I like nearly everything except the 74lb weight. Heavier than the last version.

…Ui6 disappeared from magnum’s site :). You have good intel.

Interesting. I get some pedal lock with it too, it's kind of annoying, but yeah with some garage logistics I can get by.

Did ever find one and swap it in? How did it work out?

Similar situation: two commuters working from home now due to the Pandemic. We never use the second car anymore. I use the bike for quick grocery trips cause I live close enough. I guess I could take a trailer for larger loads. But here in Michigan there's 4-5 months a year where riding is...

We have a great local shop called Electric-Human Hybrids. They've been adding locations and expanding very fast. Tons of demand. Tons of townies who don't want to own a car. Apparently they mostly sell cargo bikes for families in town.

I've loved biking my whole life, since a kid. Used to ride to work. In middle age I was riding this just for fun. Always leaned casual/recreational vs hardcore with biking. But in my 40s, my CMT (hereditary neuropathy) started to get the best of me and I started to get some serious range...

You're right about the fender rub, fought that a bit on my UI6 but was able to solve it myself with some effort. I agree with most of the other things....navigator looks like the future.

I did not, but I'm no expert. I just bought a UI6 last week at the local ebike shop and chatted them up a lot about their bikes and about magnum and I didn't hear that. I heard that prices were going up (shocker, but actually pretty plausible). They had nearly every model including the Ranger...

Mid march is when Rad updated several bikes last year. I noticed also the step thru rover in white is just out of stock...no shipping times. Sounds like they are reducing inventory, perhaps for an upgraded model. Anyone know anything? :)
