RAD Radcity 3 power bike
Buyer beware- parts may not be available
I bought (2) RAD bikes last April. The bikes are good quality and we love riding electric bikes. When I received the bikes I noticed one had a defective back fender so I called RAD customer service. I sent pictures and spoke to representatives many times. They agreed to replace it. I have been waiting 9 months as the fender is supposedly on back order but I don't think it will ever arrive. Shortly after I bought the bikes they discontinued the model. I would not have purchased bikes from RAD had I known that parts would not be available on a brand new one. A few months ago, after some prodding they sent me a replacement fender from a different model but it doesn't fit. Now they suggest I go to a local bike shop to see if they can jerry-rig something. Why should I have to jerry-rig my new bike at my own expense that came from the factory with a defective fender?Rad Mini 4
Not the service we hoped for.
Rad Power Bikes told us they would honor a $100 Rad Power Bikes issued rebate to purchase a bike rack for my Rad Mini 4. They did not. Rad has not had the rack in stock for over 6 months. Our $100 Rad Power Bikes issued rebate was set to expire and still after 6 months, they have had no racks available. They refused to extend the rebate and I was not able as yet to get the rack their lying representative said we could get. I assure you that you cannot trust this company or their staff.2018 rad rover
Was a decent bike until I got a few thousand miles on it. Then things started to fail. The bike quit mid ride and I’ve replaced every electric component but the motor as it’s been in order for over 2 1/2 months. No eta on parts. If you want a good bike and service stick with the name brands and your local bike shop where they can actually get parts and fix your bike. I cannot reccomend this product to anyone due to lack of parts and service
Radrunner
My Criteria for this bike as that it would require minimum maintenance, Could carry a good sized load. and go over 15 miles distance at 20 mph reliably even when the batteries where getting a little old. That it would work well on pavement as that is where I do 99% of my riding. Finally it needed to be a comfortable ride. The Radrunner is one speed. As I have had ebike for many years I have fund that I rarely use more then one speed. I has high torque maiking it good at hills. It does not have suspension forks which I like as they are not needed or desired unless riding off road or on gravel.
The bike along with the accessories I wanted to add needed to com under $2000
The Handle bars have a lot of real estate for adding accessories.
Having only one speed and no suspension reduces the maintanence.
Cons
Soft Start makes is sluggish to start from a stand still. This can not be changed with the stock display
The headlight is not good for driving at night but will let others see you. Thou thay offer an upgrade
The display is very minimal and the upgraded display only allows a minmum ability to change parameters.
The $300 bolton controller upgrade will give it a lot more torque and allow changing parameters such as elmiminating the soft sluggish start with instant start.
Their customer service is abysmal and is reputed to be the worst in the business. My personal experience has found this to be true. This also makes their warranty all but useless.
In this price range that are a number of other moped style ebikes that are comparable from companies that have decent customer service which would make it difficult to recommend this bike over their competitors.Rad Rover
I purchased a Rad Rover in 2018. Since this time I have road just over 1000 miles over a variety of surfaces including snow, sand, mud and pavement. Unfortunately, the bike recently stopped showing mph/miles driven. The problem has been progressive as now the display has stopped working and I am no longer able to charge the batter due to it overheating. I contacted the company via email. Almost two weeks later I received a reply to check all the connections which I did. Since this time I have not been able to receive further insight to a potential issue. I have called and emailed.
Before my recent issues I would have rated the bike at 5/5. I now rate the bike as a 3/5 with a recommendation of not buying the bike due to the absence of support.
