36T! Not a lot of torque but huge top end! When I still had this thing it would pull me up inclines at 30-40 but took quite a distance to build up speed as seen in the video.What tooth sprocket are you running?
That must be a pretty steep hill to hit 56! I don't think I'd trust my bike at 56 ha! I have a 24" with a 34T (which is about what your are at gearing wise with the 36T) What are you using to measure your speed?36T! Not a lot of torque but huge top end!

I have a cheap bike speedometer seen on the handlebars in the video, but it wasn't very accurate. So, I had my friend follow alongside me in his car later when we weren't filming so that we could properly match the speed with the video. He was keeping an eye on how fast we were going and looking for intervals to use when lining up the video(cones, signs).That must be a pretty steep hill to hit 56!

Video is one thing, being there was a completely different story! The video really doesn't do it justice. I guess some people have to see to believe, or see with their own eyes.I want to believe, but it just doesn't seem possible unless you had a decent wind behind you. Even then you'd be screaming. Not trying to discredit you it just seems a little far fetched. You'd be spinning 11,000+rpm at that point.
Everyone speeds on that road! And QC here. small world I guess eh?Like I said I want to believe. I got a bike that will do some decent speeds that is decently modded out. For being a 45mph zone you weren't catching up with the car in front of you very fast, but people speed I can get that too. What part of Illinois you from? We are having a midwest meet near galesburg, Illinois in June and the more the merrier!
There is always extra bikes to ride! Should come anyways! I am in the process of revamping my bike at the moment. There is usually a couple spare bikes that are for break downs, but if you wanted to come there should be a bike for ya! Heck I can even bring an extra bike. Always wanted to make another and while revamping this one anyways I should have dang near everything for another.Excellent! Thanks for the invite. Sadly enough though my bike was stolen after the engine seized and I had to tie it up to a pole. Came back the next day and it was gone. The story is in the youtube vid description. However, this coming monday I'm traveling to pick up my Motoped!
How very generous of you! I'll mark my calendar and make sure my Escape is in decent condition by then!There is always extra bikes to ride! Should come anyways!
