Important Announcement from Golden Eagle
- July 5th, 2008
This last month has put Golden Eagle to the
test with regards for high
demand, severe
damaging weather conditions,
computer and
network issues (Comcast
small business),
and being able to attain
the massive amounts
of parts from many our
U.S. based suppliers.
We are feeling the crunch
of the current
economic conditions from
all over the United
States; from layoffs and
skeleton crews of
the many companies we support,
just trying
to keep their doors open.
All our mount parts
are manufactured in the
US, providing jobs
for American workers. It's
unfortunate that
so many US manufacturers
have trimmed their
staff - orders are taking
a little longer
to ship than they (and
we) had anticipated.
We ask your understanding
as you bear with
us through our growing
pains - our suppliers
are having a little trouble
staying up with
the increased volume of
our orders. We are
proud to be an American
company with ties
all over the continental
U.S., giving jobs
to many places that would
otherwise have
to close their doors due
to the fact of the
rising cost of oil and
the strain it puts
on ALL forms of business
in the service and
industrial sector.
We do not tell you this as an excuse because
we are truly dedicated to providing a great
customer experience and keeping our riders
happy, and informed as to the status of their
orders and the current state of our business.
We wish we could have foreseen the huge impact
of this years sales ahead of time - but we
are a small company with limited capital,
and have seen our share of growing pains
this summer.
We are VERY happy with
the amount of interest
and support we have received
from our riders
and will continue to work
7 days a week to
get everyone on the road
as soon as parts
are available to us.

NEWS
** May 15th, 2008 - Chris, a customer from Surrey BC, Canada
sent in a video this
morning that we wanted
to share with you
all. We hope you
enjoy
it as much as we
did!
"My Golden Eagle Recumbent - I built
my bike last year with the intention of it
being powered from the beginning. I have
been riding for two seasons now and it is
great. I have already put 500KM on it this
year.
Here is a video
of my commute:"
** March 16th, 2004 - A copy of the article from the Popular Mechanics Magazine has been posted on their website
about our bicycle
motor. If you were unable
to view the March
2004 issue, you can read
it here.
Golden Eagle's patented geared belt, positive
drive system allows for a more efficient
power transfer, from the engine to the wheel,
over friction drive or gear reduction chain
drives. You do not have to put up with a
big, noisy (oil spitting) engine to achieve
desired performance, speed or pick-up.
Many of our customers are
commuters, disabled
or seniors - GEBE is committed
to providing
reliable, affordable transportation.
Our
2-Stroke and 4-Stroke engines
are extremely
well built for long life,
dependability and
fuel efficiency, while
meeting Carb Tier
II EPA requirements. Coupled
with our efficient,
geared belt power transfer
system results
in the most dependable,
easy to install and
use, best mileage and environmentally
friendly
bicycle assist engine kit
available.
The Golden Eagle mount
kit without the engine is available for you "Do-It-Yourself"ers;
those who can't afford the Best but have
a good engine gathering dust in the garage
and for the 'unfortunates' - deceived by
our competitor's claims. Clean that engine
off and four bolts will attach it to the
GE drive. These Mount Kits without Engine
fit flat-head engines with either a 52mm
or 76mm clutch. **Click for Details** Recycle that engine, put it on the Golden
Eagle drive and learn how that engine really
Wants to perform!
Easy assembly and installation
usually requires
only 30 minutes to 1 hour.
Snap the Drive
Ring on the rear wheel,
install four nuts
and bolts, one screw for
the kill button
and slide the mount strap
into place on the
rear axle. The trigger
throttle clips on
your handlebars for use
with your thumb or
finger, whichever is more
comfortable for
you to use. We recommend
you have front And
rear brakes on your bicycle.
ALL components of the Golden Eagle drive
- mount unit, drive ring, gears, belts, throttle
- are 100% made in the USA - to US standards
and provide American jobs. The mount parts
are stamped US steel with a rust proof coating.
The trigger throttle is spring loaded - pull
on the trigger to go - release the pressure
to slow down or come to a complete stop.
There is no shifting of levers or any type
of clutch movement necessary for stop and
go riding.
The automatic centrifugal
clutch allows engine
to disengage when you let
off on the gas
to slow down, stop or idle
- like the automatic
transmission of your car.
No dangerous levers
to push! Control of bike
can be maintained
at all times with Both
hands on the handlebars!
The Drive Ring is made
of nylon, reinforced
gear material, for long
life and durability.
Fits 24", 26"
or 700c wheels with
32 or 36 spokes. Rotate
the ring over your
wheel until the spoke slots
align with wheel's
spokes, using our 4n1 Ring/Spoke/Gear
Key;
the spokes easily click
into the slots. Securely
fits most spoke sizes from
15 gauge to 12
gauge. **Click here for 'How to' use our 4n1 Key**
With our patented design,
the drive ring
is self centering, there
is no adjustment
- one piece to install
and it doesn't come
off easily. The Drive Ring
requires 1 1/4
inch between the rear fork
and the spokes
for proper clearance. **Click here for How to measure**
The geared Drive Belt is
Kevlar reinforced
for long life and durability.
Although most
of our customers find the
belt will last
for more than a year, riding
style dictates
belt life. Breaking strength
of 1280 lbs.
Extend the life of your
belt, reduce stress
and pedal a stroke or two
as you take off
or accelerate.
The unit comes with a custom
molded Safety
Cover for the moving parts.
One eighth inch clearance is required on
each side of the axle for the Lower Mount
Strap, a total of 1/4 inch. There is ample room on most bike axles
for the lower mount strap.
The GEBE mount kit will
fit even the larger
diameter tire sizes - up
to 26 x 2.125
Why is Geared Belt Drive better than Friction
or Chain Drive?
No excessive tension, friction or vibration
to cause bike parts to fatigue, engine to
wear out or burn tires up.
The geared belt is a more efficient (and
less expensive) method of transferring power
from engine to wheel - ever wonder why motorcycle
manufactures now use the geared belt?
Better traction under any conditions: rain,
puddles, muddy roads, snow, sand, trail riding
or on the road.
No rollers to rub hole in tire, especially
when wet - even 'morning dew' wet..
Pressure is evenly distributed to the entire
wheel not just the tire; Will not cause the
rim to warp or excessive tire wear.
Positive drive system allows for more efficient
power transfer from engine to wheel.
Simple, Easy to change drive gears for multiple
riding conditions - No adjustment or re-alignment
required.
Our smaller, Quieter, lighter engines yield
much better gas mileage And performance!
Easy to engage belt tension lever for pedaling
or engine use.
No dangerous lever on handlebar to impale
rider.
No heavy gear boxes to add excessive weight
and suck up the engine's power.
Our Lightweight, Trim unit sits well within
the pedal crank and below the seat.
No limitation of tire selection: aggressive,
trail or street.
You can even keep your fender, you can't
do That with a friction (scrubber) drive.
GEBE's well balanced design allows use of
kickstand that came with your bike.
Since Golden Eagle entered the scene a few
years ago, we've watched our competitors
claims double on performance but they still
use the same engines(?). Their units have
jumped from 120mpg and 25mph to 200mpg and
45mph - BUT, there have been No changes to
the mount and they still use the same engines(?).
How'd they do that? GEBE lists the Total
weight - engine and mount - they only list
engine weight. We post performance of our
engines with a 200+lb rider and DB's are
measured 3ft (or distance from engine to
rider's ear). You can count on receiving
performance within 5% of GEBE claims.
