From St. Augustine, Florida
I like everything about riding a bicycle
but the peddling. Sitting up high with the
wind in my face, and parking right up front
where ever I go is great.
I have owned 2 electric scooters and 2 gas-powered
bicycles. The electric units are heavy, short
on range and performance. When I finish my
trip it takes 4 to 6 hours to recharge before
I can go again. The gas-powered bicycle was
better. Its performance was good and refueling
took only a minute. Unfortunately the friction
drive on the tire slipped on take off much
of the time and almost didn't work if the
tire got wet.
The solution came from Golden Eagle. The
belt drive works better than advertised.
The engine runs like a dream. I now have
over 450 miles on my bike with the belt drive
in rain and shine. This unit has turned my
bicycle into reliable, fuel efficient, low
cost transportation.
I live in Florida and have no desire to pedal
a bicycle in 90 degree heat to an air-conditioned
restaurant to enjoy a meal. I think a bicycle
has two roles in life. One is to be used
for exercise and the other is for transportation.
If you ride a bicycle with this motor you
might join the group of weird people that
have weed eater motors but don't do lawns.
By the way Golden Eagle is a great company,
with a great product, and excellent customer
service.
