    Who actually wants more than 85nm and 400%

    I'm happy with 85NM /600 watts if I had a battery that'll keep up..... give me some extra range (I'm on a 630w battery), but I'll gladly take 100NM+ and 750w+ and a battery that'll offer more range. Seems to me it's the motor manufacturers offering more NM and watts that's pushing the battery...

    🚴 Why Don't You Ride to Work or for Everyday Commitments?

    Have you seen the absolute lunacy of car and truck drivers in the UK before 6.00 am? Normal road rules DO NOT APPLY, I'd be dead within a fortnight.

    Best eMTB for reaching 40 km/h unlocked speed — options available in France?

    I'd be more concerned about the 30,000 euro fine in France if you're caught with an ebike that goes over the 25kmh limit (presuming it's still in place from when they introduced it around 2020). Maybe worth checking?

    Stone the heretic. Unpopular opinions

    Name one song from those you named that sing in Ah Merry Can. Probably the most retarded Ah Merry Can post I've ever read. When singing we all lose our regional and national accents you bloody halfwit......even Aussies (no offense to our Antipodean brothers implied).. We all speak ENGLISH!

    Pic of the Day

    Rust killed most of the Sud Sprint Cloverleaf's (and normal Sud's) here in the UK, I think I've seen ONE Sprint in the last 20 years or so. Nice car, have fun.

    How much does sustainability drive your e-bike use?

    Oh yes I only use the finest unrefined natural oils (like whale) and waxes (from rare tropical trees) on my bike and ensure to charge it with a portable wind turbine made of recycled wood and a Victorian cast iron mangle that I carry with me on every ride. 🤣

    What did you buy your ebike this week?

    My bikes been on HT pa03a pedals for a couple of years, brilliant pedals, good grip, tough, reliable and won't break the bank at around £35 pair.

    Pic of the Day

    I thought It was a NF14 but wasn't sure as I'd googled Meteor NF variants before I posted. It has a tricolour on what I presume is it's disassembled tail, the lighter blue has me guessing at the Netherlands AF? When was your dad flying them, late 40's early 50's ?

    Here's something you don't see everyday, a Gloster Meteor (night fighter variant, you can tell by the extended nose) in bits resting on some pallets.

    Scared about reliability

    I'm still riding a Moterra 2023 EP8, 4500miles and zero issues with motor or battery (I think earlier EP8's had hit or miss quality control, which damned them forever). My advice is on any emtb, is slow down when crossing streams, avoid submerging, and don't pressure wash anywhere near the...

    120 Nm update for the Bosch CX and CX Race Announced

    Just as a matter of interest, May the Fourth for the update, as in Star Wars , 'may the force be with you'...... coincidence, I think not.
