Dear Golden Eagle,
I just wanted to take the
opportunity to
thank you for your bike
engine kit. I ordered
a 32 cc Tanaka engine,
my son (11 years old)
and I mounted it ourselves
in about an hour.
The most challenging part
was installing
the new axle, but we eventually
got it.
My wife and I have two
gas guzzlers for vehicles,
and it got to the point
that I told my wife
that we are going to need
to sell one if
we don't make some changes
in our gas consumption.
I followed a guy riding
his bike about 30
mph on level ground without
pedaling, I stopped
him and talked with him
awhile, as well as
rode his bike, and the
rest is history. I
ordered the kit and I had
my new economical
commuter vehicle. I thought
I would enjoy
riding it, but I never
new how much I would
enjoy going my 14 miles
round trip to work.
Everyday I ride my bike;
I save about $5.00,
which equals close to $150.00/month.
I am
able to ride on bike paths,
bike lanes, and
residential streets, which
are all very safe.
The purchase and installation
of your bike
engine on my Giant Rincon
was very easy.
It runs like a dream, and
even though I have
only put 200 miles on the
engine, I am convinced
it is the best thing since
sliced bread!
Thank you for putting together
such a reliable
and easy kit to install.
I look forward to
saving a lot of money,
the open air, and
having a lot of fun! Attached
is a picture
of my setup, which is a
commuting machine.
My bike includes: Odometer/speedometer,
bell,
mirror, headlight, taillight,
reflective
tape, rear rack retrofitted
for the front,
seat pack. I no longer
dread the 7 mile uphill
commute home at the end
of the day!
Thanks again for a quality
product.
