Nice to see another Utahn! I'm up here in Heber and have been contemplating on buying a new surron. Have you had to get off the bike on steep hills and have to walk it? Or do you think they work good for most the single tracks in AF canyon? I have multiple pedal ebikes and some steep stuff I have to walk the bike up. I want something where i dont have to as much haha
I mean depending on the terrain and what type of ride you're going on there's no reason why you can't have at least two or three sprockets. Thought you can maybe even go to a 46 if you were just going for flat, speed type ride. A 52 for all around and then a 60 for hilly or climbing rides
I had a 58 tooth sprocket and was hitting around 40 mph then I put a 48 tooth on and my top speed was reduced to 35 mph. Anyone no why how how I can fix it. My front sprocket is stock so 14 tooth and was that way for the 58 and 48.
I put a 54 tooth on my stick bike & it made a big difference, little did I know I could of went with a 58 or 60 tooth . E bikes are different than gas bikes when it comes to gearing. It still. Does 49-50 mph & more torq & im sure better range . & I lost about 1 lb
You'll lose top speed going to 60 for sure. The only reason you went to 54 and didn't really lose top speed was ciz you also went from the oring chain to a regular chain.
MTB riders just need to pull their heads in and accept Surrons, laws aren't changing either us taking over. A trail near me just finished allowing class 2 ebikes (Surrons) with given proof of it being on eco only, but we can just turn it to sport when we get past the check point. Rumors are going around they are allowing class 2 but seriously, people just ride them there regardless... Buy a surron with a 54t sprocket, you will NEVER look back at an ancient push bike
I'd like to see a range comparison between a 48t sprocket and a 60t one on roads.
You would get way less range amd you'd have way less top speed. A 16in rear wheel does the same thing
Someone needs to show these guys how to unlock the Talaria.

Make sure and take a look at the Talaria too:) These bikes are a beast!
I was up AF this weekend and was highly surprised at how well the bike climbed even on the stock sprocket.

No one's gonna change sprockets mid ride for different terrain that silly
Video cut out, how many miles?
Hey thanks for the question. The distance was about 13 miles.
Thanks.

Hey fellas, I got a 60t sprocket! Can I add links to the chain or is it better to get a new chain? Also, what size chain for the 60t?
420 Chain
What ben said, 420 chain

THAT'S AWESOME! Thanks for posting your experience and results.

Taalaria doesn't come with a 48 tooth sprocket
I see people on some MTB trails with these up AF, do people care? I MTB, but want one of these lol.
People don't care and neither should you
