CodyDog - thanks for the fork info! I would like to do the same on my 2018 RR. Curious; what made you choose the Surly Ice Cream Truck over the Surly Pugsley?

Checking in to see if you made the change? I would like to do the same if this fork is compatible with the 2018 RR. The the price is right, and it appears to have better mounting options for a front pannier rack? Any idea if the stock brakes will fit this fork?

Greetings! What frame bag are you using?

@CodyDog: Congrats! Exciting isn't it? These are so enjoyable to ride. My rover will be replacing my car as my primary means of transportation. I was totally sold on these as a functional means of transport (and genuine value) after my first test ride at their Seattle headquarters...

Greetings all! Has anyone found a decent set of 3rd party *full* fenders that fit the 2018 RadRover? I'd like to buy a set from Rad Power Bikes, but they do not currently have a product available. I understand they are only in the prototype stage of a new set of fenders, but it could take...
