    Plastic bags, climate change, renewable energy,

    Fuel cells will have a much better efficiency, but they are not competing with fuel cells so they did not compare. Their potential market would be owners of established, or soon to be built, Gas Turbines that may become stranded assets if carbon is priced or restricted heavily. A retrofit to...

    Plastic bags, climate change, renewable energy,

    Just got back from a Gas Turbine conference and one of the OEM's was pretty excited about running their test bed on 100% hydrogen. I think the next 10 years is going to be very interesting, and no-one probably knows with any confidence what the energy grid will look like in 2030.

    Why Ebikes have small front chainrings?

    On a serious note, the Bosch motor has internal gearing, so the front of is pretty small. Something like a 15t. Al the other motors, like Brose, Shimano, Yamaha have a conventional sized chainring. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

    All Mountain Tyres

    OK, long time no posts but thought I'd share my experience. I've never been a big fan of Minion DHF's, because that vague feeling at mid lean always messed with my confidence. A few months ago i put a Minion DHF 2.5 3C WT on the front with a slaughter on the rear. It sucked balls with both...

    I can't see all the SC posers going for such an ugly bike.

    Bottle Cages with tool storage - What are the options?

    No, I didn't get anything as I've been off the bike with an injury. The new one-up tool kit that fits inside your steerer looks nifty, but could be a while away from being on sale. If you not sure what I'm on about check Richie Rudes instagram.

    HR getting high / Heart stress test

    i have a very high MHR. I'm in my mid 30's and my MHR is 200-210 depending on how much exercise I've been doing. I recently had a stress test at a cardiologist for some other reasons, and they put me through an accelerated test because i looked fit (an I think it was getting close to closing...

    The election thread - Two middle-late aged white men trying to be blokey and convincing..., same old shit, FFS.

    This http://www.abc.net.au/news/elections/wa-election-2017/results/ is an absolute smashing. This will shock the Coalition (they expected a loss but not this magnitude) and precipitate some sort of action from them. I don't know which way they will veer, because I don't know how they perceive...
