Specifications

Features

Patented Aluminum Folding Frames - Fabricated from aircraft grade aluminum, the G Plus Mariner Sport’s frame is designed for strength, portability, comfort, quality and longevity while maintaining a unique style. An overlapping Heavy Duty adjustable folding mechanism with an integrated safety latch assures the easy 15 second fold while offering the strength of a rigid frame.

Ships Fully Assembled - The Mariner Sport’s 3 way fold allows the bicycle to be shipped fully assembled. There are no requirements to install any components when receiving the bicycle. Even the pedals are installed and the Mariner is fully adjusted and tested before shipping. You will be up and riding in a few minutes.

USA Built - All Prodeco electric bicycles are designed, assembled and quality controlled in the USA. Bicycles are produced on a daily basis in our Florida facility with no inventory being built older than 1 week prior to shipping. This allows for all components including batteries to remain 100% fresh and the latest stock. Overseas quality control is not consistent and the reason behind Prodeco’s reasoning for building the Mariner Sport in the USA.

2 Year Front to Back Warranty - A full part replacement EZ warranty remains in effect for 2 years from the date of purchase. If any component fails during this time, it will be replaced for a new component. EZ warranty replacement includes full motor wheel replacement. If for any reason your motor fails during the first 2 years, Prodeco will replace the complete wheel including rim and spokes. The new wheel will ship fully balanced and with the Motor’s easy disconnect; only a few minutes is required for removal and installation. LiFePO4 batteries are fully warranted for 2 years with no prorating. If your battery fails on month 23, a new LiFePO4 battery will be shipped.

Rust and Corrosion Resistant - The outdoor environment is a bike’s worst enemy. The Mariner Sport utilizes aluminum alloys, stainless steels and cromoly for 95% of all components and hardware. We understand the importance of year after year use, and an owner’s need for their bike to remain rust and corrosion free with continued performance and good looks. Small attention to details such as an alloy cap headset, alloy chain guard and stainless steel spokes have been implemented throughout the bicycle.

Black Pearlescent Finish - The Mariner Sport features a black pearlescent finish with multitudes of diminutive flakes covered in a 3D deep clear. The decals are placed under the clear as not to scratch or peel. All major components are either polished black or sandblasted black and anodized for protection.

LiFePO4 Li-ion Battery Systems - Manganese and Cobalt have been the main choice in Lithium cathode material used for the lithium electric bicycle market over the past three years. The high cost but low life expectancy (700 cycles) of these batteries fails to offer the longevity required by most ebike riders. LiFePO4, the latest lithium technology increases the cycle life to 2000 plus. The LiFePO4 system is highly more stable, can charge at higher amps and does not deteriorate with heat unlike the majority of the current ebike lithium batteries.

Throttle Powered - The Mariner Sport’s motor is controlled via a variable throttle. Throttling permits riders to pedal when they prefer and establish assist according to their requirements, i.e (steep hill, no pedaling effort, bad knee, etc...). A light twist of the throttle produces a slow and soft ride while the full twist of the throttle generates a quick and exhilarating ride.

Quick Disconnect 200W Motor - At only 5.5 lbs, the Prodeco 200W mini brushless HUB motor offers high performance at a high efficiency. 200 watts is sufficient to allow a rider to power at twice the average speed of a traditional bicycle rider pedaling. With electric bicycles, the marriage of the motor, controller and battery is crucial in offering a decent range per charge cycle. 200W will allow a 20% increase in distance per charge versus 250W while only reducing MPH by 1-2.  250W upgrades are available at no additional charge but can decrease distance by 20%, please check with your authorized dealer or Prodeco directly for a free upgrade. The 200W motor also incorporates Prodeco’s quick weatherproof disconnect directly at the motor, tire or tube changes are no longer an issue when comparing to other electric bikes. The connector located within a few inches from the motor allows for a two-second disconnect and the motorized wheel can be easily removed hassle free.

Quick Connect Controllers - Electric bicycle controllers are the brain to the functions of an ebike. The Mariner Sport’s controller is a maintenance free sealed unit. If the controller ever has an issue, it can be changed within a few minutes due to the Mariner’s use of a wire harness and simplified connectors. Issue proof connectors allow for connecting or disconnecting the controller in a matter of seconds.

Cartridge Bearing Headsets - The Mariner Sport uses an upper and lower cartridge bearing headset with a sealed aluminum alloy cap for high strength, years of issue free performance, and zero rust.

