building legislation. I suggest you research just how hard it is to construct and...

    Somerset Beware

    I'll try again. Accidents on "illegal" ebikes are unlikely to affect "legal" ebike users because the "illegal" ebike user is acting outside of the legislation. Accidents involving "legal" ebikes are much more likely to affect "legal" ebike users because it would be much more likely to...

    Somerset Beware

    Actually it was a Cobra being tested on the M1 ;-) Still I get your point but it's appropriate to point out that in the "M1" scenario there was no legislation dictating maximum speed, a problem was noticed and legislation introduced to resolve the problem. However, that legislation did not...

    Somerset Beware

    There's no need to panic because if a bloke gets caught driving his Ferrari down the M1 at 200mph it isn't suddenly going to see every other car banned from the road. And they won't introduce a law banning drivers from doing 200mph on the M1, as that law is already in place. It's the same...

    Great info ScottyF - am I right in thinking you also have a Lyen mini monster controller? if so, what kind of amps are you thinking of putting through it? If (more like when) my Tongxin goes pop I reckon Kudos will be getting some of my hard earned - great UK service so I'd only be out of...

    Somerset Beware

    1: It was quoted out of context. 2: Again with the personal attacks. If you think what I wrote was wrong then dissect and attack the argument not the person. Attacking the person reduces your credibility. Don't succumb to the internet faux pas of "ad homien".

    I'm really getting sick to the back teeth of your personal insults. If you want to argue the point then fine and I'll happily have a debate with you but cease with the insults.

    Somerset Beware

    True. Oh, and the old argument "they'll ruin it for the rest of us and get ebikes banned!". Have we seen road cars banned because Ferrai, Mclaren, Mercedes etc now produce cars capable of 200mph? No, we haven't. The worst that would happen is that the enforcement of current legislation...
