3:10 This is actually a remarkably wonderful way to show larger riders how the bike can still work for them. By virtue of the life of a bike reviewer, most are rather fit. So when a 250lb man (me) watches those reviews, it does little to tell me how the bike will perform. Whether this was your motivation or not, thank you.

Don’t ebikes like these require registration and insurance in the UK? Since the motor is >250 watts and it has moped-like throttle. Thank goodness don’t need that nonsense in the US (just with the problem of almost non-existent biking infrastructure in the US).

Nice touch adding your nephews and asking the for what could be better and later addressing it by saying the lower center of gravity provides better stability. I had my mind set on a Trek and now I'm convinced that the RadPower Plus is the e-bike for me. Thanks so much for creating this review. Well done!

I recently purchased this bike. I really like it except for the seat. The seat is fixed with no adjustment to move it forward or backward only up or down. Thus, I am changing the seat post and seat. I'm a short person 5'5" tall. Because there is no adjustment on this fixed seat-, the seat is welded to the Seatpost, it doesn't lean like a regular bike so you have to be very careful turning. Another option is to take the seat out and use the back pad as your seat. This is the problem with not being able to ride a bike before purchase. If you're fortunate to have one of the few shops that carry this bike then realize this can be a problem for those who like to lean into their turns on a bike.

Done 500 miles in 4 months on my rad. Regularly go on canal paths and through Epping forest this winter. Such a fun ride. In the settings you can increase speed to 20mph. 25miles range max power or 35/40 in eco. Bit slow up hills but it’s heavy. Sometimes I get error code but a prod on the connectors usually sorts it out. Still rideable when battery goes but it’s tough especially after doing 40miles. I love my rad. Only one puncture. But now I go everywhere with slime, spare Amazon inner tubes, levers, 15mm wrench and a pump. Funnily enough I fixed the puncture with a slime patch at Halfords and it’s been running fine for the last 350 miles. They (Halfords) thought I may not be able to get home with the patch. 10/10 bike.

I own one, and let me tell you this, you can go up some SERIOUS hills with large gradients on level 5 assist and in 1st gear and not even break a sweat. Easy peazy. However, as the battery begins to wain (two bars left) the bigger grade ones you will have to get off and put it in walk mode. For reference I weigh 155 pounds. After riding a ton of hills in my area it seems the battery never dies. I have only two complaints, it doesn't always find gears 1, 2 and 3 with authority and the seats are like sitting on a rock. Thanks for the review Micah!

I love this bike and have put about 500 miles on it so far. Stock seat is terrible but for $150 you can swap it out with a good suspension post and saddle. A huge benefit to the suntour post is that you sit a few inches further back making pedaling a lot more comfortable. I still keep the stock seat for my wife since she’s shorter and lowers it flush with the bench. Highly recommend this bike!

That the standard seat is terrible, but can easily be replaced with the same size seat post (for another $150) is something that should have been mentioned in the review. Not one single criticism was mentioned, except for the bike being "a little heavy," which it certainly is.

To show how impressive this bike is to ride, I have a little story. My wife and I have talked about getting ebikes for several years, but she is kind of thrifty(she throws nickels around like they are manhole covers), and we never pulled the trigger on buying them. On labor day, friends came by on their bikes(our back yard abuts a gorgeous 20+ mile paved bike trail in northern Indiana) and one of them had a new Radrunner plus. They insisted that we try it out, so we both rode it up the trail a ways and back. I was amazed, but my wife was totally blown away. After they left, she had me immediately order two!

Where I live is nearly perfect for a bike like this; we have trail systems that connect all the population centers to the city. If we have an issue (aside from weather), it's that trails are still treated as less of a priority to keep open than roads. You'll literally find the trail closed, often for months (even years) because of this.

I have a Rad Rover....for the money it is the best value proposition I have found. Other companies offer "similar" form-factors for a few dollars less (or Much, Much More) But Rad offerings hit that sweet spot between price, performance and durability combined with responsive support and customer service. Add the fact that basic parts, along with "upgrades" are easy to find off-the-shelf or from a growing number of on-line vendors. While you can purchase parts directly from Rad, most items are not strictly proprietary meaning you can anticipate using their bikes for many years to come.

I installed a suspension post and comfortable seat for $80 sat a local bike shop. The radrunner plus is perfect for me. Other competitors don’t have an adjustable seat so that if you don’t perfectly match the height of seat you just don’t match up at all. The frame with the over kill welds looks like it would hold 500 pounds or more. The suspension fork may not be necessary for riding paved toads but is appreciated whenever I hit even a small flaw in the pavement

It's a very nice bike. I've had it since December and it's a joy to ride. On packed snow, it was slippery so i switched for Kenda Krusades which helped a bit. Unfortunately, because of salt and the fact i can't rinse it off without freezing everything, rust is a big issue on everything that's made of steel but since it's only the gears, the chain and some other small components, it shouldn't be too expensive to replace those in the future. Next winter, i'll have to find a solution for that though.

Great review, however, all the other reviews have a two sided kickstand where yours is a single sided one. That is strange to me. I ordered one and now I'm worried that it will come like yours. Also, what did you do to get the third person view? It is very cool. I'm guessing a drone. Thanks.

I prefer the RadRunner single speed to this. It hits the sweet spot, imo. Gears aren't all that beneficial to this runabout and the added complexity is a big turn-off over the single speed. Same goes for the front suspension vs a rigid fork. It's just not that beneficial for the type of riding that this bike is intended for. The balloon tires make the rigid fork ok for pavement and light trails. The base RadRunner hits KISS just right. Keep It Simple Stupid. As a bonus, it's cheaper too!

I’m debating between the cyrusher Kommoda and this bike for carting my 6 year old to and from the beach on pavement. I’m only 5’3 though and need the stability and to touch the ground. It’s such a hard call when I can’t test ride one. Curious which you would choose in my case.

I’ve been riding my 8000w E Bike from Sahara Bikes for a few months now. Absolutely wild how fast this goes. Planning to get the 5000w for son for his birthday this year. Highly recommend you guys check them out. This bike seems ok. Really cool bike, These guys need to try out the bikes from Sahara Bikes. Their ET Bike is fully electric, with 4 speed manual transmission and clutch. Would love to see these guys test it out. I've owned these bikes before, they were ok. But all i have been riding as of late is the Wild Coyote E Bike from Sahara Bikes, Y’all need to check them out if you want something superior. Really want to see these guys review the Sahara Bikes Wild Coyote E bike, I;ve heard nothing but good things from the research i've been doing, but there still isn't much on it.

Did you find the motor noisier than other older models like the 2018 Rad City? I find ours rides very different than the city, there’s like a lag in the power kicking in and it’s sluggish in lower power settings compared to the City. Thoughts?

You can buy a battery adapter from Bolton Bikes and then attach a battery from any company to it. Found a Hailong 48v 14ah locally for $100 and now use it as a backup.