Sealed Bearing Bottom Brackets - To maintain the concept of no maintenance, the Mariner Sport utilizes Prodeco’s maintenance-free sealed cartridge bearing system for the bottom bracket. Prodeco’s bottom bracket contains an axle/spindle made of cromoly for higher strength and resistance to rust and spins freely on dual maintenance free sealed bearings. A standard 68/73 BSA ENG measurement is used.

Sealed Bearing HUBs - The front motor HUB and rear wheel HUB float on maintenance free sealed bearings for a flawlessly smooth ride. For additional service free issues, both HUBs are fabricated out of aluminum alloy for zero rust.

Alloy Chain Guard - Chain Guards on the Mariner Sport are aluminum alloy and not the plastic or steel found on most bikes, they will not rust and are lightweight. To add a little flare, Prodeco utilized CNC machining for cut outs and etching for a stylish look.

KMC K810 Chain - KMC’s K810 chain has stretch proof pins for durability, an anti-drop design and special configuration plates. The chain is amazingly eye catching with the use of two tone chain plates.

High Performance Braking System - The Mariner Sport utilizes a Promax DSK400 Front Caliper and Polygon Disc Rotor with a TX120 Rear V Brake holding aluminum cartridges and RED shoes. XL-86 Levers (Promax’s Best) complete the system. Not only is this for the purpose of advanced performance braking, but also for the ease of adjusting and servicing. Disc Calipers include a “Tool-Free” clearance adjustment knob for on-the-fly adjusting, and rear Aluminum Cartridges allow for a one-minute shoe replacement. All brakes feature a Distinctive Charcoal Finish.

12G Stainless Steel Spokes - Stainless Steel 12G spokes are thicker and up to 100% stronger than the typical 14G spokes found on most traditional bicycles. The added strength will offer years of issue-free performance while sacrificing minimally in weight savings. Stainless steel is used for its natural resistance to rust and high strength and anodized in Black for a dramatic and sporty look.

Double Wall Rim - Rim strength is important with any bicycle; but, with electric bicycles it is of utmost importance. Electric bicycles consistently travel at higher speeds than traditional bikes.  With the added strength of 12G spokes and a motorized HUB, rims have to be above standard strength. The Mariner Sport uses a slightly wider 24mm rim than typically found on a 20” wheel. The Mariner Sport’s rim side corners are double walled along with a double wall for the base offering improved strength and resistance to flexing. They were specifically manufactured for 12G spokes and the perfect match for Prodeco’s high performance 200W motor.

Kenda Low Resistance Tires - As with any ebike, tire choice is critical for distance per charge. The Mariner Sport’s use of Kenda’s SRC Comfort Contacts allow for low resistance and smooth riding with a solid road surface grip. Kenda’s SRC line best attributes are the low rolling resistance, extreme durability and high tread longevity wrapped all into one universal package.

Quick Release Rear Axle - The Quick Release “QR” axle offers a “tool free” 30-second rear wheel removal for flats, service or as a theft deterrent. With the quick removal of the rear axle, the bike will no longer be able to be ridden and tire or tube changes are a breeze.

Suspension Seat Post - An aluminum alloy suspension seatpost smoothes out the rear bumps while the suspension forks smooth out the front. The pre-tension is fully adjustable for a softer or firmer ride. Dual front & rear adjusting bolts in barrel nuts permits an easy adjustment in pivoting the saddle nose’s incline or decline.

Folding Handlebar with Height Adjustability - Riders come in all sizes and with the Mariner Sport’s adjustable height handlebar, riders from 5’ 3” to 6’ 3” can adjust it for optimum comfort. The handlebar also folds to further reduce the size of the bicycle upon being folded.

Folding Aluminum & Nylon Pedals - High quality double bearing folding pedals are included with all Mariners. The pedals use an aluminum body with a nylon cage floating on double bearings over a cromoly spindle. No plastic folding pedals here!

Frame Mounts - The Mariner Sport has incorporated frame mounts for water bottles and fenders. The traditional sized mounts are welded directly to or through the frame. Stainless Steel hex bolts are included.

Braided Housings & Stainless Steel Cables - Braided and Lined housings with stainless steel cables are an added layer of protection and durability. All housings are lined for the smoothest braking while inner stainless steel cables allow for rust and corrosion resistance. The addition of the braided layer not only increases the strength of the cable housing but adds an attractive detail typically reserved for only custom built bicycles.
