Pedals

Pedals. Many times as we try out or ride bikes , we do not pay attention to the pedals that our feet are on . Most pedals for normal shoes and riding are very comfortable . As such, as we ride the bike, we just do not think about the pedals under our feet
What many people might not know is that most bikes under 1000 dollars retail have pedals with less then impressive bearing races. What this means is that after as little as 1 year of normal riding , the pedals do not run smooth and are starting to have end play which results in noisy and poor performance for the rider . The good news is that the bike industry does make a number of pedals that far exceed lower quality ones . Here at supersized cycles , we understand the value of having not only a larger pedal that will fit our client's feet ,but also having a bearing structure in the pedal that will give the lasting support that our customers have come to expect from us .
Happy pedaling

Your gear

HI Tim here with a reminder that if you have not been out riding yet, maybe it's time !! Take some time to sort through your gear and make sure that everything is ready to go . Check your helmet that so that it is adjusted right . Find the shoes you like to wear . Clean out your water bottles . Look at your bike again and make sure that there is air in the tires . Wipe it down if it is dusty. Just make sure that everything is ready to go so that when you have a chance to go for a ride, you can just hop on and go instead of using half the time you have looking for things ! It sure does bring a smile to my face as I am feeling the breeze from the ride again . See you out there!!

more on electric bikes

I'm on an electric bike role, and I want to tell you about the brand we carry.

IZip electric bikes vary in the amounts of weight and height they are designed to support. You'll find models that can handle up to 500 lbs, but you'll want to check the specifications to make sure you select a bike that truly meets your needs. These electric bikes can also accommodate many different heights from 5’ to over 6’.

Right now we are working on making some of the iZips we sell even stronger. Tim, my bike guru (you'll meet him soon, because he's going to start blogging a bit, too) is upgrading some key stress points on the bikes so they can carry heavier weights. Can't wait--we NEED this!

The bicycle seat is comfortable and the wheels are extra large. Some available features include extra wide comfort designed saddles with back support and adjustable comfort bars with grips. You can ride along at your own pace and get a much needed boost of power for tough hills. The more you ride your electric bike the more peddle power you will be able to add.

There are different models of the IZip electric bikes that offer you different features. Some models have storage spaces for you to bring along everything you need. These storages spaces are great for quick runs to the store and library. You can store anything you pick up along the way.
