    Rad City Chainring advice to increase top speed! Help Please!

    I got the 11-28 and installed it on my Swagtron EB7+. It made a huge difference. I was able to maintain a cadence in top gear and mode 3. I couldn't do that with the lousy 14-28 gearing. I highly recommend the Drift Maniac 11-28. If you have a lot of hills to climb, then go with the 11-34.

    Changing gears/chainring on Swagtron EB7+

    I purchased a cheap ($700) Swagtron EB7+ about a month or so ago. I got it because it was the only folding bike that would easily fit in the trunk of a Tesla Model 3. The Tesla design language makes the trunk opening small. Any bike thicker than 18 inches will be hard to pass through the trunk...

    @goldconch Thank you so much for your response. I am new to this so please bear with me. if I replace the rear 7 speed gear set with one with fewer teeth, then that would make pedaling more efficient in top gear? Is that correct? If that can be solved with $30 then that is much better than...

    Thanks, but I already watched this, hence my question about the accuracy of the 36 lbs weight. The reviewer mentions that the number is not accurate.

    Volador owners, can you answer my questions?

    Hi all, i am new here. I own a Swagtron EB7 Plus. The reason I got the bike is because it is one of a few affordable ebikes that fit in the trunk of my car. The height opening of the trunk is 19 inches. So any bike thicker than 18 inches will probably be hard to squeeze in there. The issue I...
