And yes, I did modified the engine/battery recently to cut down on my commute time (typically 18-20+ mph instead of 14-17mph)... Again, the problem is that I like to pedal (hard) but at that speed, the pedal is useless.
So let me know if you know the spec as I didn't find anything in the owners manual.

leamcorp I'm one of the people to add a triple chain wheel. Mine is a Shimano FC-C051, 28,38,48T, the derailleru is an SRAM X-9 High Clamp for 1 1/8 (I think seat tube diameter, measure to be sure), I can't locate the number of my quick Shifter just now. I call my system reverse polish, the quick shift (front derailleur) is on the right with the standard eZip rotary shift on the left.
I'll try to get better info on the shifter soon. Right now I'm getting my road bike and my legs ready for a 6 day, 500 mile, Niagara Falls to Saratoga Springs trip a week from sat with 200 other crazy people. It's called the Great Big FANY Ride (where FANY stands for Five hundred miles Across NY). I got parts that need fixin.
